Lomax will play, he's very important to our attack. In fact, he's basically our x factor player in attack. He terrifies defences.

Tommy been doing good job but he's basically dead with the ball 90 % of the time. His defence and kick taking is as good as it gets but he has no attack so imo lomax has to play. It was no coincidence we started scoring points last year and went on 12 game run when lomax came back. He's also England fullback and had good 4 nations.

Lomax was fit to play last nigjt but we didn't risk him.

I thought Jack Owens was good last night. No mistakes from him, he scored a try and I'd bet made most carries on the field.

I think the team will be more likely to pass the ball in Morgan's direction when they know Makinson is outside of him.

The kick that Smith put in for Owens was well weighted and bounced nicely but when he put in lobbed kick for the corner Owens didn't get high enough.
That is one area where Makinson excels, if Smith can put high accurate kicks to the corner Tommy will out jump most wingers.
If KC gets them on working on that it could be worth a try a game .

I agree we need to work that right hand side a bit more otherwise the opposition will just load up the favoured channel. At the moment we have Percival, Taia, Wilkin and Fages on that side with just LMS and Morgan on the other side, I think I would use Makinson/Lomax (full back) as an attacking link up on that side.

I watched NRL last season and Morgan has neither. He makes wellens look like Hayne in the speed stakes. He's pedestrian and even grey viane had better footwork
