Quote: John Gilbert Reds "If Harris is playing Fages under the instruction from Koukash, then he should walk now. No coach should listen to the opinion of an owner regardless of their experience or knowledge within RL.
Also, why are persisting to play someone who doesn't want to be at the club anymore particularly when it is at the detriment to the balance of the team. It is an absolute travesty that Niall Evalds wasn't playing last night and even worse not having Rangi in the halves. I thought Fages was brilliant last night though, but when all 3 half backs are fit a difficult choice has to be made. Dobson or Theo - simple as that. As a coach you're paid to make difficult choices, Harris appeared to yesterday sh*t out of making such difficult choice and opted to drop the quiet kid who earns next to nothing.
Pathetic decision.
With regards to Harris, get rid now. If you're thinking he can do any better than he currently is you're deluding yourself. As has been said previously, the bloke has failed wherever he has gone. Wigan were more than happy to see him leave too, no surprises.'"
Definitely agree with this. And as a result of such nonsense we will probably end up ing Niall off and therefore could lose both him and Theo.
Full back should be Niall 100%, 6 should be Chase 100% as they are undoubtedly our best players in those positions. 7 should be left open for Theo and Dobson to contest over, if Theo wants automatic selection then so be it, he can find it somewhere else. I like Theo but we should not be pandering to players wishes when they put in a transfer request, it sends out a terrible message to anyone else who feels that they are indispensable to the club.
Whether or not it's Harris who had final say on the team last night, he is the manager and is paid to make tough selection decisions, he is paid to find a way to win games when we have a depleted squad and he is paid to stop players from consistently making individual errors which cost us games. The buck stops with him.
