So with "genuine" halves how much better do we go this season? We finished 2nd ffs...

Not bad for 2 hacks @ 7 & 6 that can't control a game

Our halves were not really the issue during the finals. Wern't perfect but they had a **** sandwich to work with thanks to the rest of the team outsourcing their ball handling and defensive skills to Uzbekistan

Coming 2nd then bombing straight out in the finals is actually embarrassing ..so embarrassing it rarely ever happens.

Yes our halves game management is terrible, our whole spines game management is terrible tbh. Moylan is the worst five eighth out of all the top 8 teams by FAR it’s not even close, it’s a massive problem.

Look at Ilias at the south’s and what he does for Walker to free Walker up and let him do his thing. Is Ilias better then Trindall ? No.. don’t let that go over some of your heads

You’ll catch up one day mate

You do realise, that the half you are chasing to free up Nicho and manage the game, is exactly the type of half that you so desperately wanted to leave last year.

The place where some think Brailey is better then Mahoney, Connor Tracey would make a good half or centre and Chad Townsend and Moylan are good halves.

Got to LOVE it

I didn’t know Hynes was playing last year ? What’s your point

Chad is better as a secondary playmaker..if he is your primary playmaker you are in deep trouble. As we know SJ loves to float in and out of games, Chad was doing a lot

A Chad and Hynes combo would be very good

I remember hearing Fitz was adamant to keep him and was disappointed that he left.

IIRC,
Chad mentioned something in an interview that he had a convo with Fitz and that Fitz said that there was a place for him.
Chad then also mentioned that it was him that told Fitz that the offer was too good to refuse and that he wanted a new challenge. Fitz then gave him his best wishes.

It went something like that…

chad mentioned in an interview that fitz wanted him to stay as he had his eyes on another half to partner him which turned out to be nicho

there is also a good interview with SJ floating around that talks about his convo with fitz, the minute we signed nicho fitz called SJ and said i want you to stay for a year and be the half back, SJ took too long to give him and answer so fitz pulled the offer

fitz pulls no punches

sounds like the same situation with joe o - we wanted him bad but he was stalling so fitz told him to **** off and now the **** is stuck at the tigers

That bits good, the bit about wanting to keep SJ for another year isn't.

I get the thinking behind it but SJ is the last person I'd want a new HB learning from. The guy is a massive flake.

Interesting conversation whether Chad/Nicho, Nicho/SJ or Nicho/Moylan would be the best combination.

Nice little news article in the news section about Moylan signing another extension. Good news

www.foxsports.com.au

‘He just cares’: Matt Moylan to ink two-year extension after stunning form turnaround

‘He just cares’: Maligned star’s redemption complete as contract extension imminent
www.foxsports.com.au www.foxsports.com.au

Seriously through, why do old articles get posted as news in the news thread?

It's because Fox sport's website automatically updates the date on all their articles for some stupid reason.
