| [url=http://www.wiganwarriors.com/news_full.asp?newsid=5272Looks an impressive CV - Wiganer to boot[/url
Looks like Forshaw is staying on (for the moment)
Looks like some players are in for a huge culture shock with the new regime.  |

| Beat me to it you little sod 
Good news, he appears to have lots of experience. I wouldn't be happy if it was just Mike Forshaw. |

Excellent news, sound like a very good appointment and by keeping Forshaw it'll mean we have more resources and man power in which to share amongst the players, and he's a local lad as well.

Seems an outstanding candidate, MM has picked him, so clearly he liked something he had to say.
Impressive that he is a Wiganer as well.
I wonder how long Forshaw will stick it?

Well if he has been taking shortcuts and cutting corners, doing things wrong, he certainly won't be getting off lightly much longer. |

It does seem unlikely that he would stick around after such a demotion.
Unless he acknowledges himself that he needs time to obtain more experience and qualifications.
It makes the decision to bring him in as head SaC coach in the first place all the more mystifying.
Anyway glad we've got someone who actually has evidence of the necessary experience and qualifications to get our side into shape. |

Where's Jonh when we need his "experienced views"?
I'm sure Jonh will know about him through his contacts.

All looks good from that article. He is obviously very experienced, a BSc in Sports Science and a Masters Degree in Sports Physiology along with nine years experience in that position at the highest level of Rugby Union and Football - certainly must know his stuff!
Born in Wigan and a Warriors fan. Always a winner
I also like the fact that Mike Forshaw (although I don't think he has been good enough) & Mick Turner will provide assistance in this department and have the chance to learn from someone who is very experienced in this department and take some of the work load away from the other coaches while having to do a reputable job as they must report to Mark.
All seems very positive and a step in the right direction.
Now just the Reserves and Academy coaches next please Mr Chairman!

He's probably chucked the toys - IIRC he had an interview at Gloucester around the time this fella was appointed |

He certainly seems an obvious appointment.
Having people like Shaun Wane, Kris Radlinski and Michael MaGuire with tough attitudes and strong opinions about how the game should be played can only be a good thing for the club. It creates that special aura around the place that we so obviously lack or have been lacking & this must be maintained right throughout the levels from the First team to Academy team for it to work. So these two appointments are crucial to maintain that standard. |

Spot on. Radderz speaks about it in his book. Players must be taught more than just to turn up at training and go home again. There is going to be massive changes in this club this year and it may not be effective straight away but it will in the long run!
I am chuffed that Radlinski is going to be involved at our club. I think we need as many past players as possible involved. As long as its not Moran.. and players like that
Radlinski
Lam
Farrell
Wane
That'll do me  |

Like you I like having past players involved with our club. I think it's because you feel that they understand what it is like to play for Wigan and they have a connection with the fans from their playing days.
But we must rule with our head rather than our hearts and appoint the best people for the job. Regardless of whether they played for Wigan or not. |

Thats why I said I wouldn't pick Moran (although is a bad example) I am making the point that some people will cut it and some won't. I am sure there are very very good players even legends who just wouldn't be good coaches.
The past players named IMO will do a good job. |

I agree, and this appointment looks to be an excellent application of that logic. Preparing teams for the rigours of SL is a clearly a science. While having old soldiers around to offer encouragement and inspiration is a great thing, bringing advanced knowledge into the scheme is also to be welcomed. |

Totally agree, the days are gone where a player is flogged in pre season doing monotonous exercises and then is thought to be off the required standard.
The birth of sports science has put a stop to that in favor of a more professional and scientific orientated outlook on conditioning and health.
I believe that Huddersfield under Nathan Brown have taken a big step forward in the area of applying sports science to there training methods and rightly so, it's certainly benefited them.
I'm interested to hear like others if jonh has any knowledge of the guy. |
