No idea if he would have an interest in this career path but I get the sense that Isa would be a brilliant strength and conditioning coach.

What credentials and qualifications does he have?

You obviously have a point behind your question, so why not just ask it? Or, be a big boy and have an opinion of your own.

Not an s&c, but I'd be happy to see Isa as an academy coach at Wigan. He's obviously got all the characteristics & work ethic that Wigan look for and value. He's played under Bellamy & Wane, he's been a back and a forward. He's had to overcome the adversity of not making it in the NRL and moving across the world to re-establish himself.

Is there a better role model for, or person to give advice to future generations of Wigan and SL players?

The Roosters have started negotiations with JWH on a new deal.

How do you know he isn't a qualified s&c coach?

He didn't say he wasn't just asked if he was qualified to do it

The risk is obvious with his recent injury record but all signings are risky. We could probably lose 2 props and only recruit 1 who is capable of doing big minutes and promote Hill from within to replace them.

Sounds an absolutely enormous risk for someone with a bad recent injury record as well as concussion issues.
