The controlling player is still the 7, and the 6 is the secondary play maker.
Hynes at 6, gets to play whats in front of him a lot more instead of having the workload pressures of game management.
Numbers and positions still matter, if Hynes was playing 6 this season i reckon he wouldve been the blues 6. He's a running five eighth and so is Moylan, what was needed was a genuine halfback in the halves. Trindall has adapted and stepped up playing 6, prefer him to be more in control at first reciever and manage games next season
