I've been saying for some time now that Lomax's game seems better suited to the ruck area than controlling the play at seven. People talk about Roby being dangerous when opposition forwards are tiring and Saints have a roll on but Lomax is a leaden-footed prop's worst nightmare. The kid can step off either foot with seemingly little effort and no telegraph. He's one of the fittest players at the club and his tackling technique is excellent. Throw into the mix a first class skill set, a keen eye for a break as well as boundless enthusiasm and you've got the makings of a lethal rake.

I was really encouraged by the chip from Lomax on Friday night which was regathered by Gaskell who passed on that lob to Meli to score (great try, that). I've been hoping to see that kind of play from Lomax and so it was a treat when it finally happened.

I think Lomax would be more suited to either hooker or full back. I think some of you are judging Wheeler wrong yes he is a runner and loves to take the line on but he also has an unbelievable rugby brain for his age. Gaskell has done well filling in but he's not even in the same league as Wheeler. I've been told we have another promising stand off in the academy though that has the potential to be world class? The future looks bright no matter where they play.

Agree, I think because Wheeler has been injured so long, people have forgotten how good he is, the Wigan game at DW proved that in that he was Wigoons Worse Nightmare until he was taken out of the game.
