Peerless, of Wigan.

Some of the secret pie eaters in the Welsh squad will be disappointed, as well as any non tackling perma tanned types who had designs on a Welsh jersey. The boy from Wigan is now full time. No longer will our Shaun single handedly subsidise the Severn Bridge toll with all his M4 dashes, because now he's here to stay. Perhaps Cardiff gives him the environment he's happiest in, the closest experience to being in Wigan on match day, in a rugby town, warts and all.
 The clarity of the WRU move in the wake of the RWC is highlighting the ever deepening sense of confusion at Twickers. As Will Carling observed quite some time ago, it's fine to allow a bunch of gin soaked committee men to run the game as long as the national side is winning. Now, the competence of those committee men is coming under some scrutiny. The obvious question is now being asked - WHY give Johnson the job of running the national side, without ANY coaching and/or management experience?
