Yep.

Probably three yesterday pretty much landed 1-2 metres from the tryline. I do think he needs to aim for 10m out, there's no room for error when they're that close.

Bloody great when he gets it right though.
Yeah a bunch of great ones and then the one Kris caught with a foot ingoal hurt us bad. Would rather they each fell a few meters shorter and than one not have hurt us.

Better then Moylan* too
Just watched the press conference.. sounds like Tricky is going to be dropped or used as a utility and Moylan will keep his spot.

In a way I get it but at the same time it’s also weird and doesn’t really make sense considering how much value Tricky has added to our team to not even give him a chance to run around with Hynes
The positive is he goes out on a win in terms of his performance. This is pretty crucial in learning /training. Slow and steady wins the race IMO with this stuff.

I’d play him as bench utility and not be afraid to play him at dummy half or bring him on for Moylan for a spell in the middle of the game.

Has Trindall really even come on as a dummy half before?
I just can't really think of seeing him play there. Not sure if he can or not.
Has had some shockers as an impact 13 previously though so can't be much worse.

I think he has learnt from those and is a much better player now. I think he knows now that if he comes on in that situation, he plays like he is now.
If Moylan has to stay at 6 when Nicho comes back I'm happy with Tricky being 14. But of course, at who's expense?

It’s actually pretty sad that to see that he will be used as a utility or dropped to NSW

Kids a half, a gun half… in just 3 weeks he’s outplayed the senior half and it wasn’t even close.

Moylan should feel extremely lucky if he gets to keep his spot

I don’t think he should be 14 Chad, it’s not beneficial for anyone

We get rolled in the forwards often and to lose some grunt just to show that he’s rewarding Tricky with a bench spot is detrimental

I agree mate (**** again I agree with you!) but as we don't think Fitz is going to drop Moylan then where else can you put him?

The question would be-can he keep it up? Consistency is the hardest thing to get right.

He takes the Williams/Graham/Tracey jersey that plays bugger all minutes.

Yeah we really need to stop playing him off the bench. Not sure who else we had for today though; do have quite a few players out.

And they would have gotten exactly the same amount of minutes

Tricky was injected when we were dominating, unlucky for him it changed very quickly

No such thing as coincidences mate. Sell him to the Knights
