But the reason for that is Noble has proved he is unable to adapt his tactics part way through a match, and despite having numerous opportunities, it has only become apparent he can take us no further.
Whether or not you could see it, the timing of the substitution today cost us the match, and Noble should have realised his timing was out.

I feel you're missing it tbh, it's not so much the timing as the actual performance put in by the two substitutes. If they'd played a blinder we would have kicked on regardless of the timing.

No it's definately you who's missing the point here.
The timing of the substitution gave Feka sod all chance of 'playing a blinder'.
He was f*cked before he'd even had a touch of the ball.
At the moment of the substitution were we struggling? No.
Did either Coley or Prescott look like they needed a break? No.
Did we lose the match in the 20 minutes following the substitution? Yes.

Nail on the head which i have been trying to get across all along.
The individual performances from Fielden and Feka were what cost us and add to that Roberts inability to defend the high ball against Matt King.

He would have to defend at some point in the game. Are you trying to say if he had come on whilst we had the ball he would not have to do any defensive work? Maybe not for a few sets but eventually Wire would of got the ball and done the exact same thing to him.

Seriously i've heard it all now.
If only they'd been subbed a few minutes later, and still played like utter crap we'd have won the game. They had to come on at some point, and as long as they were going to play crap it was going to be hard.
Warrington were [ialways[/i going to try and tire out feka no matter which minute he entered the game.
What else happened in the following 20 minutes? oh that's right bailey went off injured as well.
Warrington were already getting back into the game in the few minutes before feka+stuart came on the field, which is probably why it was felt a good time to bring them on and add something different.
It turned out to be wrong because of the performances put in, can you seriously believe they would have played better if brought on later, and if so how later, 2 minutes, 5, 7, 9.3? what was the magic criteria?
Jesus i'm not even a big fan of BN and feel we may need a change, but I can at least try and be objective

Its only nail on head because you agree with it.
The fact is i and it appears lots of others thought it was a bad idea to make the subs, especially given the fact we were going well and showing no signs of fading.
BN has subbed by the clock throughout his time at Wigan and more often than not it has harmed us.
The point is ok maybe you agree with BN that it was the right time to bring on said subs, but you like BN were wrong.
Not only was it too early, but why bring them on when we are about to do a defensive set? It made no sense what so ever and again the fact is it cost us the game.
RHJ should i post all my opinionions of the game while it is being played?
Its not the first nor probably the last time it has cost us subbing by clock it is something that BN has always dome regardless of how the game is going and exposes another limitation of his coaching. Fact.

| jonh i didn't even think we were 'going well' in the run up to the subs, just goes to show everybody can interpret the same game in totally different ways.

| They weren't brought on at the best of times but there is no way you can blame Noble for how e Feka and Fielden were.

You dont have a fact in you!
The only fact in this thread is that it was always going to be Brian Nobles fault if we lost this game because of people like yourself who like to act the wise man after the event.
Basically your posts are nothing but hindsight and thus should be taken with a pinch of salt.

Not in my opinion, and others, i personally at the time had to question why we brought them on especially as we were going into a defensive set and Feka for all his good points is not a great defender.
Is it also not possible to look back on an event in hindsight and analyse it. Regardless of if we agreed with the sub or not at the time, do you not agree looking back it was an error to change Props at that time and it had a major effect on the result. Do you not also see thagt bringing Feka on when going into a defensive set was an odd choide to say the least?
The difference between me and you is RJH I am happy to praise BN when he gets it right as he undoubtedly did/has over the last few weeks, but you are totally unable to see his weaknesses or at least acknowledge them, which he clearly displayed today.
Justy had a pint with an ex and current GB prop who i was chatting to in my local through a mutual friend neither were complementary about our tactics today, especially the use of our Props.

| Quote: Red Hot Jalapeno "I can see what your trying to say but to me it seems like the same old Wigan fans. When we lose blame the coach.
The problem here is the moment Feka and Fielden came on i would place a bet that almost every Wigan fan expected them to take the game to Warrington and build on the foundations that Prescott and Coley had laid. I bet not many Wigan fans disagreed with Nobles substitutions at the time they happened. It was not Nobles fault that both F+F were both awful yet it is so easy to sit here now and say its all Nobles fault for making the wrong substitutions.'"
I certainly did not agree. Feka would not even be in my 17.

If the truth be know i bet most of these lot where rubbing their hands when Feka came on expecting him to make a big impact.'"
and sidestep his way through for a try. He has been poor for weeks.

| Briers won that game, it wasn't Nobles substitutions that lost it.
