I still see what Lineham did in the semi final vs Leeds.
I can't see Mamo or Charnley with the strength to break and run like that.

Although Mamo played well last night is a good addition to the squad IMO he looks quick and 'up for it' I'm quite happy with Lineham and wont be writing off his Wire career just yet.

It's up to him to get his shirt back

That's a yes from me.
Let's not forget, Lineham is a top notch winger. Quite a few v Cats, damaged their reputation. Price made an example of TL. Up to him to get his jersey back.
It was quite similar with Atkins, not so long ago, and he's still scoring tries

I believe Thursday is the last of Dec P trial period. If the club deem him a success...there will not be a dip into the market for another half.

Until that Cats game Lineham has been rock solid under Price. He rightly got dropped and Mamo looks like he wants the shirt so that’s great for the team.

Lineham hasn’t made any secret of the fact he plans to go ‘home’ and I’m reigned to losing him, so I’m glad that Mamo has fordced his way into the side and we can get used to his different style. He’s a strike player too for different reasons.

Really, I thought he had already passed the test of doing a job until Widdop appears?
Who could we bring in at this very late stage that would improve the squad for 2019?

Don't forget that Kev Brown will be available later on.

Kevin Brown may be available to play, later in the season.

That makes it even more odd that RD is suggesting that if Patton is not deemed a success, then we will dip into the market for another half?

I thought we had obtained a salary cap dispensation for Brown for this season ? And after that, we signed Burrell, presumably using up any spare monies ?
