He hasn't kicked on since he got injured, but he can't be blamed for the whole teams recent bad performances. He can't be blamed for the constant handling errors Cockayne his making

He is only young, and needs time. Maybe he should be playing on the wing where his frailties are less exposed.

Also remember Mellars spent most of his time at Crusaders on the wing.

If we had a decent stand off to work with Tim Smith, move Lee Smith back into the centres with Collis, then Lyne and Mellars should give Cockayne and Fox the competition in their position which is sadly lacking.

Said it since his injury he has lost confidence, he needs to start believing and backing himself because we all know he has the pace we've just never seen it. I want him to do well but I think a week or two rest might do him so good.

Knowing him personally I nearly threw my pint at magic. Game was gone but had open field to run break, pass take on fullback. Did none. A sign of confidence i think. Actually couldn't believe grief he got over the general game because he wasn't that bad was far worse players.
Think he may improve, saw some signs, with Ali back n a decent run of games we'll see.

Better defence yes, but hardly much of an improvement, he ran from dummy half more than usual, prob been told to as that is our main tactic when coming away from our ½. But still v. average.

I'm trying to be positive

At the end of the day he's a young lad who needs to be given time. Getting on his back is pointless. He looks to have some of the required attributes to be a good player, a lot will depend I think on what he's got upstairs.
