It's either Hanley on board somehow or Lowes sacked.

Hanley as Director of Rugby I reckon.

He'll probably be happy to go there now that it's nearly 20 years since Les Boyd left them. That's the price you pay for having idiots like Boyd involved with your club (and for thinking he's wonderful).

Tony Smith as coach and Lowes moving down to assistant.

Bobbie Goulding was talking about the appointment of a former GB captain as no.2 for the French National Side, on Boots 'n' All.

He mentioned that this player won trophy after trophy. Could this be Hanley?

What has that got to do with Wire?

Hanley's being rumoured with regards to a potential appointment at Warrington. I thought I'd make a post regarding what was said on Boots 'n' All. I'm possibly putting 2 and 2 together to get 5 but I thought there was a chance it could be Hanley as France's no.2 and therefore would not be appointed at Warrington. It was just a thought.

Moran is big palls with Hanley, if Wire get a good coach they could very well win the thing.

Its refreshing to see a club with ability and potential that is underachieving looking to do something about it.

The problem at Wire, and the same wherever there is a club underachieving these days in my opinion cannot be sorted with a straight change of coach. There are clearly players there with apalling attitudes and they will have contracts that go on for another 2, 3 years. You can take over, put all that you think is good in place but be forced to play either the same players or alternately a load of college leavers who aren't ready. Wires problems, like Wigans, will take years to fix whoever is in charge.
