for the last few seasons now and even the future with naughton, Lancaster and lineham we have some of the smallest in height backs in super league hence why we conceded a lot of tries and also fail to score many tries from kicks. if we are looking at a centre I think it's so important we add abit of height to the back line. Even a bang average winger like mantellato can at times be an asset. Anybody else agrea we need some size

Not really. Naughton is short but primarily a full back. Tala and Sa are big guys and the two wingers you mention are not small. Lineham's about 6.2!!. Taller than
Charney
Briscoe
Dixon
Carney
Magilvary
Riley
Ormsby
Cockayne
Penny
Ormsby
Swift
Makinson
Owens to name a few
Easier to pick who's taller
If you picked
rankin
Lineham
Tala
Sa
Naughton ...you'd have 1 of the physically biggest back lines with only naughton letting it down in height. Solid build and apparently freaky strong

Why on earth do you feel the need to continually abbreviate the three letter words and and you. It just makes you look like a right prat.

Bit of an after effect of a day on twitter trying to get within 140 characters. I shall work harder on it. (Does sound a bit chavvy granted)

Josh Mantellato is not bang average. Think he is a good player, especially when catching the high kicks to corners. Add to that his kicking game and I can't see how you can come to that conclusion.
