Wigan Warriors • Re: Rumours and signings v9

Eddie Jones has spoken several times about his desire to coach in the NRL, and it's been well reported. So, if he 'guested' at a SL club for a year, it would hardly be 'unbelievable' news that would 'delight the whole game'. On top of that, how would it really prep him for a job in the NRL?

He was an assistant coach for one season at Wigan! Wow, Para, Penrith and Brisbane would be falling over themselves to give him a job with that on his CV.

I've said a couple of times that this bar is simply too high to be believable. No one can think of anything that remotely ticks these boxes. Even if it was a signing of unimaginable scale, it would hardly excite the rest of the game. Most likely, they'd just be jealous and demand an enquiry into how we'd got it round the cap.
