Quote ="Highlander"Who have Lilley’s halfback partners been? Patten, Brough, Keyes & who else? This season the pack has been shocking, at home anyway. Everyone now knows that just attack our middles, down the middle, will score tries.
But Lilley has been our main constant at halves. If we can find a complementary half, does he have what it takes to be a consistently good Championship half back?'"
Chisholm and Milnes?
I think you’re right though, it’s hard to judge the half backs behind the current pack. We’re on the back foot, we don’t offload the ball, never seem to get quick PTBs.
We need a fitter, more mobile pack. I think Lilley and Payton would both look better with more runners and options. I feel like you can see what is coming from the stands so I’m pretty sure the opposition can read where the ball is going.
