Does anyone? I would suggest anyone that rates Shaw at fullback is either blind or has the surname of "Shaw".
Seriously though, the difference in Mullaney and Shaw is massive. Shaw to me shows as a good squad player, can provide adequate backup in numerous positions. But he's never going to be in your first choice 17.
Having not seen Mendeika, I find it hard to judge. But I would expect he's a similar kind of squad player, providing backup all over, but not playing when everyone is fit.
As far as Adam Henry goes, I'm in the camp that he's not good enough. He's had one good game (vs. Sheffield) and other than that, is full of errors and stupid decisions. Again, with a fully fit squad, he's not in the 17 for me. Waste of a quota spot and not one I'd want to keep if we got back into Super League.
