Disagree with this. Lomax is a promising six who suffered from Potters blind allegiance to players who were not on form. We would have a complete six in the making if we had realised the potential Lomax has in this position.

I can't say I remember Lomax ever being immense when played at 6. I thought Gaskell did better when played in the halves last year than Lomax ever has, but that may have been down to the opposition.

This is not to say I think he'll never make it at 6, and I don't think he's looked out of his depth anywhere (bar possibly centre), but let's not over egg the pudding at this stage.

He was all class against Bradford at KR last season. In fact, he had a few good games in that spell IMO.

thats the game i was thinking about, he looked a real natural there

I think Lomax would / will make a good fullback and Gaskell the better halfback. The only concern I would have with Gaskell is the defensive side of his game which has been found wanting in a couple of the games I have seen him play, but that may have been due to his playing in three or four different positions.

They were really poor in that game though, IIRC.

I believe he's played there a lot in the U20's, so he's obviously got the ability to play there. I just don't feel I've seen enough creativity from him in his first team games, unlike Wheeler for example. There are numerous possible reasons for this of course, inexperience, coaches orders, the fact he's spent most of his time on the wing, etc.

I hope my thoughts are unfounded, he has a run of games and turns out to be a great, but I just have my doubts at this moment in time.
