I'm pretty sure I saw Trindall bark orders at Brailey especially after he decided crash plays were the way to go.

If he isn't organised or demanding, the how is he getting try assists, kicking 40/20s etc?

He had many opportunities to take the ball for a scoot, and when he does he stops and looks to pass.
I’m more critical of the fact nobody runs in support than the idea of our 80kg hooker looking to move the football around

The only way for Brailey to get better, is if he gets a breather during games. Need the 2 dummy half system, the bloke tackles all game, and has to conserve energy for the whole 80 playing in the middle. Probably why he hardly runs or always opts for simple crash plays. Most clubs use two dummy halves, and that includes giving the top 9's a break. Mcinnis, Berrell and Atkinson can be options, and if they perform well thatll also put pressure on Brailey to step up or try be more crafty

Yep - we wanted Levi on the field for as long as possible - how many clubs have punted him now ? Sorry to see his serious injury though TBH ..

He is not getting benched, even though that may be the right call because his dad is part of the woodwork of the club.

Flanno was so hard up for building material he used Blaykes dad to build a new wall in the clubhouse

Well... I say tear that down and use build a new bench with it!

North Queensland would take him. They love taking our rejects and then beating us in the finals.

Chad & Holmes rejected us - maybe they wanted to play behind a better hooker

Obviously Fitz doesn't read this form otherwise he would be aware of Brailey's major issues . Maybe Sir Chad needs to let Fitz know how his No 9 needs to play.

JMO made that mistake and look what happened to him

The sooner Fitz logs on the sooner we can turn this season around

for a bloke who contributes **** all elsewhere on the paddock, you think he would be able to get to dummy half
Not his job on either play.

First one that is the half’s job. Not the hooker’s.

Second one was the hooker’s job. Brailey was actually playing halfback.
