Ive just said exactly the same thing to my missus.

Exactly what I keep saying, it is boring and not very effective!

| First half Monaghan in defense was awesome but both him and Briers were again non existent in attack.
Second half Monaghan and Briers defense was woeful and both were still non existent in attack.
I don't think they can play together and as Ive said in the past i would like to see Monaghan play along side Bridge.
I do however think Briers's kicking game improved on recent displays.

While Lowes was there by any chance???
I honestly think Lowes has got us playing that kind of RL. At least with Cullen we played some lovely attacking rugby. It may not always have come off and we may have dropped the ball a lot but we played with flair and emulated Saints. Now not only are we playing boring forward-heavy rugby, we're playing rubbish, boring, forward-heavy rugby.
I think Lowes is trying to move as far away as possible from what Cullen has us working towards and that is not doing us any good at all when we have some cracking talent in our backs.

Clearly he can't cut it as has been demonstrated in the last two games/

Actually I think you'll find we scored at the beginning of the second half at Saints...

I don't know, your pack is alright. Morley is not playing at the level his wages suggest he should now, but Carvell is playing well. Lowes is trying to turn you into Bradford, only you've got no outside backs where Bradford had Vainikolo, Hape.
Your halfbacks are easily the worst pairing in Super League.

Wire have a similar problem to what we have at Wigan (but at least our players are 10 years younger)
You have two 7's and no 6.
As I've said on another thread you wasted your money on one trick Mick. It would have been far better spent on a decent halfback and moved Monaghan to 9.

| There's a combination of can't run (Monaghan) and won't run (Briers)...and if your halves don't run at the defence all that the opposition have to do is pick up the support runners...

| I thought last week that maybe you were just bettered by a superb side. Tonight showed me that I was wrong.
You guys deserve better than that. There seems to be a common theme at recent under achievers: learnt all they know at the Dulls. Noble, McNamara and Lowes.
For me, the best business of the winter was Brown going to Hudds. I think maybe you would have been better hanging on to Cullen until you could find a coach, rather than just appointing the drive and drive of the Bulls.
Alright, I'm a Wakey fan, but like all of us, I am a fan of the greatest game, and I want some other team to break the top two monopoly, and for as long as you and Wigan put up with more Bulls rejects, it's not going to happen.
Good luck, but don't start the revival next week.

Couldnt understand that you had catalans rocking in the first half, yet decided to take the 2 points instead of pounding the ball in again and going for it like they did to you in the second half.

| I get the feeling that Lowes's system is making the halves look poorer than they are.

Sorry, but Higham is one of our better players. He looks absolute class, even in the poor team performances we have seen. Youir loss I'm afraid.

Bradford were not five drives and a kick under Noble. They were more like that under Elliott, Noble got them playing more rugby league.
The Bradford I remember which won SL titles used to have Henry and Robbie Paul tearing teams up the middle, offloading forwards like Forshaw and Gartner, or cutting teams up out wide with Hape and Vainikolo.
I would certainly accept that style of rugby league.

I believe we have a 6 in Chris Bridge. I'm just waiting for the day he gets a chance there although I don't think it'll come soon.

I think you have a very long wait ahead of you there, warrington will never win anything aslong as briers is on the pitch he never clicks with anyone we always seem to have two individual halfbacks on the pitch playing two completely different games and not together!
