“I’d like for you guys to feel my performances on the weekend are showing that. My focus is here at the Dragons and being the best teammate I can. Lomax has been one of the best wingers in the NRL despite making it clear it’s not his favourite position. Picture: Matt King/Getty Images“With everything that went on with mine I guess it went on for a little bit longer and it sort of gained a fair bit of momentum,” he said.“Once it was done, it was done and it was good to just sort of put it all past me.”
“I’d like to hope that you guys can see I’ve proven that and been able to do that on a weekly basis. I feel we’ve started the season well and there’s a few games we could have performed better in patches. I’m positive and looking forward. “I love the club. I’m a local junior and obviously played my 100th a few weeks ago, and I got a bit emotional, especially having my family here,” he said.
