Yeah, I trust in Fitz to make the right call. Just trust in him also to make changes when it's pretty obvious.
One more shitty performance and I'll be on his case if he doesn't make changes. Definition of stupidity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

What will you say to him?

I think there are a lot of people getting a touch emotional about our loss. Yeah, it was bad and unacceptable but we had three good wins before it.

Actually that's insanity.

Stupidity is making unnecessary changes that won't address the actual problems but make emotional fans feel good someone got in trouble for ruining their Saturday.

Yes we did win 3 before but we covered some basic mistakes from the same people each week.

Whatever Fitz is doing to get through his thick skull isn't working.

Maybe something else is needed to focus him?

We’ve never lost 2 in a row, during the season, with Fitz.

Could that be reason why he doesn’t make mass changes after 1 loss?

The definition of stupidity is only ever watching sport on tv then sitting there thinking you know better than people who have played the game and coached the game at the highest levels….

Yeah not sure mate - I understand where you are coming from though. I don't think the perfect footballer exists, they are always going to make mistakes. I do agree that 2 or 3 of them we could look to replace if we get better options but within the club I don't think there are at the moment.

You can't guarantee the guy I haven't watched play Cup won't be the next big thing in the NRL if only he is given an opportunity

Put Trindall on the bench .
Tell team if anyone needlessly gives away possession twice ( stupid penalties or unnecessary 6 agsins ) during the game , they get hooked . No matter who they are .

That's a really good way to put an end to the expansive ball movement and shapes that have seen us score so many points.

Trindall would have played quite a few positions last weekend.

29th minute: Hynes is hooked
45th minute: Moylan is hooked
51st minute: Mulitalo is hooked
60th minute: Ramien is hooked
56th minute: Wilton is hooked
72nd minute: Katoa is hooked
74th minute: Kennedy is hooked

Finish the game with 6 guys + Trindall playing seven positions at once. It's genius. The opposition will never see it coming!

Imagine how good Trindall could be in this scenario. He could pass to himself, kick a 40/20, tap it, pass to himself, dummy to himself, kick in to someone's legs, regather, turn himself on the inside, then throw a long harbour bridge pass to himself to score in the corner.
