In line after Trindall?Im guessing Atkinson is next in line
Tricky has played 50 first grade games.
Since he replaced Moylan (8 games ago) we have won 38% & lost 62% of our games.
That return needs to be closer to what Moylan managed with Nicho.- 66% win 34% loss.
In my opinion it is not for our star signing in Nicho to change, it is for Tindall to to find the way Moylon won with Nicho as a minimum, but also bring a better kicking game and tighter Left edge defence to the table.
Otherwise we are going backwards...
Some seem to want him doing less, or ‘calming down’, or being a 5/8 so he doesn’t get the ball as much and leans into his run game moreIt's tough to compare a halves partnership such as Trindall who had only eight games with Hynes compared to Moylan who had close to two full seasons with Hynes, so naturally there would be more of a relationship.
I'm happy to be proven wrong with stats, but our left edge defence looked solid with Trindall and Graham.
I don't think any one is asking Hynes to change, rather it's the team's over reliance of him. I'm pretty keen to see a Hynes, Kennedy and Trindall combo next year.
Keep in mind per Fitz Trindall got the promotion despite Fitz not being happy with his form, but rather because need for change was forced.Tricky has played 50 first grade games.

How many of those have been starting and in the halves?Tricky has played 50 first grade games.
29How many of those have been starting and in the halves?
“Starting in the halves” = 29
“Starting in the halves” = 29
I can’t remember to many games where he started in the halves before this season and he only started 10 games this season.
So you are suggesting 19 games outside this season.
Seems a bit high to me but could be right I guess (I just can’t think of that many).

Given Tricky has not had the same time period as Moylan to build combinations and his age I would say the obvious choice is we should have stuck with Tricky and we should next year as well. Hopefully we can let moylan go and spend the money elsewhere.So they didn’t win proportionally more when Trindall came in?
Wow - it’s almost as if it Moylan wasn’t the sole reason for every loss in the first 20 rounds. Who’d have thought?
Oh that’s right. Me
Moylan was ****, but wasn’t the only problem. Swapping him for Tricky made some things better, some things worse, and some things stayed the same.
Ignoring scores and just looking at how he went in a 7 week sample size - Tricky was fine and should have first crack at that jersey next year.
I assume Chad will send these recommendations straight to Fitz.Future Suggestions Based on Poster Feedback:
- Positional Clarity: Given the debates on Trindall's position, the coaching staff should provide clarity on his role to align expectations.
- Skill Development: The mixed reviews on his performance suggest a need for more targeted training, especially in goal-kicking.
- Engage with Fans: Direct interactions with fans on such forums could provide valuable insights into Trindall's development and address their concerns.
