Parramatta backrower Shaun Lane admits his current form is probably the best of his career - but is quick to qualify it hasn't come early or quickly."Mate, this has been four years in the making," Lane told Wide World of Sports of his wide ball-running and offloading and sparkling combination with five-eighth Dylan Brown."It's all a process and we have had our ups and downs since we both arrived here in 2019."But now we have been playing alongside each other for a while and know each other's games."Brad (Arthur) lets us play what we see and encourages us to back ourselves and we both like to have a go if we see something is on."We are the top offloading team in the comp and while it is sometimes risky, it is definitely one of our strengths."I feel Brad has handed us a big role and we are enjoying it."Lane also puts a good pre-season down to his breakthrough year."I trained really well in the summer but then got hit with a few niggles - I did a hamstring and got a few bumps and bruises that wouldn't go away."I'm still carrying a few injuries but so is just about every player in the comp - it's what you do this time of year."Bottom line I feel I am in the groove, so is the team so we just play through the pain and hope the results keep coming."
