McRae Slams Comments, While Duo Return From Injury

Friday 24th July 09



Reds' stars Karl Fitzpatrick and Ian Sibbit return to Shaun McRae's 19-man squad as Salford City Reds face Warrington Wolves in Sunday's Derby clash at the Halliwell Jones (3pm).



Fitzpatrick has been out for several months and his return to first team action will bolster his Head Coach's back-line options, while Sibbit's return will be a welcome return to the pack after a few weeks out with a thigh injury.



The duo replace Steve Nash and Jason Walton who drop down to the reserves.



The Reds are looking to complete their first Super League double of the season after their thrilling 18-16 Good Friday victory at The Willows and know Warrington will be looking to pick up their own form, after being hammered last weekend by third-placed Huddersfield Giants.



Head coach Shaun McRae said: "Our problem in the last couple of weeks has been poor ball control which has put us into a poor position but we are not doing that badly overall. We are competing and contesting everything and defending well, but we need to build pressure better. Warrington will be highly motivated with a Cup semi-final on the horizon and a good chance of reaching the Play-Offs."

Luke Adamson meanwhile has been cleared of any serious injury after receiving 24 stitches in a cut over his eye and will start in the back row.



McRae meanwhile has responded angrily to the questions raised over whether young star Richie Myler should play against Warrington, a team he has been linked with in the press over the last month:



"I think it is ridiculous that there seems to be a debate raging over whether I should pick Richard Myler or not. I treat every one of our contracted players the same and Richard is a contracted player. I have to consider the 17 men I put out there and I field a team that I strongly believe is our best to win the game," he said.



Referring to comments made by former RL legend Alex Murphy in the press this week McRae said: "I certainly don't listen to the views of somebody who has not played or coached the game for years and who doesn't even watch us play. The problem is, people start to believe what they read. Should I not play any of our other players who are linked with other clubs? What next, should I not play players against their former teams?"



He added: "The reality is as I have said, Myler is a contracted player to our club and he has never indicated to me or the Club that he does not want to be considered for selection."
