Just looked at the last few years results, and the biggest losing streak I saw with Cullen in charge (excluding Challenge Cup as the stats are not included) is 4 games.

There were some embarassing defeats under him, but the last 7 games or so have been as bad as anything I have seen for years and years, with no glimmer of hope.

Just think some of the Lowes bashing is a little harsh.

But there was plenty of bashing for a coach who never saw us lose more than 4 on the bounce.

The way we are playing now is truly dire, and that is why he is getting stick. I don't buy the fact that players dont always try, and it's as simple as that. The team look very poorly managed.

He was said to have experience and according to experts, commentators and pundits was the next best thing.

Lowes has no experience and isn't even being give a chance, the last few games of last season we were decimated by injuries for god sake, was that the fault of Lowes.

Have you seen anything from this team that gives you confidence it will come good? I haven't, that is why people are angry.

We haven't lost 7 games on the bounce for years. That is form worthy of a coach being sacked whichever club you are,and whichever coach you are.

Lowes might not have been the most experienced, gifted, eloquent, intelligent, diplomatic, tallest of some of the names on the shortlist doug did on his lunch break, but the important thing is he knew the players already from when he used to speak to them while they gave him lifts, and that's whats important.

To bring a NRL/SL winning coach in during the season is not guaranteed to happen. It will take the season to settle in.

I say stick with lowes, his interviews are intersting.

However until i get photoshop back on, the picture changes to Bad lowes on the rate your lowes-meter.

I think the fact that non knee-jerkers such as you, me, JWP, Ian*77 are so fed up says it all.

You can add me to that list.

No direction
No enthusiasm
No belief
No team spirit
No flare

I'm not even going to mention using Penny as a scapegoat.

I didn't want him when he was given the job, nothing has happened since to change my mind.
