Lyon has said he wants to play this year, if he didn't want to play he could have put in to have his name left out.
Last year were different circumstances, he took a selfish stance and wanted to concentrate on his own form and Manly who were in the sh*t at the time, only 1 or 2 wins in a couple of months when he came out and said not to pick him, his form probably didn't warrant picking him at the time, he said himself that Jennings, Cooper and Lawrence were better options.
Things are different now, Manly running along nicely, he's playing brilliantly, he hasn't played this well (at centre) since he came back from St Helens.
If his form warrants it he should be picked, although I would not complain with Lawrence, Jennings or Morris getting runs ahead of him if they are in better form.
