Unconfirmed but looking good to me. Really want to see Wane involved properly too though.

Fingers crossed for Wednesday!! :D

The trouble is that Feka is not in the same league as Moimoi!

Far too many positives on here!

Where are all the MickyKnockers?

They must be out there somewhere!! :lol:

Seriously, things would appear to be looking good at the moment. Lets us all just pray that the reality is as good as the anticipation!!

Hope so, whoever comes. Everybody's positive because there's no reason to be negative - just as we were positive when Millward & Noble came...positive/negative comments are based on performances and results, just as with players.

True, one plays in the NRL and the other plays in SL. :wink:

I know exactly what you mean though.

Just hope the Visa is no stumbling block.
MM has been my choice for some time now, and was pointed out by another member, Shaun Wane would be his ideal assistant.

Melbourne have made some supposedly ordinary players look great. Ryan Tandy being a classic example.
Storm are renowned for their fitness levels, so I think Feka and especially the pig, had better get themselves ready for some serious graft if MM is coming to Wigan. And not before time too.

I wouldn't be surprised if Piggy legs it before the start of next season. He isn't going to want to change his lifestyle at this stage in his career and so will go looking for an NRL side to take him back.
We should be careful what we wish for with Feca, as there will be an inevitible trade off between size and power. He'll never give us more than 40 effective minutes, but he can certainly give us that much.

It is just very exciting to think of Wigan getting the best NRL knowledge given how well Nathan Brown has done with IMO a poorer squad at Huddersfield.

As others have said a fitter squad along will get more wins and success.

Feka is in the same mould as Fui Fui Moi Moi.
Moi Moi was outstanding for the Eels in their grand final against the Storm, he scored a cracking try & stone walled three big units from Melbourne.
If our next coach can get Fek somewhere like that, it would be a good acheivement.
