I actually think Lomax looks the more rounded fullback of all three of them.

Fair play. He had a good game.



It shouldn't be forgot that Lomax was getting plenty of stick on here recently. He's proving his critics wide of the mark.

I wasn't one of them giving stick but for those who were, it was as a number 7 and the stick was more about him not being suited to that position. Turns out those people were right, wouldn't you say? The lad is like a person reborn at fullback.

Like everone else I thought he was excellent.

Getting out of the goal area without touching down and the tackle on Reilly were the outstanding parts of his game tonight for me.



My only reservation as such is can he take being whacked every week without injury?

Lomax was not getting stick, just as Lance was not getting stick.



The only comments about them was that they were not half's and we where a club that was FB heavy.



We still are, but Brown is making the best of what he has. He's tried nearly every possible halfback we have and for sure Wilkin is now a shoe in at 7. He may not be a 7, but by god, he has brought us organisation and temperament.



I particularly liked his end of match interview. The SKY spin started with you are looking alot happier this week. Erm no, SKY just don't listen, last week he was happy with the way we where build and felt we where getting there.

I agree. Lomax has both a very good offensive AND defensive game. Whereas Tomkins has his flaws defensively.



I'd say lomax has to be number 2 to Tomkins atm.



Not seen much of hardaker this season, is he injured? I think he kind of rode the wave a little last season. Maybe that's a tad unfair.

A bit of justification for those of us who've been banging on for years about how his position needs to be at #1 (or #4) and as far away from #7 as possible. Can we now officially just stop wasting his and everyone else's time by trying to make a scrumhalf out of him please Mr. Brown?

If Lomax keeps up both sides of his game, he's got potential to be a better fullback than Tomkins, who isn't the best defensively. His defence was outstanding last night, always in the right position and some great one-on-one tackles.

He is staying there and wello will be loose forward. I'm happy lomax is staying fullback, I like the way he joins the line outwide acting as a extra halfback.



I'm not sure on wello playing loose forward. It seems we are just trying to fit wello in the team.

It'll be interesting to see how well suited he is to it. He certainly isn't going to be a powerhouse LF, but with Wilkin in the halves it might not be so bad to have someone with decent hands in the back row.

I think our backrow of sia, Manu and flanaghan is pretty impressive but would wello spoil that ?



I've said all along, if he's not fullback he shouldn't play.

I think you're probably right, but I'm happy to see it tried out for a few weeks.
