It feels like Fages is holding the team to ransom at the moment. Either directly or indirectly. Maybe I'm wide of the mark and IH is just losing the plot with regards to team selection.
Having the talent of Chase playing at FB is criminal, and if Dobson isn't fit he simply shouldn't be selected. If Evalds is carrying a knock or unfit then surely BJB could have moved there (Where his talents can be utilised) Fages as interchange at hooker with Hood, and Chase and Dobson in the halves.
I posted on another thread during the week some stats on assists.
Our team relies heavily on Chase to provide them. So much so, that if you decide to play him in an unfamiliar position, statistically, we'll probably lose. It highlights, to me, some baffling choices for the line-up from IH, as I'm sure he must be aware that we are a team that puts its eggs in one basket?
The style this team are playing, if indeed it's deliberate from IH, is not one I'm particularly interested in watching at the moment. Reliance on a single talent, players played out of position, wingers redundant, with centres and hookers used as extra forwards.
I'm increasingly falling out of love with my Club at the moment...
