I agree. We may have a few players that aren't suited to their current position, contrary to what some of the coaches and so called expert commentators think.
DB is NOT a 5/8. He is more suited to centre. Lacks any kicking game or creativity required of a half. Good defender and a strong runner. 1:1 with some room out wide, he would do very well.
Penisini could be better suited on the wing, similar to Brian To'o BUT if I were a coach, I'd train him in the hooker role. Built low off the ground with strong leg speed, he could be a revelation. Defending in the middle will be much easier for him. A real headache for the opposition with his strong darts from dummy half.
Lomax, definitely more a winger than a centre. HOWEVER with his size and strength. I would like to see him give 5/8 a go. With some kicking game practice, I could see him being a Freddy Fitler type player. Big and strong with some good footwork. He would be a better and more devastating running no.6 than our current one.
No . His decision making was equally as bad on the right . He just doesn't have it between the ears , he gets burnt for acceleration to add injury to insult . Very average player that the club through BA put on a high perch.
OMG, it's great to see a few people calling this out consistently now, dumbe defensive reads and lack of pace!!! I can't believe he's still in the side and not to mention JAC has a case of frostbite playing outside of this centre that refuses to look outside.
"The issue with CTE is it will challenge the nature of our sport — repetitive collisions and tackles — not just head knocks, concussions, big hits. But for now as it can only be diagnosed post-mortem with permission, it's an asteroid we aren't…"
"I just saw the warm up hit and now I am quite upset. He was fed to the wolves
On-field it probably would have been cat1.Sending him out there was risky but leaving him out there was a terriblefailure in duty of care
Not removing him after the second…"

We've got 2 shit defensive centres. Why does Lomax rush up for no reason
Agree there with lomax, he has no idear how to read the play. Twice today he has rushed up and missed everything.

Could moving to the left have anything to do with it?
Shouldn't and his defence on the right last year wasn't anything to write home about

Can't pass either. Just a battering ram.
Can't and refuses - both just as bad
He couldn't read a comic book.
