While I agree mostly, I think most of his kicks out of our end were straight down Turbo's throat. I know it is probably better positioning from Turbo then bad kicking from Trindall but I can see where people would say he had a bad kicking game last night. That would have been my main criticism of last night.

From memory quite a few of those were from around our own 40, most teams put up a high kick from there which the FB takes on the full.

In your head, rent free
he had a decent game but **** me his decision making is horrendous

i get he is 21 blah blah blah, but a grubber kick on the first tackle is never a good decision

I think he just needs to get used to first grade and calm down a bit, maybe he feels his got a deadline on proving himself. Hopefully the addition of Moylan will help him - never thought I'd say that

We were attacking their line in the second half, bit of a brain snap.

Need Moylan back, too much pressure on him with Tracey at 5/8. He's a complete spud in that position.

It must of been when I got up to take a piss or something, I genuinely didnt know about that.

watch a replay if you dare haha

LOL I’m having a good day I’d rather not ruin it thanks hahaha.

I can forgive a young half for that.

Absolutely. At this stage I'd rather him be trying something and making a mistake than being a passenger. Especially as he hit more than he missed this week. Last week I think was the reverse. Once he learns not to overplay his hand he could be a great talent.

Now that we have missed Bellamy let's spend a bunch of that money on a halves coach. Would pay dividends for Trindall and Hynes.

Apparently we were offering Bellamy $1.6m per year, so you'd like to think we could afford a good halves coach for sure.

Yep. Even try pry Ennis back also to help Blayke. There are no decent halves off contract this or next year. So get the best halves coach we can as that could help to attract the next young talent.

I agree , different player next year .
For him it will feel like he has extra time with experience to make the right decions more often than not .
His bombs unlike Chad's differ and are towering.
PS :What the hell is a slow kicking mechanism ? :)
