An Example of Lowes's Incompetence - Use of Substitutes : Sat Feb 28, 2009 6:14 am  

He waited 75 minutes to bring Mitchell on and that was only the sixth Warrington substitution of the night.
After spending so much time during the first half without the ball (I originally typed defending but like to keep things accurate) I found that absolutely baffling.


The speed of the line has often been mentioned on here. They'll be no finer example than Dale Ferguson's second try when a bad pass caused him to collect the ball standing still and yet he still managed to score.


Finally, and perhaps most controversially, allegedly* one of last week's 17 against Catalans didn't turn up for training last Sunday morning. He retained his place in last night's 17.

* I cannot 100% guarantee this to be true but the original source is about as reliable as you can get

Really?! thats shocking if so.
Then again, cant blame fitness, we were being embarassed from the off.

I'd like to close this post with a final comment,
Lowes out.

perhaps lowes was feeling sorry for us for having to play the majority of the match with just one sub, he may have been evening things up lol. Wouldn't surprise me after hearing his interview wit that fella off here and reading his post match comments last night. Apparently he was offering a couple of wakey fans a fight during the first half when they were taking the mickey out of him. I'm afraid to say the majority of your fans are right in saying the mans a bafoon and no way a super league coach. You need him out and you need him out fast. Just remember your season has only just begun, theres no need to panic re final placings in the league just yet.

Obviously one of the untouchables who shafted Cullen through unprofessionalism & is now doing the same for Lowes. Unfortunately no-one at the club has the balls to deal with these players (we know who they are) & until they do Wire will be in the sorry mess we see at the moment.

Our line speed is either slow due to poor fitness or a simple lack of enthusiasm or commitment.

Another good example was when Stosic pulled up and hopped into our line and yet again he came onto the defenders rather than vice versa even though he was on one leg. Laughable.

I don't like some of the stick certain players are getting.

It wasn't:
Briers
Gleeson
King
Monaghan

Or Clarke or Wainwright!
