Your support makes all the difference.Frank Endacott, sacked by Wigan last month, says he would be keenly interested in landing the coaching vacancy at Warrington next season. Endacott has returned from holiday in Europe to find himself strongly linked with the post, which will be vacated by Darryl Van de Velde when the current campaign is over.
"My door is open to anyone and, if anyone approaches me with a proposition, I'll look at it," said the former New Zealand Test coach, who has made it clear that he would like to stay in this country, if the right job was available. "I would certainly be interested in talking to Warrington, but I have made no advances to them and have had no direct approach from them."
The factor that could count against Endacott is his age he celebrated his 53rd birthday in Rome although he is younger than another Kiwi whose hat is in the ring, Graham Lowe, also a former Wigan and New Zealand coach.
Another candidate is Shaun Edwards, who has been furthering his coaching education at home and abroad and will eventually want a club job. However, there is strong backing within the club for Paul Cullen, Van de Velde's former assistant, who has done a good job under difficult circumstances at Whitehaven this season.
