First, here's the 'glass half empty' fan's response (just thought I'd get this in before one of them actually does).
Edwards - Too long out of the game.
Farrell - Messed up his big coaching chance with England RU.
Ford - Mismanaged Sam Burgess.
Deacon - Betrayed us.
Lam - There are rumours about mysterious off-field behaviour that make him totally the wrong choice.
Furner - Would rather be at Leeds.
Madge - Left last time at the first opportunity.
Bennett - Has already said no.
Now, here are my thoughts.
Edwards - Yes, any time. He still lives and breathes Wigan RL, and is a scholar of the game.
Farrell - Unsure. Suspect he would want equally big money to Edwards, but has a less impressive coaching record in RU.
Ford - Unsure. Don't follow RU sifficiently to know how successful he's been, and it's true - he didn't come over well during the Sam Burgess debacle (would also probably mean that we could never sign Sam).
Deacon - Don't know. Has he got what it takes?
Lam - Yes, any time. Another big Wigan guy, who has earned big notices down in Aus.
Furner - Don't know.
Madge - Yes, any time.Though I doubt it will happen.
Bennett - Ditto.
