| Quote: easyWire "THIS.
Why gamble when there is cheaper and better talent that’s playing halfback RL, rather than an out-of
-favour union centre?
There’s not many half backs available but Drinkwater, Hastings and even Mellor are more than capable of starting in the Warrignton line-up. What do we do if the Eastmond gamble doesn’t pay off? Wait two years til we can use he marquee spot again?'"
Honest question - do you think Mellor would be part of a championship winning Warrington side in 2019?

| Possibly, but more likely a NRL signing.
But such is the current lack of star quality British halves Mellor could quite easily be part of a grand-final winning team... think about Gale five years ago - who would have guessed he’d be a MOS winner? Also let’s remember Matty Smith won the GF (a couple of times?)...
Not saying Mellor is the answer but he’s way further up the list than a union centre that can’t get a game in his own sport and is holding out for a massive wage.

| 4 NRL Halfbacks off contract for 2019. Offer them double the money they would get in the NRL and a house in Appleton.
Nathan Cleary - Penrith Panthers
Shaun Johnson - NZ Warriors
Mitchell Moses - Paramatta
Luke Brooks - Wests Tigers

Phil Blake played a couple of short term seasons. Not available when it mattered most.
Allan Langer went home before the end of his contract.
Great Mackey did about 12 weeks and returned so you could say him...dis we ever win a trophy in that 2nd coming?..
We really have had no luck with aussie halfbacks for decades...if ever even!!

| Nathan Wood(s), I can never remember if there is an "s". Not suggesting he was a superstar but he did the job.

Yes but once again not a full contract but you're bang on with one full season.
Really we are desperately trying to find one. It does nothing the say that aussie star backs...omitting Nat Wood, are a poor return.

No question.
He's awesome.
By and large we've had better returns £ for lbs from NZ imports.
They seem to have an honour that is lacking with Aussies.

Massive generalisation but I think the Kiwis embrace the opportunity of living abroad more readily than their Antipodean cousins.
