The fact he’s has had so many partners is part of the problem.
To read sone of the comments on here you get the feeling Lino was solely responsible for all the defeats! Absolute rubbish!
Give him a proven stand off to work with and I think you’ll see a different Lino'"
Yet Gale who had a makeshift partner with Dagger pulled out some good attacking play and our attack was much improved. How do you explain that?
Also, Smith and Dagger pulled out an improved attacking display vs Leeds? How do you explain that?
Kay and Dagger pulled off a good attacking display vs Wigan… how do you explain that?
Yet Lino playing a number of times with Dagger, Smith couldn’t produce the same results. Your argument works against you.
On the above 3 wins we moved the ball considerably better across the line and created more opportunities with overlaps etc.
He’s not the sole cause of the string of losses but imo he’s a contributory factor in a combination of causes.
Miller always took the lead and he played off the back of that. Whoever he plays with he needs to let the other half lead or he’s going to continue to struggle. Hopefully Gale can offer that but it would be harsh on Dagger who’s played better. I’d go with Gale/Dagger on what I’ve seen.
