Lomax slotted three conversions and accounted himself well on the wing against a physical Kumuls defence.
The Temora Dragons junior also recounted the hairy moment when a light tower looked set to fall on the field during the clash between his Prime Minister’s XIII and Papua New Guinea.
Fans raided the pitch during the commotion and took photos with players before play resumed.
"I was pretty scared to be honest … but at the end of the day, it shows how much respect these people have for you," Lomax told nrl.com.au.
“They look up to you. If we can give back the slightest thing, that's our job done.”
