Finishes at the end of the season.

Very surprised by this.

Wigan should defiantly speak to Shaun Edwards.

Catalan bound for 2019.

Best decision Catalan could ever make. He will sort them out

What’s the story here? He’s having a successful season at one of the competition’s biggest clubs. Why go anywhere else?

There are fewer pie shops in Wigan these days and I've thought about moving to the south of France myself as a consequence.

We've gotta stay up first.

There is nothing he hasn't won at Wigan and he has been there a hell of a long time, If Catalan come knocking at your door with a big 5 year deal I don`t think there would be many in his situation that would turn it down. Wigan are not stupid and will have known about this for a while, they will have a replacement lined up and with Edwards publicly stating he wants to come coach in League it could very well be him.

He will have just as much financial backing at Catalan (If not more) than he had at Wigan from IL, Catalan have majorly under performed with the star studded side they have, lets be honest he really cannot do any worse than McNamara has done with them.

Surprised at this as there will be some major language barriers for him to overcome. I believe pretty much all the French players are fluent English speakers so it may take Shaun Wane some time to get up to speed. By year 3 or 4 of his contract he may be in a position to have a go at learning French.

Might be easier and quicker to teach the French lads Wiganese.

Do they pay less tax in Catalans ?

Scottish RU defence coach?
