Wasn't there open and public flirting with Sean Edwards?



That cant have going down well with him, after everything he had won... Must have felt like his position was being undermined... Also i remember the Wigan forum being anti-wane for quite a while... I think you went on to win the Grand final that year as well.



Fans not happy with your brand of rugby, senior members of the club openly courting Edwards... I think the decision was more forced than anything.... he didn't really have any other option than holding his hands up and walking away.

I don’t recall any talk of us approaching anyone prior to Wane calling it quits. He announced he was leaving in the May and it was August before Edwards was announced. I wouldn’t be surprised if there had been any talks with Edwards but I certainly don’t remember it being a rumour. The Wane exit took everyone by surprise (including the players by all accounts).



As for the fans, Wanes style of play won’t get you salivating at the prospect of watching it every week but when you’re sat at Old Trafford watching your team win another trophy, you soon forgot how you got there. A lot of the people that bagged Wane said that our style of play would automatically improve with him gone, yet if anything it was worse last season. It looks miles better this year but then Lam has been given Bevan French, Jackson Hastings and a much bigger pack to work with. I always felt Wane played the hand he was dealt somewhat. In 2012 when he had an unstoppable Sam Tomkins and Gareth Hock, the rugby was a joy to watch (although funnily enough we didn’t win anything) but he never had a squad as talented as that again, so he won things with a side that would fight and scrap for every inch and grind out results.

I always thought it was the other way around, with the Edwards thing coming before the Wane announcement... im sure i remember there being strong rumours well before... it's probably my memory though.. i cant remember what i had to tea 2 days ago.

Oh well as long as you’ve got more money that’s fine then, we all know how much money Moran and Co pumps in, what has it achieved you exactly though? Any grand finals?

I've never had to tea anything before. What's it like?

Still not good enough for me defense better but woeful with ball in hand

That result gives me belief in the players again but not in price. I can't help but wonder what a different coach would get from this squad. Its nothing personal, it just isn't working.

Price can’t be made responsible for a players double movement, missed goal kick and drop goals.

Those aren't the problems and you know it. Is he responsible for zero away wins since July? Atrocious playing style for 20 odd matches except a handful of games? Picking Luther Burrell when he isn't ready? I'm glad we won truly and against a good cas side but questions must surely remain.

Of course they remain. 9 points scored in 2 games. 41 in 3 and thats playing the team Leeds put 60 on.



We narrowly beat Castleford at home.



Hull away will be a good test and an opportunity to achieve a rare Warrington double - away win and 2 consecutive wins.

Did anyone get any pearls of wisdom/assurances/platitudes from our CEOs breaking bread excercise?

Spoke to Karl before the game. He said last week was just not good enough. Totally agreed with the fans views about no passion from the team. He did say he expected a win this week. His prediction that we would score 6 tries was a bit naive though
