Even if we are forced into playing lomax at 6 we have better options at 1 than wello.

Whilst my line up would be different. I can understand that if Lomax is not FB, then Wello is number 2.

I have no doubt that Makinson is a faster paced player, but he does not organise the defense as well as Wellens. Also you take Makinson off the wing, then you weaken the wing.

If Lomax is not going to play 1, then Wellens should. I would not be talking new deal. With Walsh here next year, there should be no need for Lomax at 6 or 7.

I wonder if we can get GOB, for next year??? That would give us a 6 and 7. Then really we just need props. If we can hire him for a month, then we have cap space available?

Unless we sign a 6, who's going to play there?

I think GOB would be a good signing , he's down the pecking order at Dire and it would be nice to have competition in the halves with Wheeler ,GOB and Walsh . We should simply not even be considering offering Wellens a contract with Makinson, Lomax, Hohaia and Swift in the squad with us looking like we are trying to recruit another another body for the wing.

With Ashe not good enough and Turner never a 6 I think Brown is giving himself a half back selection headache.

Hope Lomax plays and makes a difference today.

Sounds like a bright start, makes a change.

Wheeler I'd imagine. I can't see us getting GOB on a permanent deal.
