"Time to put Lawrence in Origin, says Sheens"

I am a massive fan of Lawrence and I think he is destined to be a long term representative player for both NSW and Australia but just lately I have started thinking that he isn't quite ready yet and that putting him in now may not be the best thing for his development.

Another full season as a centre and especially with Tuqiri outside of him and I think he will really mature into a consistent and damaging player. I just get the feeling that on occasions he doesn't quite come up with the right decisions, dont get me wrong if he were to make the team this year he wouldnt be out of place I just think he would benefit with another season to hone his skills.

On Robbie I don't see how he doesn't fit into the team, look at Melbourne and their structure, Cam Smith is the dominant half and Cronk and Finch feed off him, he organises and dictates direction, exactly the same as Farah does with the Tigers. With Bellamy as the coach of NSW I fail to see why Farah can't play the same type of role, granted it takes some more time to get the players around him to play that way but if they pick him, stick with him and then the results will come.
