One thing that is clearly evident as the season has gone on is, Hynes is starting to transition into the full time traditional hands on the ball all the time Half back where as the start of the season Moyza was running the show when Hynes first returned from injury.
To me, this does seem like it has been the plan with having Hynes slowly take the reigns over the the season with either Trindall or Atkinson slipping into the 5/8th role come 2024.
Tonight the team got killed up front, mistakes didn't help, but no team, no matter how good your backline and halves are will win with no go forward. Remembering the current game his heavily reliant on momentum (going for the 2pts didn't help when on the front foot)
Kaufusi and Hunt as the starting front rowers is not really going to scare to many packs.
Hunt is an impact, short bursts, Oregan just seems like a too nice a guy to have any mongrel.
Going to go out on limb, but Matt Lodge type starting front rower is what is needed.
Uele and Hunt coming off the bench, Rudolf starting with someone (Lodge/JWH type)
