Mellars showed a lot of speed for his try on saturday my question is why doesn't he support more and show us his speed more often? Is it lazyness? Frustrating the lad could be good.

Nah, at his size if he were any good he wouldn't be with us - and we have paid him a big wedge for the privilege, I hear.

Looks like he can do it in spells though. Maybe coaching him and a mental psychologist we have a chance of him being ok.

mellars is not a centre hence his inability at centre. he played a full season with the cruseders on the wing and was very influential in that team, if i remember he was their top try scorer. we should play him in his natural position drop Fox and play sykes at centre.

Why drop Fox icon_confused.gif What has Mellors done to deserve depriving Fox of his place other than trading on last years reputation and being an Aussie. Fox is not without his faults but Mellor jeez one try!

Quote: vastman "Why drop Fox
I agree that one try doesn't make him first choice, equally, Fox lets in more than he scores. Defensively he is not good, either under the high ball, or when tackling.
IMO he was a better player in his first stint with us than he is second time around.

Must watch a different Fox to me, can't fault him under the high ball - Mellors on the other hand has left him stranded time after time icon_idea.gif

Defensively one really poor game against Warrington and he's crap - how fickle fans are. A few month ago that was Cockayne and it's been Mellors all season.

Really, he's scored 8 tries so far - that is epic for a Trinity winger and about the same as Mellors at this point last season at a guess.

Are you serious???? icon_eek.gif

Both of our wingers have been exposed on many occasions this season and need to improve 10 fold if we are not going to be peppered all season!!

Not saying that Mellars would be better mind as I think a lack of assistance from the centres is partly the reason for the failures under the high balls!

We don't seem to shepherd and protect the man under the high ball like some teams do - watch Leeds and Wigan, who will have the surrounding players artfully running lines that keep the chasers off the catcher, whilst appearing to be watching the ball.
