It may be that Jimmy feels Mullaney can do a better job than Danny Addy at half? If so it makes some sort of sense to bring in a more dependable defender to release Mullaney from FB. Of course, we don't really know how long Siejka is going to be out, and maybe it's a bit late now, but I agree about Shaw at fullback.

Ex-Fev Etu seems happy...!

Not sure why everyone thinks he's a fullback - he plays centre for Fev I think. Their squad details certainly list him as a centre.

Perhaps so yeah. It certainly showed for me that Jimmy didn't want Shaw at fullback unless it was his only choice, when Mullaney came back and he went to fullback, leaving Addy at 7, rather than moving Addy back into the pack. I thought at the time that it was less about Addy playing well at 7 than it was about getting a stronger fullback in place. With Mullaney injured again, Jimmy signing a fullback just reinforces that theory.

Shaw is a good squad player and an excellent goal kicker. But is he good enough to be in the 17 when everyone's fit? Nowhere near IMO.

Mendeika came through Warrington's academy unless I'm mistaken and was quite highly touted, before playing at Swinton and Fev. Not sure I've ever seen him play to make a call on whether I'd rate him or not though. I know he spent some time at centre though.

He has played more Centre than Fullback, but I believe he was at fullback for his 1 or 2 games he's played this year.

I still have a feeling someone may be on their way out to make way. I just hope it ain't super Jean!

Take Adam Henry!!

You can't seriously be impressed with anything Baile has done this season. He's been one of the most disappointing signings for me, a total letdown.

Ahh now I didn't say that, he's last years Dale Ferguson, but he's also underused and out of position as a stock second rower. Very much so far.

Are you serious ??

I for one think Henry has played very well this season since cementing his starting spot !!

Unluckily Baile did pick up an injury but wouldnt say he is bad enough to go,

Ulugia i feel sorry for as the lad has pace to burn and runs hard, just makes bad decisions and sometimes struggles to catch the ball,

As someone put Shaw is a great goal kicker and supports well but thats about it for me,

Walker should probably retire

Sjieka "no comment"

Luaki for me is not getting enough game time - maybe worth a stint at oxford and bring back Davies

Tahaouri was playing well i thought god knows why he isnt playing.

First up, not I wasn't being serious, despite still having elements of rocks and diamonds Adam Henry has improved, I'm just carrying on my joking from last year when Adam Henry's pants defensive did my head in!

I wouldn't write off Shaw just yet, he's still only young like some of the other backs, and we don't use the plays that link in the fullback so he's had limited chances on that front. Yes his dropped bombs are annoying, but all young kids do it, Hampshire and Escare for example.

As I've made known for a while I rate Baile in a much needed defensive centre role so I defo wouldn't get rid I just think someone probably will make way for Mendieka and JPB seems logical - Catalan down on backs and a homegrown player for them.

The outside back I feel sorry for is Danny Williams, he seems to be consistent but forever the in and out man.

While I'm musing and while you mentioned Chev Walker, one player I think would replace him and more would be Richard Whiting.

Just looked at the blurred picture, I think it's Phil Joseph

Could be right there - we could use a few more forwards

I'd take a hooker...who could do no. 7

Whoever it is surely somebody has got to be on the way out to keep under the cap
