Mellor back next year.

[PHaTMaN]

Good news, where will he play? On the wing? Or maybe slot into the 2nd row off the bench?
Now lets sign Deano!

 

[tUp]

#####, deano ...then kent

 

[Sharkie73]

IMO its a good move, he brings a load of experiance to the backs, I like the idea of Mellor and Vagana in the centres.

 

[tUp]

i hope he's on the wing, or 2nd row - zeus has way to much potential to be left out. especially if its a short term contract, players like kent and zeus are the future.

 

[Nuffs]

great news!!!

one step closer to the "losing culture" ando once demolished into a "loser culture"

 

[Jimbo]

Excellent.

Rieck > Merritt though.

 

[Special K]

What a f**king joke. Why lose Kent and Rieck for Covell and Mellor? :twisted:

 

[Mr Angry]

Mellor is a right winger and I like him.

 

[Houdini]

Mellor was one of my favourite players before he left.
I'm excited that he's back!

Good stuff

 

[imasharkie]

Excellent.

Rieck > Merritt though.

Reick runs further backwards and further sideways than forward, you like that in a winger Jimbo.

 

[spirit of league]

cool. we need a few big strong backs. no problems with defence. obviously can play in the pack too so great versatility and may stay longer than just the original 1 year contract.

also another good sign of rebuilding the heart and soul of the team.

spells the end for stinky you'd think. pity. i'd really like to see kent retained

hey frenzy can i borrow your crystal ball before the next big $15mil powerball

 

[dolph_sharkphin]

Excellent news. I'm a big fan and still shaking my noggin as to why we ever let him go.

 

[chili pepper]

Great news. Will add some much needed depth to our three-quarters.

Could be a good bench player with the ability to cover many positions.

 

[Jimbo]

Excellent.

Rieck > Merritt though.

Reick runs further backwards and further sideways than forward, you like that in a winger Jimbo.

Well, yes. That's where the gaps are...

Forwards are there to run forward

 

[shadowboxer]

awesome stuff. The boys on the hill will be stoked. Where to play him??? I dunno but he has a number of uses. Welcome back mellor

 

[ali]

Good to see him back, although he's hardly been on fire in England, from what I've heard. I think he will end up in the forwards. I never thought much of him as a winger, always worried me with grubbers, though I missed most of 2002.

 

[Sheros los Deros]

This is terrific news, does everyone think he'll start on the wing? Or perhaps move into the centres?

Actually he could play second row if he's lost pace.

Welcome home Paul.

 

[fatshark]

gee Newtowns backline is looking pretty good.

 

[fatshark]

Yes, I am one of those who thinks he is slow and useless.

 

[Mr Castleford]

Well if you heard that this season you are very wrong. He was injured much of last year but he has been one of the very few outstanding players for us this year and has been awesome on the wing. He raced 70 metres to set up one try yesterday and flattens just about anyone who gets in his way when given a little space.
