Quote GrahamBray="GrahamBray"When you saw how Wests played at the end of his tenure, they were the Australian example of Hull, during our annual freefall. He looked mentally and physically shot, even though he tried every conceivable way of changing the situation, it was apparent that he could not achieve it and players , such as Luke Brooks looked absolutely fed up of being in that team.
I would take Tony Smith, only because he is a recognised coach, over any assistant and unproven candidates that throw their hat in. My own preference to take the reigns at Hull would be Wane, which I know may not be a popular choice universally among our fans, he is a proven winner, who managed to eek out every drop of effort from his limited Wigan squad. They were aggressive and eager, in defence and all looked desperate to play for the club-the exact opposite of where we are now.'"
The parallels with us and Wests is scary
It would be interesting to see Wane in a non Wigan environment. Could he replicate the same success?
Smith has had success, at different levels, at every club he's been at.
Think it's a done deal with Smith anyway
