Next Wigan coach?

[josie andrews]

A player i was glad to see leave, wouldn't want him as coach, It's to got be Edwards with Deacon/Faz/Harris/Another or An NRL Coach/Ast coach with Lockers/Lulu/Another

I just cant see why Edwards/Farrell would take a huge pay cut to come back to rugby league. Lets face it if they have kept up to speed with RL then they will know the league is actually dying and unless the Hearns or someone with real vision comes in that decline will continue IMO. RU on the other hand is getting stronger.

Again i cant see what we have to offer a top Aussie coach in a league in which is now effectively a feeder for the NRL to a large extent. An asst may be plausible and probably the "best" we can do

Realistically i can only believe that we will see a current superleague coach, winder or an aussie asst.

Not everything is about money though Josie, Coaching Wigan to a Challenge Cup win and other silverware is Edwards destiny, he's probably been dreaming about it since childhood, at some point it is an itch he will have to scratch, no is as good a time as any, surely one of the ways to get the game off it's arse is to bring back legends in one capacity or the other, If we are to carry on going for current run of the mill SL coaches then what is the point, big names put arses on seats whether it be players or coaches, simple as that

Sorry, but why have I been drawn into these posts?? ????????

Bennett has a year to go on his Brisbane deal.
However, the Broncos management have already interviewed Craig Bellamy about taking over from Bennett.
With knowing his contract won't be renewed Bennett might be tempted to leave the Broncos early.
He knows England pretty well I'd imagine having been a player at Huddersfield and now being the coach of our national team.
Wayne Bennett as Wigan head coach, who'd have thought it?
It might not happen but it shows the club's management's ambition.

I would love Bennett at Wigan,the England players love him and his experience would make us winners.Also his influence could persuade a couple of Broncos over here but i dont think it will happen sadly.

I thought a major consideration for Bennett was the care for one of his kids, who has medical issues, I think. It didn't stop him going to Sydney of course, but must be a factor. It would be vertainly be interesting to see what he could bring to the club, but judging by England's performances, I am guessing it'll be defend and no errors rugby.
Oh, and I read an article somewhere today that pointed out that the 3 coaching appointments IL has made have been McDermott (at London), Madge and Wane. Now, that is some track record.

Just seen this

Brisbane CEO Paul White said: "Wayne Bennett is our coach for 2019. I've been totally consistent with that and nothing has changed. I can state categorically Wayne will be our coach in 2019."
Looks like the Wigan link a non-starter.
