I don’t think it’s much of a split.
90% Trindall
10% Moylan
Nowhere near 50/50 I reckon.

To be honest, I don't think that many people are pro Moylan. It's more Tricky over Moylan will turn around our fortunes v it probably won't make that much of a difference.

V the small group who think we have far bigger problems then who partners nicho in the halves
I'd be more worried about our halves if we were playing like we did in 2007

I thought that was my inference with the second group not thinking tricky would make a difference.

Exactly. The answer to our prayers is not waiting in NSW Cup sorry to say.
A. Youd want to aim higher than a Braydon Trindall as a first choice half
B. Our forwards are getting beaten up lately. Until that is fixed, our halves wont matter

No one is saying he's going to completely change our fortunes FFS.

You sure about that?

Show me who is saying if Tricky comes in we're all of a sudden a premiership contender.

We have problems that contribute to the bigger problem.
1. Moylan is busted, ok let's give Trindall a chance, who is killing NSW cup and early this year showed he can be with the big boys.
2. Forwards are busted, ok let's give Hazelton and Coulqhoun a chance. Hazelton has proven he's got the metal for first grade, and Coulqhoun is doing an outstanding job in NSW cup.
Yeah we have a lack of ball respect and **** defence, but atleast give others a chance to prove they can help fix those problems.
These problems won't go away unless change happens, and in all honesty it's personnel change.
Now is Trindall going to win us the premiership or every game he plays, no he's not, but let's give a chance to a kid who has shown and is continuing to show that he has the goods.

I don't know about it being a split as such. I think you'll find what you might call the 'pro-Moylan' camp actually thinks Trindall is our next half (assuming we don't sign a star). It's more a debate about chopping and changing the side - when that should happen and how you distribute responsibility for us not beating top 8 sides.
But it's tough to find that common ground when there's so much passion for immediate change.

@Wiz seems to think this, although he'll probably deny it.

Will he make the team & Hynes play better ? Yes

Atkinson plays just as well in ressies, he does little things that go unnoticed and is a better defender than trindall.
trindalls game management isnt as strong as people are suggesting, jets have lost big leads with him in and out of the team. its not like he can get them back on track
i believe that is just more than a tricky v moylan situation
the comment about not respecting the ball is spot on, we need to earn the right to play with the ball. We are also hopeless at controlling the ruck which leads to the defense being in all sorts.
fix those things then we can talk about who partners hymes

Of course it is, no one is saying otherwise.

To say the Jets have lost leads with him in and out of the team sounds like a Jets issue not a Trindall issue.
Remember we are just suggesting we give him a go, he ain't going to set the world on fire, but he has more in his arsenal to help our team and more time to develop those skills.

It is now very clear we will not be challenging for the title this year. Moylan peaked years ago and will not be in a squad that wins us a GF. He is both physically and mentally fragile. It's time to look towards the future and bring Trindall in because in the next few years he well may be.

Used to be, certainly not the case the last couple of seasons.

The thing is, a few are saying that there is a "bigger problem" in the team and changing Hynes' partner ain't gonna change the "bigger problem".
We can't change the "bigger problem" in one sitting. You need to start with the small fixable areas, e.g.
1. Halves - issue is Moylan is not up for it, defensively he gets run over, attacking-wise he is slow and offers minimal besides the slick hands. Maybe let's get Trindall in who can defend, who has variety in his passing and kicking and can bring energy to the game. Who also has time to develop.
2. Forwards - our forwards are looking busted and/or only offer below average service. How about McInnes at starting lock, and promote Hazelton and Coulqhoun onto the bench? Might bring more, but hey maybe that's another small attribute of the "bigger problem" addressed.
Yes, there might be a whole attitude issue aswell, but how is Fitz changing the attitude when every week it's the same story? Dropped balls, missed tackles, pushing every play, slow line defence, penalties etc. It looks like his way of addressing the problems is by keeping those who contribute to those problems, and we can't act like it's all new to us, this has been a thing since last year.
