I was a big "Wane out" guy, simply because I wanted to see more from us in the weekly rounds. I doubt he's going to change his philosophy, but you know what - he's probably the right guy to go after.
There's been a massive upheaval at the club since he left. We've lost guys like Tomkins, Flower, GW and SOL. We're losing Hastings and possibly Tommy, French and Clubb (from a older head POV) and that's a hell of a lot of experience. Having a proven head coach can't be a bad thing. Especially if, as rumoured, he'll have more say off the field.
Outside of that, there's no one else really available. You look back 12/18 months and the NRL was full of assistants ready to step up. Guys like O'Brian, Fitzgibbon, Demetriou and Peyton would have improved us, but they are all taken.
It is what it is, uninspiring but better than Lam.
