we can boo if we want the majority of people there including myself are probably struggling with money yet they still pay alot of money to watch them play like that have we won a game since lowes was given an extra year contract?

I just left at 28 - 20 because I could see that more misery was coming.

I usually stay right to the end whatever the score, but this time I couldn't take anymore.

Too busy contemplating the depths of deja vu to boo.

I didn't and don't boo but that's my choice.

Keep the faith Wire.....

I don't boo either, TBH towards the end of tonight's game like a few last year I was almost apathetic about the whole thing, we've seen it too many times.

Most people booing are just frustrated. It's some of the player's currently representing the club and their percieved lack of effort that people are fed up with.

People can generally accept losing to a team that outclasses you desite your best efforts - that's not what happened tonight. Catalan barely had to work for most of their tries. The result tonight was far worse than the playoff defeat.

Apart from 1 set in the first 5 minutes, I cannot remember Catalans getting into our 20 and not coming away with a try.

WHere the hell is the goalline defence? That was wprse than last year! Paul Wood is incapable near the line, and was quite rightly dragged off, but there are plenty who are as bad.

Yes. If I were Lowes and had seen him laughing it up I would put my boot through his ar$e.

Clearly doesn't give a monkeys about the club or the fans and he isn't the only one.

Sorry but simply can't agree.
I've not played at professional level, but have played to a pretty decent standard (football), but even when I've played against drinking mates and lost, never could I, after the whistle has gone, break into a smile, and start jollying with the opposition. I would have got lashed in the changing rooms by my team mates, as it would have said ' I don't give a ... lads, just here for the laugh'
Showed him for what he is, a thieving Aussie who couldn't give two.....

I've played and still play at a decent level in RU and played for some pretty decent RL clubs, but applauding your mate for doing well and showing some sportsmanship, which we all pride ourselves on, is not disrespectful in my eyes. My teammates, the ones who I actually wanna play my heart out for, know that I always give 110% even if the stuff I do doesn't always come off on the day, and they see that when I'm in the gym 2 hours before training. It's my way of coping with a loss, there's no point in taking it out on your mates, your opposite number, on the opposite side; if they've done a damn good job, I'm gonna let them know it. And I'll also let 'em know that they're not in for such an easy ride next time. King can't do anything right in this team. Even if he doesn't have a bad game, which, tbf, he didn't because he was starved of the ball for the majority, he gets ripped from all sides. You're right, burn the bloke for sportsmanship. How dare he show it. That's not what our team is about...

Wigan have made a pretty crap start but the only saving grace is that Warrington are below them in the league!

Seriously though how is it that teams like Wigan and Warrington can play so bad after all the pre season training and hype about improved squads etc? Are they over trained? I dunno but it beats me.
