Was about to say the same thing. Lewis gives you options on the edges when he's in the forwards that Nathan Smith's limited skillset can't replace.


Lewis is one of the best second rowers running at the edges in the NRL. When he goes to 5/8 he is more worried about passing.

I think the Panthers have no choice, they have to get Lewis back to the forwards. Surely one of Kingston, Iosefa or Seluini can play in the halves - perhaps not well, but solidly enough to allow Lewis to return to his best on the edges.

Do that, and they can win this.

Iosefa has probably played his best games for Windsor this year in the halves. Including last week which got him back into First Grade.

Penrith holding on well here, the Storm didn't look like scoring in that set. (They'll probably run up a cricket score now).
