IMO The best target who appears not to be involved in the game at the moment and so must be the most realistic target?....unless we can get morgan away from KR.

Always thought his sacking was massively premature and still think he had alot to prove at wigan.

Anyone know where he is? Get him back!

somebody said the other day he is a sideline reporter on aus tv.

last coach to win us something, we played decent rugby and youth was used.

whelan interfiering lead to him quitting.

would welcome him back, but would he inspire the masses.

I chatted with Adrian Vowles last October, and at the time Stuart was "calling the footy on Fox Sports" as well as running his own business (though I don't know what).

Top coach, and one of the finest man-managers ever in British RL.

Don't see Kear involved tbh.

Lam isn't a bad call to be involved somehow.

Raper did a really good job for us and I was disappointed when he left/was pushed out.

That said, I'm not convinced he's the right man for the club long term. I could however be persuaded otherwise.

As for Kear I don't see it my self. COuldn't see him leaving Wakefield given what's happened there of late. I like Kear and think he's a great motivator however I'm not sure he would be the right man to take us to the top once again.

Lam is a good shout. Not as head coach but I'd love to see him involved in some capacity. Maybe as an assistant?

The more people we can get involved who know and are passionate for the club (like Radders, Lam etc.) the better, though that's not to say I think we should necessarily be looking for a Wiganer to take the head coach role.

I just love the willingness and fight he seems get out of his player, we showed with abit of passion were a decent side against Saints, if we had a coach who got that from them every week i be happy
