Wigan coach Stuart Raper has been linked with a job swap with Cronulla's beleaguered boss Chris Anderson.
Wigan coach Stuart Raper has strong links with Cronulla

But Raper insists: "I have not been offered a job with any Australian club.
"I've got another year of my contract remaining with Wigan.
"It's a kind of an optional thing, but at this stage I would like to stay. Things are going pretty good."
The rumour mill cranked into overdrive with news that Wigan chairman Maurice Lindsay had flown to Australia.
Anderson, who is also coach of the Kangaroos, is having a tough time at the Sharks, with poor results putting the club out of the play-off picture in the NRL.
And given that he is good friends with Lindsay while Raper has strong links with Cronulla, a job swap has been mooted.

All I'm doing is keeping my head down and preparing to win our next game

But Raper insists: "I don't want to make any more comment because people just blow it out of proportion.
"You say something and suddenly people make more of it than they should. Two plus two becomes five.
"I've never known a club (Wigan) like it.
"I suppose it comes with the territory, and it doesn't help with Cronulla going bad at the moment. All I'm doing is keeping my head down and preparing to win our next game."
