Warrington named James Lowes as head coach

James had impressed in the role after taking the job until the end of the season.

James Lowes took the job following the sacking of Paul Cullen in May.

Wolves have recorded a run of six wins in seven games under Lowes' leadership and have seen their bid to make the Grand Final revived.

The former Bradford Bulls hooker left Salford City Reds in July 2007 to become assistant at Warrington.

He had an illustrious playing career and had spells with Hunslet Hawks and Leeds Rhinos.

But Lowes is best known for his time with the Bulls, where he starred between 1996 and 2003.

Warrington lie in fourth place in the Super League and face second-placed Leeds on Saturday.
