He has played for Portugal a few times despite having no Portugese ancestry.

Lomax is a quality player, he unfortunately lacks either genuine pace or size which imo will always hold him back particularly at international level

He is playing behind a very dominant pack against poor SL defence. Most half decent backs can look great doing that but he wont have that same space and time to do what he is doing in SL when it comes to England and he will look slow and ineffective. International teams need half backs that can create a moment of magic and come up with a game changing play from nothing when the games is at a stalemate for long periods, Lomax cant do that. Hes not fast enough or skillful enough.

Haha no he’s not. Lomax is England’s backup fullback when Widdop is injured. That’s about it.

Exactly. You can only imagine what better players like Austin, Williams or Hastings would’ve done playing behind Walmsley, Roby and Thompson and under Justin Holbrook.

Lomax is a good superleague player but it ends there.

he is a good player, but not an outstanding one. Do halves really need pace and/or size? James Maloney has not got a lot of either, and neither did JT.

He's a very very good Superleague player, albeit in a team which is a halfback's dream at present.

Only 80% of a test quality half though for me.

Well whilst respecting the various opinions I stand by my original post especially having watched him run us ragged tonight .He is a terrific player.

He had a great game, thought that challenge at the end on Hankinson looked a bit naughty though, but it was only the one look so who knows.

Don't you think its silly to put little guy in for GB, that's currently playing half behind the leagues strongest pack, up against them big Aussies halfs?

I'm guessing you haven't even thought it through.

I’d love to see what Williams could do behind a truly dominant pack. Sadly we won’t see that at Wigan.

Lomax is a very good player, he also has the huge advantage of playing almost every week behind a dominant pack. He not international class (just my opinion of course).

Lomax has been consistently brilliant at 6 for two years now. Clearly the best 6 in SL, big pack or not.

Class act.

He’s excellent but this is where the debate started a few pages back. He’s not the best 6 at all, Austin is.

Shame he didn’t playa against Saints the other week so we could compare them. Or did he? Can’t remember seeing him.

I also prefer Williams.
