I understand the question but I can't see what else can be done.
I don't think he should be left alone to fix it, but I reckon he could be good if he can get past this issue.
If we don't give him help and cast him out, we end up back where we were.
I called for some stability with Agar as well which unfortunately he just ddn't use in the end but I don't like just getting rid at the first sign of trouble. We gave him the job because we thought he had something, he should be given every chance to make that happen, even if that means getting him some advice/mentoring.
My personal view is that Webster could be quite good but he is trying game plans with exciting expansive rugby that the players just are not good enough to complete. The low completion rates are then affecting fitness and confidence more every game.
If he doesn't get it under control then he'll unfortunately lose his job.
But we are in exactly the same issue as we were when we ket Agar go. We have limited options to progress.
My opinion at the beginning of the season was that we are going to be fighting in the middle 8.
That's exactly how it is turning out and with some holes in the team, we are heading for bottom of the league and a fight to stay up.
Webster hasn't created that and I'm not sure if even Mr Kear could have got us out of the Middle 8, though I'd feel more confident going in to that stage with him, so we could survive it.
