Yes mate I think you are right.
Just my opinion, love to see the ball playing lock back but wouldhave to be in the wade graham, j turbo mould to survive today’s game

Won’t make metres hitting the ball up,
Let’s go through a list of locks
Taumalolo
J turbo
P Gallen
S Burgess
R matterson
D finucane
J Fisher Harris
T glasby
J graham
N brown
V Radley
J arrow
J papali


Now most of the are rep players or former
Radley the only one with similar size to Lewis, but runs harder and hits harder
We would have the worst lock by that far its not funny
And we have Adam Elliot, and I still wouldn’t pick Lewis in 13
Show you our depth, every team has a rep standard lock except us

Now put Lewis name with those guys.... no thanks
Haha thanks for posting this. Makes everyone suggesting Lewis would be more effective at lock look like complete fools

Melbourne storm use Brandon Smith in this way. Smaller ball playing lock
Storm play with Paps and Smith on together with only a single prop at times. Deadset Smith plays through the middle better than any of our actual forwards lol.

Brandon Smith is a complete beast, him and Lewis not even in same planet
Compare a Smith hit up with a Lewis hit up! You can’t carry a player these days because they can tackle...

I don't think Lewis has the build currently to be a Lock but I think that can be changed. These days with the high tech ways players a trained with regards to what they are feed to the weight training they do players can be molded if they they have the body to suit. I think if required Lewis has the right body to be strengthened to handle the extra load. He would still be a ball playing lock but up-sized to meet the strength. Remember Sam Burgers mentioned how tough it was getting tackled by Lewis earlier in the year.
