Has the atkin/lee swap been that much of a failure?
Atkin looks really good from dummy half I think, quick/nippy and is very direct with decent enough distribution.
As a first receiver I think Lee has done ok. His assists are pretty high and generally his kicking game is decent, especially long kicking game. He has kicked 3/4 40/20's this year hasn't he. His assist for Vaivai last week was pretty good as well.
With how we play with quinlan as a 3rd pivot it's not necessarily a bad thing having Lee at half back and some more speed around the ruck. IMO we are only gaining attributes here and not losing much.
Quote="Gallanteer"According to HDM interview with Sheens, Lee has been stuggling with a back problem. Might THAT be the reason for swapping Lee and Atkin around?'"
I thought they swapped cos Lee is absolute pony and only slightly less ineffective when at 7?
