I've seen him play, yes, at fullback. He'll presumably have some direction over the defence from that position. But I haven't consciously watched him to see if he's talking! I've been watching the match and I've been impressed with his skills. I love his speed from standing start, his passing, his ability to score tries, his supporting play, his short kicking game, his elusiveness and his willingness to put the hits in for defence. All those are good things that are equally applicable to a halfback as to a fullback. The only bit we don't have is the vocal bit because he is playing at fullback at present. Since we now all know I was right when I said he HAD played at 6 in the NRL then we can assume he knows something of what is required of him.
Lomax, however, was asked to do a job that was meant for someone else. He's a quiet lad and so may never make it as a halfback. We'll no doubt get a better idea next season when there will be options rather than no choice due to injuries.
