What we are so obviously lacking is a dictating scrum half.
We have been beaten 3 weeks on the trot by teams whose scrum halves have totally dominated all their plays.
Warrington - Lee Briers ran everything for them and won the game almost on his own.
Bradford - Matt Orford ran everything and all their plays came of him or Brett Kearney - who had been a spectator in their previous games.
Hull KR - Michael Dobson - totally played Sherwin off the park.
Whilst we persist with an unfit, uninterested injury prone player as our main playmaker we will struggle.

That's a good observation, however I'd argue that if this is the case, then we're lacking something in our defence which should be preventing such players from being able to dominate the game.
