Lawrence back to 5/8

Happy tiger - that's exactly what will happen.

At the moment, Moltzen is actually 5/8th in attack - this will not change when Lawrence is back in the team - he will only defend at 5/8th. Simply means Fulton will shift in defence as a second rower again and Moltzen will play the same game which is working well (defend at fullback and attack at 5/8th). Moltzen, despite all the critics is actually a very good ball player that punters on the forum fail to realise! This is why the Dragqueens wanted him so badly.

He will just play a role like Fulton does, run hard and straight and tackle hard. As long as he doesn't have to do any ball playing it will be fine

With Fulton at 5/8 Sheens realised he needed to move Moltzen to 5/8 to partner Marshall when in attack.
What a disaster that has proved… not.
Maybe he should have left them where they started off in round 1\. :unamused:

I don't like Lawrence at 5/8\. Just seems too rushed and I dont think his instincts are good enough to ball play. As a running 5/8 he'll do fine, but atleast Liam has good instincts and he can also hit the defensive line and offload, something Lawrence does rarely if ever.
The worst part is Chris will be back around round 26 where our season is on the line in high pressure games. Very disruptive imo.
Can only hope Fults does enough in the next couple of games to force Sheens to keep him at 5/8.

That said I dont want Koro dropped, he is our X factor in the finals. Nor do I want Utai dropped or benched.
Its a tough one for Sheens i think and will be one of the biggest factors in our season.
