Zac Lomax is finally playing in his preferred centre position but NSW Blues coach Michael Maguire still sees an Origin winger in the Eels’ star signing.

But there’s no reason why he can’t . He’s just got to keep playing consistent and keep doing the things he’s doing. There’s obviously a fair bit of chatter around how he’s performing.“That means he’s doing something well and he’s got to keep doing that.
