Quote Slugger McBatt="Slugger McBatt"No, not really. I am enjoying the view from afar, so I don't know the whole ins and outs. I don't rate Hanley, and it seems that Wigan fans are doing what Leeds United did at the end of the seventies: bring back some playing greats and everything will be fine. Maybe it would work with Edwards, and he does have genuine coaching credentials (albeit in a much simpler sport - kick, roll in the mud, kick, fly half lays it off to centre coming on the inside, roll in the mud, penalty, take the three points). But if you want a Wigan great, is it Hanley? If personality is all it takes to win Super League, why isn't Dale Winton in charge at St Helens?
I was just querying the obsession with Hanley coming back, when I wonder whether Hanley himself holds Wigan in any great esteem. He is a Leeds lad, was heavily involved in the Leeds set up, and stayed living in Leeds even when he was at Wigan.
As for Noble, he is good at one thing: grunt. It worked once, when he built a side around it. Things have moved on.'"
I stopped reading after the bold finished. it displays a total ignorace, and missing of the point there is no use continuing with the coversation.
