Even though we struggled a little last season as a spectator I would much rather watch what Paul Cullen had them playing like than the 5 drives and a kick crap under lowes. Might aswell do without the half backs and just chuck 2 extra forwards on.
Ive just said exactly the same thing to my missus.

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

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.

NOTHING Mr Lowes has done, on the showing of tonight is showing ANY progress.
Clearly he can't cut it as has been demonstrated in the last two games/
Two second halves where we don't score - end of

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.
SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
