Ricky Mentha is still listed and hasn't registered a score through three rounds, consistent with the RED intel flag on this Melbourne rookie DEF. At $119.9k and an 18 BE there's theoretical upside, but with no average and no clear path into the senior side, he's a last-resort bench filler at best. Avoid.
