Stan - has run his course. His body couldn't handle the wakefield game so to risk a squad place on him in the do or die game was too risky.

Fisher - hindsight is a wonderful thing, but going by morgan's word he said he aimed to have a utility player on the bench to be able to rest murrell and fitz, and chaz replaced jake in the centres at one point. So this was a good thing to have, but only the gods will know if having fish in the side would have made that difference

He gets paid to coach the team, I'm happy for him to do that, his track records not so bad up to now.

I could not beleive he went into the most important game of Rovers recent history without a specialist hooker. Utter madness imo.
