Quote ="Saddened!"Gardner is poor. But how bad are Jonny Lomax's hands too? The only thing he caught all night was a stray boot in the chops. A Super League under a bomb should get within 6 feet, he looked ridiculous.'"
Where has Lomax been playing for Saints?
I suppose it's no excuse for constant knock ons but hasn't the lad been brought up as a halfback and when i've seen him in the first team he's been playing fullback/Wing. The same goes for Wheeler who again is a halfback who's been mainly played at centre and Eastmond has been shifted about at times aswell.
Obviously the last 2 have settled into the first team better then Lomax but it can't be easy trying to make your way in the first team in a position your not used to.
I get annoyed with Noble at times because he's reluctant to bring youngsters in unless he truely has to but when he does they tend to play in their correct positions. Ainscough on the wing, Tomkins at halfback and Flanagan and Mossop in the backrow have excelled this year but it must be easier to come in knowing your role and whats expected of you.
