When we signed Welham it did make me have doubts that Neilson was coming back. As has been said he was decent defensively but he offered surprisingly little in attack.
Do we need another centre if we have Welham, Purtell, Blythe, Baile and Ethan Ryan, Mendeika and Uaisele as back up?
Short answer to your rhetorical question is clearly no.
As of right now, the only exception I'd make is if the centre were to be an exceptional one - that though is pretty unlikely and, to be honest, a waste of money in the championship. You just never know who may, 'become available', though, and sometimes you just have to go for it or lose the chance.
Things may change over the season though and with losses of form, injuries and all the rest who knows when the eights come round?
