| Good luck and well done, Jason. Think you'll need the luck given the exodus to France at the moment.

I would be more worried by the prospect of losing Thornely and Ainscough given the appraoches already made by Sale for these 2, i am sure having a Wigan legend on the coaching staff will not harm in there persuit of these 2 prospects.

| I wonder if that was why he spent two weeks at Orrell with the Wigan a few weeks back?

| I'm quite suprised really. I would have never have thought he had a tactical or coaching sense about him, especially in a game as complex as Rugby Union.
I could understand if he was working with outside backs, but to play a major coaching roll across the board has really taken me by suprise.
Well done to him!

He is a character that commands respect and with the help of more technical coaches that is half the job done.
I heard some shocking stories about how he used to rip into the lads when he was at Sale on the training ground or in social situations when he felt the team was behaiving in an unprofessional way, and i heard from some of the same people this did not often make him popullar in the dressing room but you knew who was boss.
I think his public personna and his professional rugby characters are 2 poles apart in truth.

| Tomkins, Thorley & Farrell are in the Accelerate Squad and on 3 year deals. One of the reasons for this, I suspect, is to ring fence them so Union clubs can't come and poach them.
Good Luck to Jason Robinson, he'll need it.
Lots of Union clubs are losing £ms hand over fist.
Wouldn't surprise me if Sale were one of them.

Hearing from a very reliable source, that the amount of money offered to Thornley is astranomical for an 18year old.

And that’s why he's been such a success. I keep going on about standards at Wigan but Robinson cut he's early rugby teeth in a Wigan side that expected and demanded the highest standards in regards to Rugby.
It's hardly any surprise that once you've played and achieved successes in that environment you won't settle for anything else! An interesting fact as well if you’ve ever read Martin Johnsons auto bio he mentions the first time he trained with Robinson for England apparently Robinson won the players respect that first training session due to just how committed, fit and how good his technical skills were compared to others. Apparently he was the first one at training and really put in a performance.
Shame the same standards aren't being set in the Cherry and White now.

Very true you have to give these guys a chance imo. Some of them may well fail but some will also succeed which is a far better situation that the one we are in where no one is even given the chance to have a go!
RU has plenty of ex British players as coaches as far i can see many of them are doing well.
