I expect Gannon to turn into a prop in due course. Reminds me of Adrian Morley a bit and I think he'll go the same way.
Mik/Prior and Zane/Tom is a good combination, whichever two you choose to start with. I think part of the rationale playing Zane at 13 is honestly to extend his time on the field to get more value for money.
I agree with you I'd rather see a proper ball playing forward at 13 and Cam is your man. He's also a big lump so keeps our middle tight.
Not sure whether Bentley is a better player than Martin. In some ways probably. Martin is very good when he's in form though, he just had a dodgy period due to Covid I think and he looks through that.

Agree on Gannon, maybe a year or so in the back row and then up to prop.
On Bentley It’s an interesting one. I like Martin but I think Bentley is a better defender, he strikes me as a player you would hate to play against, always in and around the action. I like that I think our pack needs it, however I am not sure Mellor offers enough in terms of attacking wide running ability. I don’t mind Bentley for Martin now we have Seizer to kick the goals.
We could end up with a couple of empty quota spots next year I think which would be a change!
