My opinion for what it's worth.
Stand Off should have been our major signing in the close season after Miller jumped ship. It seems he was the glue that held it all together Fifita and other players spoke very highly of him as a leader.

As said above we are totally unbalanced at half back with Lino having to take all responsibility. In fact if you look at most of the tries on Sunday they ran directly at Smith who couldn't make the tackles.
Why on earth didn't the coach do something about it I do not know.

So yes right to look at SOs but is Milnes the answer I don't know.

If you click on the link it brings up a picture of Mikey Lewis https://wakefieldtrinity.com/milnes-joi ... loan-deal/ Wish he was coming instead !!

I think he’ll compliment your maverick half quite well and allow him to focus on his own game more. Rowan has the ability to lead a team around at the very least.

Something we have strived for but failed to recruit since the days of Liam Finn.

Rovers have 2 England half backs in Jordan Abdull and Mikey Lewis which has seen Rowan Milnes have a lack of game time.

For literally months at the end of 2022 neither were available and Milnes stepped in admirably. In particular the last game of the season he was instrumental in the 4-36 hammering of Hull.

He actually played against you lot a week or two back in the absence of Abdull and had a decent game.

We've taken 3 brilliant players from you in George King, James Batchelor and Corey Hall. There's also Yusuf Aydin although we haven't seen enough of him to know yet.

I hope you'll get value out of Dagger and Milnes although I don't see Rovers allowing the latter to leave on a permanent basis.

Don't think Miller jumped ship not appreciated by fans I think couple of half back as good as any in league fans here get what they deserve in luv with second raters like fajita got what you deserve in my eyes and I've watched since 50s no troll

I really don’t know whether I would put Milner straight in for Lino.

If Milnes is an organising half then he needs the ball the most out of both halves. Lino if he plays will have to play secondary to that. Plus with the amount of ball Lino has had we need a different direction.

Let’s hope Milnes will provide that.

He's there to partner Lino not replace him.

From what I've seen of Lino he has the ability to confuse the opposition but equally confuse his own team mates as they don't seem to be able to predict his next move. Similar to Rangi Chase but without the magic.

Jeez Trojan...you got me seriously worried there for a minute

Could swap him for Gaskill, what the hell we’ll chuck Lineham in for free

Good job the mercurial Harold Poynton isn't playing today with his chip overs, back passes, switches in direction et al.

Yes that's poor Trojan, posts like that are extremely dangerous. Our nutjob CEO may get another one of his bright ideas

It would appear we have tried and how we had tried fortunately and I don’t know why he doesn’t see his future with us.
