Trindall looks pretty good in attack to me.

He does, as did moylan

But at the end of the day we are still in the exact same position, we control the footy we can beat up the weaker sides with ease, but if we self destruct with poor ball handling and discipline the better teams bitch slap us around

Better than Moylan?

for me, I had several issues with Moylan, and they are:
tackling (style, positional)
defence (links back with his tacking )
fitness (his hammy are shot, unable to run long distance and at speeds like nicho.
kicking - general, short and long kicks are average at best. Short kicking game nil and his long range kicking game piss poor

Trindall is an improvement in all above. Has a good short game kicking game and monster long kick.
just need time in FG and be position to develop
when our forwards actually go forward, we see a successful halves combo

The 321 has unfortunately become a bit of a shamozzle

I like how people refer back to the 321 vote as evidence. It’s a circular argument.

“I said Trindall was going to be good, I gave him 3 points, and therefore I was right”.

I think this is what Sparkles is getting at Chad.

On the 321 in general I agree Chad. Vote for whoever you like. Just understand that the 321 is the forum majority vote, it encompass everyone’s biases, and is not the ultimate truth carved in stone. Majorities can be wrong, and agreeing or disagreeing with a majority doesn’t make anyone’s position stronger or weaker.

If someone who said Trindall was the second best player wants to carry on like a pork chop because someone else had him fourth, it says a lot more about the poster than the player.

I'll get shot for being reasonable, but we haven't seen Tricky against challenging opponents. Early signs are looking good though. His defence is solid (Wade is very helpful too) and we're adapting to a new attacking style that's almost dependent on him... Nicho looks a bit deer in the headlights at times.

I'm liking our attack atm. There's plenty of support in the middle, Blayke's running. Forwards are getting back to their best. Would still like to see Nikora used, we've moved completely away from that.

Hopefully we'll be less predictable to teams for the rest of the season as a result. If Tricky can show some steel under pressure, Nicho can find his groove and our forwards stay healthy, we might give the comp a shake yet.

Why? I don’t think so. Nothing wrong with people voting for whoever they think deserves the points. It’s completely up to the individual. No shemozzle as far as I’m concerned.

I gave three points to the shamozzle so I must be right 😉

This is no way being critical of CM's efforts, just to clarify.

It is pretty openly become an extension of the arguments people are having and more personal point scoring. There's **** posting and gaming the results for a laugh. It's a shame really, the results would be genuinely interesting if they were legitimate.

So just curious, Do you believe that the overall 3-2-1 recipients deserve their votes over the past few games or do you think they are “strategy” votes based on people’s agenda’s?

Last 3 rounds with Trindall in and Moylan out….

ROUND 21 (Kennedy - 3, Ramien - 2, McInnes - 1)
ROUND 22 (McInnes - 3, Hazelton - 2, Williams - 1)
ROUND 23 (Trindall - 3, Katoa - 2, Hiroti - 1)

It's not what I think, it's pretty common knowledge. You can find conversations saying as much if that was the way you'd like to spend a Sunday.
