| Quote MattyB="MattyB"Not for one minute do I think Wane will not be gunning for top spot.
Whilst I think he may try different ways to spell senior players in lesser games and try new methods in training to give the team a greater chance of peaking at the business end of the season no way can I see him deliberately forfeiting top spot (if the chance is there). It's not in his nature i'm afraid.'"
In that case he will never be a top class coach under the current rules of SL.

| Quote Rogues Gallery="Rogues Gallery"Does Wane have to win the Superleague or Challenge Cup next season to win your seal of approval or would getting to one of the finals do?'"
Yes he does. This is Wigan RL we are talking about, not St Pats Under 18s.
A schoolboy could work out that it is the playoffs that are vital under the current structure. If Wane cannot then he needs to be removed.
There is no denying his passion and he is a very likeable guy, but he really must learn from his first season in charge. There is absolutely no point in thrashing teams in Feb, only to falter in Sept.

You can top the league and then go on to win a Grand Final you know.
It is pointless being so absolute. You just make yourself look foolish.
You said the same about Madge and see how that turned out.

I appreciate his dedication to Wigan but find him easily dislikeable. I am not sure there are many outside Wigan who do.

Didn't Noble get criticised by some Wigan fans for not getting the "Week in Week out performances" right and instead focussing too much on "Being Right come Play off time"?
Maybe he was right after all?

That would say more about people who dislike anything or anyone assosicated to Wigan RL than it does about him?

| Wane came within a couple of points of taking you to OT. Had you got there I'm pretty sure you too would have beaten Wire. For all the flak he's copping about taking the regular rounds too seriously you missed out by a tiny margin. And while you've changed some players I reckon some pretty minor changes to the approaches of your coaching staff and conditioners will see you being as big a threat as anyone next season.

I'm afraid that kind of talk isn't appreciated round these parts - either be a doom merchant typing with a knife permanently hovering just above your wrist, or never darken our door again.

| Quote XBrettKennyX="XBrettKennyX"I would give Wane another year. Hopefully he WILL learn from last year, put less emphasis on the rounds and peak next September.
If he fails to grasp this simple point he needs to be shown the door.'"
It sounds disturbingly like an evocation to the Leeds blueprint, just do what’s needed to finish in a reasonable play off place, and sod half of the league games (I hope you aren’t thinking this?)because if that’s the right way to win something why don’t we all save are cash, stay at home, watch sky and come back at the end of the season when they all start to play for real. I’m starting to think I’m alone in the wilderness like that poor sod in that song from Oz, feel’n p*ssed off standing in that sweltering pub, with no beer. What’s happening to this great game of ours?
