Too many cooks spoil the broth and in the end it was chef Robbie Farah who had to be kicked out of the kitchen.Thats how coach Jason Taylor explains his controversial decision to drop the club veteran and NSW hooker to reserve grade for this weekend.Taylor indicated he felt Farahs game was incompatible with playmaking young guns Luke Brooks, Mitchell Moses and fullback James Tedesco and that forced his hand.Weve got too many cooks spoiling the broth, Taylor said on Thursday.Its purely based on that. Robbie Farah is the NSW State of Origin hooker, hes a Wests Tigers great, hes a great player but its just not working for us at the moment in regards to the cohesion of our team.Im still not comfortable with where we are on the ladder (11th, 7-10).In my opinion we should be further up with the squad weve got and Ive been brought here to get this team going in the right direction and tough decisions need to be made.Instead of turning out the Tigers in the NRL clash with St George Illawarra at ANZ Stadium on Sunday, Farah will play for their reserve grade side against Newtown Jets at Leichhardt Oval on Saturday afternoon.Taylor said after analysing the teams performances over the last seven games - five of which Farah missed due to Origin duties - he came to the decision they were a better outfit with the 247-game veteran on the sidelines.We had a good discussion, we went through some games and some examples of what were talking about, Taylor said.Robbies very disappointed and Ive had a chat to him this morning and his attitude is hes going to get on with it and hes going to do it with a smile on his face.Taylor denied he was incapable of working with Farah, or that he was trying to force the Blues No.9 out of the club, despite Farah claiming after last season hed been told to find a new club or face being dropped to reserve grade.The former Tigers skipper has one more year left on his contract, said to be worth about $1 million.The club had planned celebrations for Farahs 250-game milestone against North Queensland in round 22 but those have been thrown into disarray.Taylor said it was important to take the emotion out of any selection decision, especially with a top eight spot on the line for the rest of the year.Robbies got a contract for next season so were expecting him to be here, Taylor said.Robbie will be considered for selection every week.
