Hah.

Quite.

I like Rogues & Grimmy; you seem unusally balanced. The rest make Wane look gifted.

I think "Wane accuses ref of corruption" is a bit over the top. He was ed that bentham didn't award the try straight away and was venting, that's all.

However, is this a single incident? I know a lot of Wigan fans bemoan some of his approach in public statements, there was the whole "Knock 'em out!" business, and now this.

It remind me a little bit of when Ian Millward left Saints. He was sacked following a press conference in which he verbally abuse a journalist, but that was just the straw that broke the camel's back. Rather than being "sacked for swearing" which some claimed when defending him, he was sacked following a series of incidents in which Millward acted in a manner which was unbecoming of his station in public.

If this had been anyone but the Wigan coach, it would hardly have been mentioned...

I agree. But is it a result of the way Shaun Wane has developed his public image, rather than an "everyone hates Wigan" issue?

I never look for what other coaches say or do, I'm just not remotely interested.. If i had seen another coach do this, i would have chuckled, thought him a bit of a fool, and forgotten about it... Some people need to find some things in their lives that are a little more important than the immediate reaction of a man who is as much a fan of his team, as he is it's coach.
