Not too sure on this. I believe there should be a distinction between a SR, 13 and prop. Lockers, sadly, seems to be a dying breed of a true 13. Bateman has the potential to be a 13. Faz, Flower, Sutton etc who've featured there seem to be just running forwards playing down the middle.
Westerman has the potential to be a ball playing forward, like Lockers. Would be interested to see what Wigan could do with him. And how he'd develop working with Lockers.
Is our long-term 13 not more likely to be Morgan Smithies not John Bateman? Smithies is 18 later this year and should be pushing for a debut next year at the latest.
