Having missed the last two games can anyone quantify what areas we were more organised etc ?

Or what Trindall was able to do with the 10 extra touches he had compared to last time he played souths (when he got 1 mvp votes and Ronnie outside him got 3)?

My position being Hynes can play both and what has trindall ever actually done other than be popular that makes him need to be our 7 specifically - so completely open to trindall being 7 it he can warrant it but not just because people online call him a genuine 7.

Besides long kicks trindall main strength seems to be effort and he can do that in any position.

Have only really seen highlights of the games so it’s a genuine question. Comments on here only seem to say he has to be our 7 because he played well but not what the difference was

For me,

Trindall:
1. Has a longer kicking game
2. Doesn't seem to get bogged down running the team around (ie can still play eyes up footy in good ball position)
3. Doesn't mind taking some risks (like grubbers in the in goals).

This free Hynes up to play his natural games.

Yes, Trindall can do this at 6 but when Hynes is at 7 they seem to clash with each other (both trying to be dominant).

Let Hynes play like other 6s like Munster, Keary etc

Since when has Trindall been popular.

Up until the past couple of months most in here were pro Hynes.

Like you say all of that sounds like stuff he can do at 6.
So the thought then is an idea Hynes may play better at 6, they may not ‘get in each others way as much’
The team isn’t more organised but the 7s game is less impacted by trying if it is trindall?
Trindall can ‘try things’ at 7 which he can’t at 6 (I thought this was called erratic if the 7 tried things)

Not trying to say it’s wrong or it’s a bad opinion, just looking for anything other than a vibe/hope

I appreciate the effort to answer though. I do agree Hynes can play like Munster or Keary, can also play like Hughes though imo
I think Hynes can play either role (willing to is another question…)

Not sure what point you’re trying to make mate. There are amoeba on Saturn that can see it should be Nicho 6, Trindall 7 when Nicho returns.

@bort let it go, the tribe has spoken.

Put your pride aside and get some rest, be happy that tricky is killing it

I think people just don’t see the game the say way as others. That’s all I can put it down to Bort.

Only a couple of us saw Trindall as a 7 quite some time ago and have continuously received backlash because of this opinion ever since.

You either see the game played the way we see it or you don’t. Or you can choose not to and keep asking people online for an opinion, and you will then try to attempt to refute their opinions.

I’m trying to understand why you keep asking the same thing time and time again, but it’s tiring.

So, what’s it’s going to take mate.

What point I’m trying to make? I asked a question.

Put it this way, incase any single cell organisms are logged on, if I asked how Rudolf went and the only answer anyone gave was good I have a little bit of information, if ask for that to be expanded and get told his defence was okay but he took a lot of good runs and had a great offload I have a lot more information.
I was hoping for more information that ‘he has to be our 7’.

If the only answer anyone has as to why he needs to be the 7 is something to the tune of I think he looks better, then so be it. Doesn’t mean I’m not allowed to ask if anyone can add anything more. I’m not forcing them to.

Apezza already gave you legit reasoning, and you argued that he can do all that from 6.

Why would anyone bother

@bort go have a swim mate, I think you need it. Yes you asked a question but like MS said we’re all a bit tired of trying to explain it to you.

Interesting point you say about Trindall trying things that can be called erratic - I do feel Hynes gets way too much criticism when something he tries doesn't pay off. I guess when you put yourself out in the spotlight you will get more attention.

Go back to SOO 1 when that grubber - that ball took an age to get over the deadball line. There should have been more desperation from others to get to the ball.

I guess when you put yourself out in the spotlight you will get more attention

Personally if it was me, I wouldn't change their numbers on their backs right now - just start playing the modified roles.

That’s the issue I guess - I’m not trying to refute your opinion, I’m asking for more information about it. I do push back but that’s to try and get deeper answers.

You and some others have been extremely high on trindall for some time but doesn’t mean everyone else hated him. I thought he’d take over form Chad at 7 within a couple years of debut. I don’t hate him or not see anything in him.

Remember I haven’t seen these games and can’t watch them. Anyone can see he has to be our 7 isn’t a very deep answer, but if that’s all there is then so be it.

This is the main point.
The number on the back means naught if the player isn’t prepared to play a certain way.

Ideally, they would switch between roles pending the circumstances
I think the main issue is Nicho seems to not want to give up the “main” man role (ever) which can hinder our teams play at times

I’m very keen for them to to play as a partnership. Something Hynes and Moylan did well. I think it can work well for Hynes and Trindall too, shirt number irrelevant.

And I also think it’s something they were building on through season but hindered first by trindall charges, then Hynes injury, unfortunately

This was very unfortunate

I do think that next season, this pairing will be do well (provided Nicho allows it to happen - and I think Tricky will command it a bit more after this season)
