brought to you by the same people who produced "The Gasnier experiment".

no way lewis should be 5/8

 

[Parraren]

Surely they will pick Mullen at 6.

Lewis at lock makes more sense.

 

[VictorTheViking]

How can you say that there are better players than tongue when the majority that are being mentioned for the lock position or bench spots play a completely different role for their respective teams?

Lewis at 5/8?
QLd 1-0 after Melbourne.

 

[maple_69]

If he was played as a second lock and the kicking duties were mainly shared by Wallace, Gidley, Farah and possibly Wing, it might work, but why bother with that, put proper halves in who are performing in those positions at their clubs and put Lewis at lock where he is performing outstandingly for his club.
Not rocket science.

 

[Shorty]

This has got to be just speculation.
There's no way Lewis should be at pivot with the variety of options available, Lewis is good as a utility.
I know that the too many cooks issue may arise, but Mullen is a very good ball runner and Knights fans probably argue he's better running the ball anyway..

The "too many cooks" arguement doesnt wash with me at all.

Qld have 1.Slater/Hunt
6.Lockyer
7. JT
9.Smith
All these guys are ball players and seem to get along just fine winning games

thats cos they know and accept their roles. with inexperienced players it's harder to do that

in saying that qld votes for anasta at 6 :sarcasm:

Hunt is not a ball player at all, he's just a very good support player.
Cam Smith/JT and Lockyer took a little while to gel.
JT and Lockyer especially struggled to find a good consistency in who called the shots.

 

[Hanscholo]

Jeez Daley changes his mind a lot.

 

[bluesbreaker]

:lol: NSW are gonna get smashed if they trot out Lewis at 5/8th. Or Kurt Gidley. Or Anasta.
