2020 Townsend

[snout]

Chad fans make the most.

He wont be our halfback in 2021.

Sometime this year he will. He needs to. He must. Be ushered out.

I dont mind the guy. He was there in 2016 so immortalised - but seriously he for a guy of his age and experience he has very little natural feel for the game.
He is not a natural kicker of the ball obviously because his kicks are shit. Abominable - amateurish and simply not good enough for this level.

There's a lot of good stuff happening in this trial - and that's all it is - a trial.
but theres some encouraging stuff- some very promising exciting ball play.
But NONE of it from chad.
When the ball comes to him...yaaaaaaawwwn..

Anyways.
This is his last year.
Who knows - he may not even see it out.

I’ll second that motion.

All those in favour, please say, “Aye”...

AYE

 

[shadowboxer]

Who’s going to play his set move known as the Scomo from last year then?
Seriously, I have a love hate thing with the bloke since lobbing back from the warriors.
He is 2016 alumni and his community work + clean cut image is something to be admired but playing is again love hate.
Time will tell I guess

 

[snout]

Every time the ball went to Tracey he was trying to be dangerous.
Deceptive.
Backing up.

In contrast Chad goes out of his way to be predictable.
Safe.
Dull.
Boring.

And the kicking...?!?
FMD.
Unacceptable at this level.

As Greta said

HOW DARE YOU!!!

 

[SadShark]

Some real quality pressure coming up on the hair. Will Bomber have the stones to drop him? Doubt it. “Steady’s the ship” “Controls the game” “Leads the team arou...” ahhh f**k orf. Last year the mediaman was not our best player. Josh Morris & then daylight. Just stop with the Premiership Winner, local junior shit. Nice bloke, top fella. Great in the media. Will look great in Royal Blue with white stripes.

Moylan though. The audacity of that pillock to sit in team colours, near the team.

 

[Special K]

His first touch today being a penalty that he managed to kick backwards was just outstanding

As they commented at the time during the telecast -Never seen that before! Been watching NRL for years and I can say the same

 

[txta2]

He is a gold bar

 

[jack059]

So no one likes the new hair?

 

[Snoop Shark]

He is such a good bloke I really feel for him. He might have a future with the podcast thingy though.

 

[Weaponhead]

Chad in 2020 will be the same as Chad 2019, which is the same as 2018, 2017, 2016 etc. He is what he is.

In the current situation, he is seen as a reliable senior player and so will be one of the first picked each week.

He is angling hard for a media gig but has zero presence.

 

[carcharias]

I’ll have to watch the game again
A nothing game against a team missing most of their best players
I didn’t see Wade or Fifita do anything either.
Maybe they were all thinking about a real game.

difference is, graham and fifita didn’t make the silly simple mistakes chad did either. The same mistakes he’s been making year after year.

aye

Meh
It was two reserve grade teams for the most of it.
Manly were absolute rubbish.. even then there were still in with 10 to go.

let’s not all line up to suck off a new half back just yet.

 

[Quicksilver]

Outstanding stuff death riding one of our players before the season even starts.

 

[coolumsharkie]

He's been stinking up the trial games and the 9's I'll even admit that. Judge him from Rnd 1 though, he's a general non flashy type player remember. Part of what makes him good is his organisational, no mistakes football he plays, so perhaps he's blowing the cobwebs out.

Anyways, good to see some real competition in the squad.

Txta might get his wish soon...

 

[carcharias]

The club goes and pays top dollar for 3 blokes to play off him and he is the only one who manages to play every week.

imagine
Dugan
Moylan
Johnson
All in fit and in form.
Last time he had that was 2016
2017 jimmy shit the bed and gave away 4 million penalties every game.

let’s not forget that manly had just kicked it out on the full because wind took it way over the dead ball.
commentators made a point of how strong it was.
Then chad kicked for touch from half way.
It wasn’t going backwards off his foot , it only happened after the wind got it.
That was the first comment from the commentators
...”and that’s that wind again “ as it went backwards.
Not that it really mattered.
We still had the ball in a better position than from a normal kick off.
