I'd be quite happy with him playing rather than a "can't be arsed" half fit Chisholm who has zero commitment to the club or being a professional for that matter (last seasons jaunt down to London to watch the AJ fight the night before a match, or asking for time off to attend a wedding says everything!!!).

I agree.

Like I said he and Milnes especially are quite inexperienced but have a lot of improvement in them.

Like you I would like to see us be a bit more expansive. It was typical that the one time we strung some offloads together yesterday we scored (Grant’s 2nd try). We could be doing that a bit more.

Only 3 sides have scored less points than us : Batley, Barrow and Rochdale. On the flip side, only 5 sides have conceded less: Toronto, Toulouse, York and Widnes.
We need to find a way of upping the intensity in attack. Too many players taking a pass whilst standing still and having to catch a pass above their heads. We seem to flick a switch for the Minchella try and moved the ball quickly along the line to create the space to score.

Think if we offloaded a bit more we'd create more space. Usually you can count the offloads on the fingers on one hand. They even take the players by surprise when it happens.

I think we'll be higher in the "attack" league once we've played Barrow and Rochdale

Agree about offloads. Crossley in particular has a real good offload game. Need to see more of it.

Lilley is a good player. We've had plenty of disruption in the side. A settled pack and 3/4 line will bring the best out in Lilley and Milnes. We're getting there now I think. I reckon going forward they will be our best options of the four half backs we have. It's going to have left and right sided kick options as well.
