Not really a surprise Wigan have confirmed Shane Wane as their new head coach on a 2 year deal , Wane is joined by new assistant coach Iestyn Harris and Paul Deacon has announced his playing retirement to also join the coaching staff .

Great to see Wigan giving a English coach a chance , also glad to see Harris staying in rugby and Deacon starting his coaching career.

Is just begs the question why did Wigan wait so long in confirming Shane's appointment?

He seemed to be the obvious choice from the beginning and the Wigan chairman said as much so yes i dont understand why they waited so long . They could of announced it after straight after their season ended .

Maybe they wanted to wait until Harris and Deacon had signed aswell to announce everything together?
