Quote ="ChrisA"Apologies for quoting myself. My thoughts are still the same and have been confirmed now, IL has shown faith in Edwards apparent commitment to coaching Wigan. I guess he thought that after all this time away, to make the decision to come back, he would have been 100% committed and felt comfortable with a handshake.
Clearly IL has been left to look like a prize clown. While it's easy to state the obvious about him not actually signing, it's Edwards that has created all this, because his stock has risen. Even had he signed, there would have been union people with money sniffing around.
I'm not going to spit my dummy and say I don't want him to come, I do. What I want more though is a quick resolution, so whoever the coach is can start to plan for next year.'"
I agree with everything up until the last paragraph. Edwards has made IL, KR and more importantly Wigan and RL look like a total amateur bunch of nobs, Rugby Union must be wetting themselves laughing at us.
For me he obviously doesn,t have coming home top of his list of priorities,so as such IL should stop being dictated to by the egotistical little sh**house, withdraw the offer and lets go our seperate ways. Who is to say that a few months into his first season somebody from Union might not knock on his door and waft a wad under his mercenary nose and off he goes leaving us in the cack again. I would no longer trust the guy as far as I could throw him.
