| Quote St pete="St pete"I agree, he's to slow at halfback, I don't mean as in pace, it's his speed of thought and basically lack of rugby brain.
I've played stand off most my life and was always taught to play with my head up and play what I see, lance certainly plays with his head up but it seems to take a eternity for his brain to trigger what he sees.
I think years of playing fullback, where the is more space doesn't help as he needs to play when the aint space.'"
I agree, I think playing at fullback he would have space similar to that against Leeds most weeks and he would be able to influence the game far more just like Tomkins does at W***n

| Quote BackrowSaint="BackrowSaint"I'm guessing they wanted Sia for impact when TP and Perry came off. Was he playing at prop today he defended very central?'"
Sia should be starting, he can play long mind and has been out best forward this year and brings aggression that we lack.
Put lazy bones TP on the bench and let him impact the game.

| Lazy bones?
I think the big plus for Lance is that this was a tough close game. He certainly put himself into the game and made an impact. He turned us around after we had been pummelled for 10 minutes.
That's what we want from a half back is'nt it, not just a halfback who can play behind a dominate pack, but a half who can take control and impact on a game when it's more even.

TP is lazy in the backrow and goes missing.

| Quote SaintsFan="SaintsFan"I agree.'"
I noticed this in his very first season, if he's in the backrow he's lazy and goes missing, if he's put in a prop he can't go missing as easy.
IMO hes a prop, hes played his best rugby at prop and can be devastating if he get more ball. we've got LMS and clough to give him rests.
We are putting sia on the bench to accomadate TP in the backrow and we lose the all action player that sia is.
I'd even play Laffranchi in backrow before TP.

I Agree TP is far more effective at prop. Saying that I still think Sia will find a natural home at prop

I posted that sia would end up a prop last season. I still think he's a backrow at the moment tho.
He's added few yards of pace to his game this year and is much faster than I thought he was.
Sia has had very good season.

I don't think he will have to do stuff like that at saints as we've got better depth and better quality of players.
I'll be interested to see how he sees TP, will he be prop or backrow?
If he sees him as a second row, that will see sia, Manu and TP fighting for the secondrow spots.
Could Sia play 13 or will have wilkin as a extra ball player?
