Could Joe Mellor be that half-back?

He'd be my choice to partner Finch next year. An ideal pairing IMO. The contrast between the two and their varying styles of play are what I'd like to see our HB combination be.

The link of finch and mellor would provide the differing styles we are looking for, do people think he is ready for a first team spot yet or is he still a prospect ?

I think so. At the end of the day the only way were going to find out is by playing him. Look at Lomax and Gaskell at Saints. Both inexperienced before the start of this season yet have gone on to form a great partnership this year. Mellor would have the advantage of being placed alongside an experienced player next in Brett Finch.

Could Deacon and Mellor share the 7 Spot next year? IMO unless we get an absolute surge of injuries this year, Mellor wont really get his chance, it might be worth Deacon signing on to play for one more year on a pay as you play contract, as Mellors mentor throughout his debut super league year?

When?
Can't see it tbh, we have a lot of depth in the forwards already.
