Though we could end up seeing trindall swapped for Moylan, then bring him on in when the opposition forwards are tired
really doubt that. I think Fitz is settled on Moylan/Hynes for the time being and reasonably happy how the pairing is going and won't want to interrupt potential further progress.
Trindall will be the one coming on for impact or injury cover. Who he replaces I am not sure. could be in the forwards or halves
Fifita obviously did enough to be preferred to Hunt for round 1 and has done enough to hold him off for now. Although Jets review said Hunt played well. Fifita isn't playing so well that it is his jersey to lose, I think Hunt could potentially play well enough for Jets he forces his way in.
But for now it is Fifitas jersey.
Hunt or Williams vs Trindall is another story. With Talakai starting instead of bench we lose a bit of the versatility him and Tracey give us, probably makes Trindall a bit more attractive.
And it seemed like Fitz may have always wanted to play Trindall off the bench but obviously plan affected by suspension.
I think it's a good sign of the form of our forwards and depth that quality players like Hunt & Williams are currently named as reserves. However prior to the pre-season games who would have thought Fifita & Tolman would be looking as sharp as they are. I think alot were considering them depth, not necessarily starting 17 material.
Though surely Williams (our best forward in 2021 IMO) won't be spending too much time there. Hunt is very damaging but isn't given that much opporutnity / minutes to stake his claim over a solid long stint workhorse like Tolman or an experienced big name forward on a comeback year like Fifita.
I feel as though Fitz is playing the percentages on this one even if it seems a strange bench or a bit light on I think we can make it work and it gives as plenty of options relatively speaking with the outs we have.
