Yea 100% if people watch his ball highlights and expect him to replicate that they will be disappointed. I think he can come in and do the same thing he's been doing in cup by keeping his defensive positioning locked in with his edge and playing within the system in attack. I think Volkman is unlucky to get overlooked however his reads in defence are still hit and miss so I get it.
Only one big difference, Brown's defence was already up to par before even getting to NRL. Lorenzo has a bit of work to do. But not against him debuting.
Personally , I rate Lorenzo highly. Just bit worried about coming into a side that is leaking points everywhere. He is a better front on defender IMO than what PEZET has shown so far. He definately has great feet and plays eyes up footy very well. We are not playing world beaters in Titans but they have some talent there. One thing you will get from him is a kid that will have a footy awareness and ability to identify weaknesses quickly. Think he may play slightly wider at 6 and a little deeper to give him that fraction of a second to make his decisions. He will play NRL so as good as any I suppose. API replaces Simmo and Joash retains no 1.

I reckon TBA will get a few debuts this week.
Hows his defence? He's pretty small Jai Gray type player, or maybe a Nikorema. Is his best position 6??
Rockets out of the line and puts shots on. Not sure about his reads though, but wouldn't worry about size
Its his only position......if he is selected
Hope he kills it if you are old enough you are good enough then maybe we can sunset the Pezet experiment it is a complete failure
We should have started him round 1, just like we did with Dyl Brown. We would have been building combos for the next couple of seasons.

Yes I see that as an alternative, given Twidle's run on the wing
