Looks like we're going done the path of two week loans again! 

I think the chopping and changing of our spine was evident. Granted injuries played a part in that. York seem to be able to name the same side every week, whereas we lose our Hooker early in the game. But York looked like every player knew their role. We looked muddled and the tries we scored weren't well created. Meadows is 6, then at FB today, then back at 6. Lilley starts season at Hooker, then moves to 7, then back at Hooker today. 


Even Goal-kicking. We seem to give someone else a go everytime our nominated kicker has a few missed attempts. 


I don't know what the answer is. Meadows doesn't have the right IQ to be a top end HB to unlock top teams. Lilleys erratic. Holmes is a FB. 

You're right about the halfbacks, they've all got some faults in their game, if they didn't they'd probably be at a SL club.  

I noticed Holmes went in at stand off to begin with when he came on but that didn't last long.  I prefer him at FB too where he can come into the line and use his pace.  As a halfback he's more difficult to run off as he often runs first and looks to pass later.    Keyes is our best IMO but he was pretty anonymous yesterday.  


With Holmes being back fit where does this leave Hooley?  He's better defensively and a better passer of the ball than Holmes but we need Holmes on the field for us as he has pace unlike the rest of the team (apart from Blake).

I'd go with Hooley at centre. I just don't get the Hurrell signing. OK he wasn't bad. But his defence made me nervous everytime York went that side. And that's on our small pitch! I just don't like these loan signings. The team looked like it needed freshening up a little, bring in an enthusiastic young player. Otherwise what's the point of the academy if we just loan players everytime we're short on numbers.  I'd definitely bring in Peposhi for Batley. We need that raw youthful energy at the moment. 

Definitely think we need a point of difference.  A lot of what we do is very predictable.
