Matt Peet believes Wigan Warriors are capable of being competitive in 2022
The new head coach says the club’s future success will be underpinned by a ‘Wigan feel’ – with the fans at the heart of the action.
He hopes his players can create a strong connection with the people in the stands.

“It has to be based on culture, it has to feel like Wigan. We have to give the town something to be proud of, and if we can do that, anything is possible.
“Part of our mission is to get the stadium rocking and get that connection between the team and the supporters.
“They can expect an honest, hardworking and committed style of rugby.
