Yep, tricky is the 7, always been a 7 and is better suited to being a 7 then Hynes is. Hynes said himself this pre-season he is more of a 6/five eighth role..

Because Fitzy refuses to make the call everyone still sees Hynes at 7 and judge his games based on that role instead of being judged based on the role that’s closer to Munster, Luai, Brown etc

It makes no sense
Yes spot on .

We all joked about the 6 and the 7 and it was all good banter , but I genuinely believe it would have eased the pressure by just switching the numbers , Riccio said the role change / tweak was going to happen going back 6 months - no secret .

I know it’s just a number and it doesn’t matter but the comparisons to other 7’s will not stop.
It also would give Tricky an extra lift .

As Wiz points out , you then compare him to the guys mentioned in the 6 - fair enough .

At the end of the day , I still back the guy all the way..

I think that Kennedy would make a decent half but can't see it happening.

No way I'd be putting Nicho in the forwards.

The world is a crazy place.

I agree. It’s just a number but the media have a hard on for any number 7 whose on decent coin who has a couple of bad games.

How often do we hear of Walker, Munster, Burton etc when they play ****. Hardly ever.

Put Nicho in the 6, take some mental pressure off him and give him a licence to play what’s in front when he sees it. Trindall can do all the organising and less glamorous ****.

You're not familiar with Star Wars? I so envy you...

Nicho looks a bit like Anakin Skywalker, actually...
I’m very familiar with Star Wars. Saw it as a young teen when it first came out in 1977. Gradually over the years I managed to see all the others but not once do I recall hearing the word padawan. Who said it and who were they referring to? And how is it relevant in the Nicho Hynes thread?

Nicho was once a Padawan.
