Before the season started I wanted Lomax starting at centre and said that he was the best outside back prospect that we have had since Gasnier.
Funny, very early in the season, when Aitken was playing well and getting rave reviews, I made a comment saying that I wanted Aitken to get injured as that was the only way he was going to not be in the team and that is the only way that Lomax was going to get a shot as Mary wasn't going to be dropping Aitken and promoting Lomax. lol I think it was Old Timer and Dragonsammy who both commented on my Aitken getting injured comment. I expected a bit of flack for that comment, but now it looks like I have been proven right again. lol Just imagine if Aitken did get injured early in the season and Lomax got a start. We probably would won the minor premiership and Lomax would have been one of the top contenders for rookie of the year, as I predicted he would win, if given the chance to play first grade early in the season.
