Quote stusavage="stusavage"Reading this thread, if the fitness of the players is a problem the book stops with Forshaw. Looking a some of the names being banded around:
Perilini-Remains unclear what his qualifications for the job where apart from having played for the club and in the bootroom culture. Where is Apollo now?
Jennings-Was at the Bulls then Canberra then Penrith he is a former shot putter and trains the players accordingly. He would suit BN biff n bash approach.
Wigan have let some good conditioners go in the past-Marty Hulme and Nigel Ashley Jones.
Watching Wigan warm up against Saints im not entirley sure MF knows what he is doing. The thing I've found within RL not just Wigan is its 'jobs for the boys' look at James Lowes worming his way in and he got found out. A club like Wigan needs a sports science pro or somebody with a proven track record. Mark Corvo would be my choice he was at Salford, Canberra and Melbourne and made Melbourne into a force over the last few years, he is a professional conditioner and is not playing at it like some in SL. It makes me wonder if MF is suitably qualified?'"
Perilini is earning a huge wage in Dubbai.
Jennings is indirectly coaching most teams in this country one way or another as he is either paid by them to produce routines in the lower divisions or is an open line of dialogue to many of the current SL conditioners.
