    A few things I see when looking at the log:

    1 - He only uses IB/FC 15 times over the course of the fight. This should be closer to the 20-25 range.
    2 - He only used Berserk 3 times, should be used almost right off CD so should have been up 5 times.
    3 - His casts per minute are low. He's doing fewer skills / minute than your casters, and if you take defensive cds out hes only doing about 19 gcds per minute. This last point is indicative of learning the job and the fight though, should go up with more experience.

    edit: Going to add my 2 cents to the fracture thing; If you look at the top 50 wars for any raid tier, you'll see that fracture use is all over the place. Some use it religiously, some might only cast it 3-4 times over an entire raid. For a new Warrior, basically ignoring it and focusing on getting the most out of his stacks and maximizing fell cleaves is probably the better bet, as any time you clip fracture, or cause your slashing debuff to drop because of applying it you've lost dps. At optimal usage Fracture is less than a 1% dps gain, most warriors have much bigger things to focus on that could improve their dps before they worry about that last .7%

    edit2: 1 more thing to add, he spent over a third of the fight in defiance, but his hp never dropped below 25%, he could probably easily get away with full time deliverance.
