How much involvement does Wayne have with the first team at the moment? I can see many pluss' to having someone like him at the top of the club if he has been around the first team for a few years.

This is where i would like to see an opportunity/program for coaches to take a step back to a NL club for a year or 2, to really prove there "coaching" ability.

Sorry didnt make myself clear. Obviously a wage would be payable to anyone performing a job at the club. What i meant was when we signed noble, he was under contract at bradford, so we would have had to pay compensation to bradford. And out of work coaches are usually out of work for a reason.

That is what i meant by pay for a coach. Hope that clears it up.


It's certainly true that, thus far, Ian Lenagan doesn't seem keen to pay compo or transfer fees - though we don't know that for a fact. If the right person came along, I hope he'd put his hand in his pocket. I certainly hope so where a new coach is concerned, because you're right, there aren't too many top quality men knocking around out of work at present.

I don't think cheap options are really viable when you're talking about filling the role of head-coach at Wigan RL. This is one of the biggest jobs in the game and, given that the salary cap doesn't apply to it, theoretically money should not be an issue - unless the asking price is totally ridiculous of course.

Regardless of the cash you threw at them i would very much doubt a working NRL coach would be tempted to the UK.

One of the reasons I asked this question was in regards to next seasons signings. We're already being linked with K Leuluai and Lynch so who is targeting these men? IL, Nobby or next seasons coach?


Why is this an issue? Any new coach will have to work with the majority of our squad as it is now. If we do change coach I hope we don't have a repeat of all this "It's not his team" nonsense :FRUSRATED:

Would prefer Noble to stay but if he walks then -
Laurie Daley or Terry Matterson in that order!

A purple patch inspired on his home ground by man of the match WIGAN CAPTAIN Sean O’Loughlin produced three tries in an eight-minute spell just before half-time, and the GB Lions added two more after the break to maintain Smith’s 100 per cent record as Great Britain
coach.
