Defense, OK but I am not convinced on the other bits either as he doesn't strike me as a great motivator once the shouting has stopped.

You seem to know a lot about union and league, why don;t you apply for the Wigan job ,it would keep you off here !!!!

I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Wane back in RL as England coach when Bennett leaves the job.

One of the biggest myths about Wane. If you ever speak to any of the players or staff associated with the club they will tell you that he isn't a big shouter at all, very rarely do they get the hairdryer treatment.

100% Correct and what I would have replied if I could have been bothered
For example, Maguire was a far more "Vocal" coach pre & Mid game

Cue the "Well he should be more vociferous & Shout more" comments from the he can do no right brigade!

Maguire is infinitely better and more accomplished coach than Wane could ever be, different league, Wane owes the majority of his limited success to the way Maguire turned the failing club around.

Did I say something different?
Why are you giving an answer to something I didn't say???

Absolutely spot on. When SW coached Wigan U18’s and I was at Salford U18’s we beat them at The Willows, quite handsomely in fact and their changing room was right next door to ours. Our coach at the time Alan Hunte said “Listen to the bollocking these will get now” and we listened and it wasn’t a rollicking, it was an honest chat and reflection.

He has his flaws but tearing his team a new rectum was never his style.
