Obviously this is an undefined situation in the ASRL. In the old days the lock traditionally was like a second 5-8 whereas today the locks are basically a third prop or insome cases a second rower. Taumalolo, Jake T, Gallen, Burgess are examples of players who play exactly like props but have the 13 on thier back basically as a symbol of being the dominant prop in their teams.
None of these players could play five-eight or hooker as they can in the asrl as locks. I think if these players play the role of the prop or second rower on the field the coach should have the option of nominating that player for that position in the sim.
Burgess for example can be a 13 or a prop.
Radley for example coould be a 13 or second rower.
To me it doesnt make sense that a player cant be nominated as a ten or 11 just because they wear a 13 on their back. If they swapped George or Tom, with Sam in the 13 jersey what would change? Nothing because they all play the same role.
