Congrats on the win, grit and mental determination to give Waney a well deserved final game send off.

No homecoming today? Real shame the club and council couldn’t arrange something for the departing players & coaches

Is it possible to be England/GB coach whilst working in a different competition in a different country. Asking for a friend

Maybe not but maybe he would take the job full time after Bennett finishes? His interview with Hemmings this week sounded like he regretted leaving Wigan and Rugby League and he made a point of saying it was only a part time role with Scotland.

Well you were playing Warrington and a HB combination of Brown and Roberts.

All his career, I think Kev Brown has promised more than he's delivered, and Roberts is very overrated ... So I'm with you on this. But I don't think that's the whole story. Therre were long periods of Wire pressure, which Wigan had to withstand.

It wasn't a spectacle but for both sets of fans a gripping game. Next year Wire probably have the player they needed tonight, Blake Austin. With our departees all else being equal I think play the same game next year and the result might be different. We lose Bateman and Sam T which are significant losses (Sutton we can cover) so unless there are new signings Lam has a job on. Not convinced re Hardaker though hope I am wrong. That said if there is a coach that will keep the best of the Wane era such as the ethos and never say die attitude and improve it, then I think it is Edwards. I just hope that in the meantime Lam is not on a hiding to nothing.

You and me both

He’s already said he’s playing next season and I’m glad he is. He’s been superb this season and is well worth another year.

Agreed,to lose Tommy on top of everyone else would be a big ask for Lam,tommy has come back stronger than ever after a, and lets be fair flat 2017 season but the way he's come back is great to see.
