I was thinking that. The baiting was bad enough before all this ... I can only imagine it's going to be a lot worse now.

any abuse he gets will be fully deserved.

I see you are on his back before he has even pulled his shirt on.

I concur.
B*******s!!!

Mr Meli is a fantastic player and his presence in the side will lift our backline. Get him back in as soon as possible.

Don't get me wrong ... if he's at fault for this debacle then he needs his wrists slapping and deserves a bit of stick.

What I'm not looking forward to is a renewed spell of several people around me in the popular side blaming Meli for things that are happening on the other side of the pitch, and inventing something that he's done wrong every time he touches the ball. If nothing else, it's friking tedious.

Dux, the bloke was getting murdered by fans int he game against Warrington. What fricken hope does he have when he does return?

Zero.

You're being kind

Trot on junior - isn't it time you changed your signature??

As for Franny - if he is up to fitness then i'd consider him for a 60mins stint - he owes the club a lot so it will be interesting how the next 6-8 weeks go with him.

Cant say I actually wanted him back but if were paying for him and he counts on the cap then we might as well have him available, especially as we look paper thin on cover for the outside backs, we had a standoff on the wing in the last game and that isnt a good position to be in imo.

Just to put this half back on the wing debate into perspective; did we not play Jammer on the wing once?

lol during a game?

Admittedly, it was the Midlred years, but I distinctly remember it. And no, clever dicks, I'm not getting him confused with Ian Hardman
