I’m hoping Goudemand is Donaldsons replacement (I think he’s off contract this year.



In terms of point of difference personally I have bigger issue with the back row. Traditionally that’s where it would come from. We’ve got lots of workmanlike players there without any real impact.



I’d maybe argue Cam Smith is our point of difference when he’s not having to be involved In absolutely everything trying to make up for the halves.

Yeah, we could do with a coach like that. But who? Oh, hang on. Isn't there a guy who inherited a cellar dwelling team last year and took an often depleted side on a long winning run (of effectively knock out games) all the way to the Grand Final. We should sack the current coach and get him in. Now, what was his name? Rohan something?

And has put them firmly back in the cellar this season....

While I take the point on coaching, it’s not that long ago Lam was practically chased out of Wigan. He’s had 2 years to build his squad and a he’ll of a lot of investment. The players he has this year could be deemed ‘cast offs’ but they’re all players he wanted, and a vast majority of them he had last year in the championship too.



I get it’s a what have you done lately thing is coaching, but I don’t think that’s a fair comparison.

So maybe time for some quality recruitment on the playing staff instead of this constant and counterproductive sacking of sacrificial lambs, sorry coaches.

I 100% agree.

GH needs to get the cheque book out and back Smith.

Then let's see what he's capable of with his own team.
