Wigan Warriors coach Shaun Wane told BBC Radio Manchester:
"Some people within the club [Castleford] have come out with comments saying we're beatable and it's a great game for them and they're very confident.
Many of the comments I've heard have been bordering on disrespectful.
They can be as confident as they want, but they're going to get a tough game this weekend and we'll be trying our best to make sure they don't get that win.
We've played in some big games over these last few years and they've not played in as many, if any, so to be that confident is very risky for them.
They come here with confidence because they've scored a lot of points and beaten us at home, but I wouldn't be overconfident if I was them."

Incidentally Wane's mob got stuffed 16 - 4

I don't think in our current financial plight we could afford Mr Sheen, yet alone Tim Sheens!

Agree with all that, if not harrison get kear in.


When names from the championship get bandied about I'm always amazed that no-one (apart from me) mentions Mark Aston. He might not have the SL experience or, perhaps more significantly, the profile of Powell/Harrison/Kear but despite fewer resources he has once again handed most if not all of them their posteriors on a plate.

Re: Gary Thornton : Tue Oct 16, 2012 8:57 am  
Excellent point about Aston, but I also think the 'secret' of his success has been long term change and consistent, predictable building and using players he wants and being allowed to sacrifice in the short term for longer term development. He is a quality person and I think I am right in saying coaching is not his main job, he couples it with other commitments, so is unlikely to be looking for a full time role no matter how *ahem attractive that might be.

Sadly, in our position and in fairness with the nature of our support, that is simply not an option becuase the patience doesn't exist.....

I've been a big admirer of Mark Aston for a few years. It always amazes me that he is never considered for a step up to SL

Good call. A big question for Saints fans to ponder will be can Nathan Brown follow up the sterling work done by Rush and Cunningham.
