Hindy does make a lot of second or third man in tackles, no doubt about it.
But he also makes some ridiculous plays - how many times has he chased down and tackled a winger? Countless times. How many times has he made a try-saving tackle in a match where we were barely holding on to a slim lead? Countless times.
I'm not saying he's the best back rower out there. Watmough (though he can't defend), Gallen (though he's a little grubby), Lewis, Thaiday and Burgess are all definitely ahead of him in terms of attacking ability. But Hindy has a massive heart and IMO is the type of player everyone needs at least one of in their side.
I reckon if we had 13 Hindy's in the side we'd never lose. And if we did lose, it would at least be competitive.
Plus Hindy is a top bloke.
Anyway...Boobs.
