Shaun Edwards
Re: Shaun Edwards
I was watching that old cup game on Wigan TV the other night against Hull KR, 1990 or something? I thought then, a modern SL ref would have blown up for 40-50% of the tackles. It was a totally different game back then.

Re: Shaun Edwards
Much more likely, but a big injury risk I think.

Re: Shaun Edwards
Ford is being paid 1/2 a million a year from his contract with Leicester and on top of that, he's got his England contract plus lucrative sponsorship deals which when totalled together could mean he's on something approaching or exceeding, the million mark.medlocke wrote:Is he good enough for Wigan?DaveO wrote:Reading the comments a lot are saying George Ford.Big Steve wrote:The Guardian mentions the return of a halfback from union to RL that will make the back pages....

Not saying every SL side wouldn't be able to afford him but would they want to?
Personally, I think he's a very good player but not an absolute match winner in the way jiffy was.
Think if anything, Eastmond would be a more realistic choice for a switch.
Re: Shaun Edwards
No idea. Both Eastmond and Ford have been away from the game for so long (I don't think Ford ever played RL at senior level did he?) and I have not watched enough RU to form an opinion about either of them as to if they (still) have the skills to be RL half backs.medlocke wrote:Is he good enough for Wigan?DaveO wrote:Reading the comments a lot are saying George Ford.Big Steve wrote:The Guardian mentions the return of a halfback from union to RL that will make the back pages....

If there is a halfback from Union coming I think my preference is still for Edwards. Of course if he does come it might not be to Wigan but to Les Cats.
Re: Shaun Edwards
article in the paper stating Edwards is coming to Wigan. It states he applied for the Warrington job when Smith left.
