Lawrence will be a better 5/8 than Fittler Daley Lockyer and Lewis. Sheens is a genius Lawrence will be wearing the sky blue no 6 jersey for game 2.

put him at fullback.

having him chime into the backline is going to suck plenty of defenders in and allow more motion on attacking raids.

he could do so much more damage from the back with our current team.

Whatever the reasoning behind that selection, it was proved to be incorrect. Lawrence was, as predicted by people on this forum who are not professionals but nonetheless astute judges, completely ineffectual as 5/8\. The whole team suffered as a result. Did we have more than 2 backline movements in the entire game? Crazy stuff.

Lawrence is a specialist centre. He runs lines and angles, and looks for holes. He's not a distributor. His versatility extends no further than playing right centre.

What, and get rid of Moltzen?! I'm shocked!! Shocked, I tell you! Sounds like a pretty good idea if you ask me.

I wouldn't be against him moving to fullback, but it won't happen.

The injjury to Tedesco crippled this team.

100% right Hybrid People will realize in 2013 how much we are missing Tedesco in 2012

that is a massive statement.. he is well off the mark at the moment.. and he is too much of a structured player that mitigates risk wherever possible… halves and five eights need to have a risk element to their game..

i would… id have marshall there before lawrence... i dont think chris can 'chime' like the good fullbacks.
 
After reading all the responses, and it's something that hasn't been brought up so far. I'm starting to believe he did it to be less disruptive to the team.

As crazy as that sounds, when Ayshford was being used as the utility and he came on, there was a massive reshuffle in the team.

Reddy, Lawrence, Ryan, were all given stints in the forwards.

Lawrence was also pushed to five-eighth and Humble or Fulton pushed to hooker.

Sometimes due to injuries but not always.

Putting Humble as the utility makes sense as you can keep avoid a reshuffle. Although, Humble probably has a better brain when it comes to making the "half/five-eighth" calls. But Humble is a much better choice for utility then Ayshford right now.

Welcome to the concept of satire.
