He's 191cm and 90kgs. Just looks lean (like Carr) because of how tall he is.

Can't take off this game today.. reality is he's very penalty prone AND has a drop or two a game in him.

Don’t compare him to brad abbey. Massive difference.
Brad Abbey never put his body in front of anyone running - Lewis has a real go, and is a smaller body. Prefer him in the halves though or off the bench

Yes maybe but I think you maybe referring to him playing in the halves. This year him playing centres from what I have seen his mistakes are not as what they were last year.

Yeah Abbey seem to be hesitant for some reason as a 1st grader. Lewis has mongrel in him from what I have seen this year last year not as much maybe because he was in the halves don’t know but he seems to be focussing big time on his defence like it.

Exactly why the two can’t be compared. Lewis in the halves for sure

Lewis last year played with a shoulder injury from week 10 needled every game I think that’s why defence was not as good?

He made two really bad drops last week in the centres. One which resulted in a try immediately after.

Look any change atall right about now wouldn’t hurt. It’s not like it can get much worse so why not trial and error... from the games I’ve seen this weekend we are so far behind other sides it’s not funny...

Yeah I agree think we’re better to watch than last year but we are so poor in defence on our right we need changes I don’t think our forwards are aiming up either certainly not a pack to worry our opposition.

Our pack seem to me to be so unfit and start blowing within the first 20-25min of the game... we get dominated up the guts on a lot of occasions which drives me nuts... other teams make 50-60m and we lucky to sometimes make 20-30...

On another note forans defence is a big liability him and hoppa... I was reading 11 tries have been leaked on that side and that’s very worrying

Hopoate missed one on one tackle that led to a try.
Jackson has missed three.
Montoya has let in at least 5 trys from not taking the high ball or poor defensive reads.
Yes the first two games there was an issue with the Foran - Hopoate reads in defence but that seems to be fixed last two games.

Hopoate's carries are very strong.
Try assists got the cut out pass to Jmoz for try against Souths.
Inside pass to Foran after tackle break led to Foran try on Thursday.

There is 8 odd players in the team to be dropped before Hopoate!!!!!
We let Lee go because of his defence while he was our best attacking player, now we no better in defence and worse in attack, one great decision.

How is Lee going with the Titans?
I haven't watched any of their games.

Yes 100% agree last year I think we were better in the forwards. Making more meters. Forwards very soft. Raiders creamed us up the middle. Our right side needs to be strengthened I do like to move Foran to Morris boys side there strong in defence and move Marshall to the right his a tough little player. Hoppa and Montoya shouldn’t be together not good in defence Marshall would help if he leaves them there as why I like Lewis there but everyone is saying he’ll get smashed well I guess we won’t know till he has a go.

Definitely worst on the right side leaking to many points to win any games

Would love for Lewis to have a crack anywhere in the starting 17 but I honestly think Pay doesn't rate him or is it just me?
