Dont forget chaps, Betts coached at Wigan from 2003 to 2006, at u'18's level, u'21's level, and a year in SL, working almost as a no.1 for the majority because of Gregs illness, Wigan got to the Challenge cup final that year...a clash of personalities with Millward was the only reason he left.

I also have it on very good authority that he has been working with Michael Maguire in preparation fo rhis return to RL.

Age and a wealth of experience in the game, plus a big name both here and abroad due to his time with Auckland can only mean good things imo for Widnes.

A coup in my opinion as I did eexpect to see him get the Quins jobs.

Leigh are fortunate to even be in our division and have done nothing since.
