Quote: Geordie "Many of us said at the time that Cullen going was a bad thing though he wasn't sacked (or if he was that makes the situation worse)

Paul Cullen lost the dressing room due to decision(s) made by our board and the team stopped playing for him.

Warrington went to get Tony Smith but the RFL wouldnt release him at the time and so the board panicked and gave Lowes the job.

I said at the time that the board had (Effecitvely) written this season off and where willing to wait until Smith came in next year.

We would have been better sticking with Cullen, one move allowed by the board would have re-gained the dressing room and we would have been watching a team that was challenging and playing some attractive rugby which we certainly aren't at the moment.'"


hmnn i seem to remember you banging your drum after that cas game, chanting "we want cullen out"

Quote: Wire On The Telly "Bridge isn't a Stand off, needs to stay in the centres. Tried a kick for penny, however penny was halfway across the pitch and the ball was towards the middle of the posts, where there were plenty of defenders.

Should have been done 5-10 minutes before when evans was limping on the wings and all 13 were in the line.'"


He was a billion times better than Monaghan, so he's more of a halfback than he. I'm not quite sure what your problem with Bridge would be today ? I thought his place kicking, especially early in the second half was a s good as anything we've had for 18 months, he turned Owen around, and we had them bringing the ball out from deep.

I thought he should have got the ball more on our attacking plays. When it went to Monas, the move ended badly, Bridge got his hand on the ball in a good area once in the second half and got over the line. I didn't think in the scheme of todays performance that he showed up too badly.

Good kicking, but would have liked to see him take on the line more than he did.

I just think he would make a more complete centre.

On that, when we were attacking, ie, 20m out or less, the ball districution largely went to Monas. I'm not sure how vocal Bridge is, but he should have been demanding that ball, he looked far more likely to create something.

Trolling is funny sometimes. I've even seen trolls on the Salford board who crack me up.... I don't preach anything about trolling.... it's good to have a wind up with opposition fans... next you'll be telling fans not to sing songs 'AT' the opposition at matches. I'm here to stop slanderous comments... not trolling.

Brilliant analysis. What exactly is it about Warrington that is 'crap'? The playing staff, I suppose you must mean. And who signed most of them? The only coach to have been in charge here for more than five minutes, Paul Cullen.

But I forgot: perhaps you're one of the Salford fans who was calling for McRae's head for most of this season. Bet you think he's brilliant now after he beat 'crap' Warrington.

Quote: The Angry Pirate "I know I sound like a smart ass, but who seriously, after the end to last season, would be stupid enough to commit to a full season of Wire....At least those of us uncommitted types can now sit at home and count the cash we are saving...
I must admit I'm saving a fortune on changing my mind about going to the matches at the last minute. Struggling to think of a good reason why I will blow +£60 on watching a dull, uninterested bunch of mercernaries who all seem to looking at their next pay cheque. icon_eek.gif

Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union. www.squadbuilder.co.uk:1883.jpg

What a nipple. How old are you? Go back to your toys and stop trying to put the square through the circular hole.

Here's my take.

Yesterday has to be the most uncreative Wires side i have seen for many many years. In the past, for all our faults we could always be sure of a certain dynamism in attack. We were totally bereft of that against Cas, (who lets face it were equally poor yesterday, they just did the basics better than we did).

It seems like so much work has been put into us not conceding points, that we have forgotten the art of scoring when 10-20 yards out from their line.

At the end of the day though, and without appearing to over simplify things there is one major factor that is costing Wires dearly EVERY game - WE DROP TOO MUCH BALL!!!

[quote="Bob Paisley":y3z7f3as]A lot of teams beat us, do a lap of honour and don't stop running. They live too long on one good result.

How much would it cost do you reckon? I'd go halvers if it was viable. icon_biggrin.gif

Saying that, does anyone use Cullens crow's nest these days, that would be ideal stood above the old fogeys. icon_wink.gif
