I Hate Chad Townsend Club

[txta2]

When other supporters and commentators etc say halves problem, pressure is going to start building on the coach and team. Nearly 2 full seasons of really poor boring attacking options most of the time

 

[txta2]

That good try they scored tonight... and guess which player almost messed it up...

 

[snout]

Well at least Chads claim to fame will be the worst goal kick miss in NRL history, Cant wait to see that replayed over and over for another 50 years.

And there's a whole career of games to kick it in.

Wins and losses with margins where it wouldn't have mattered.

But no. Save it for point loss.

 

[snout]

Just home from the game and watching the replay.
Fatty hit the nail on the head...he said halves who dont run are no threat.

That doesnt include running away from the defence or in circles

 

[bad boy bubby]

Hate?
No.
Is he bog average?
Yep.
Don't get on here and say "he only plays to what the coach tells him to"
Wake up.
The lad is a dud first grader who has got a lucky pay day.

There are two instances that highlight Chad for me.

1. He was hooked in the Semi Final against Canberra in 2016. If Flanno didn’t make that call we may not have won the comp.

2. In the GF - our opening try was scored by Gal picking the ball up from the back of the scrum pushing Chad out of the way and giving the ball to Benny Barba.

I would love to see Flanno out of the coaches box, down on the sideline & in his grasp, one of those golf ball retrievers, made with a hook on the end, for the extraction of a shit half-back.

Every time the clueless B52’s hairdo wearing nuffie places the football on the grass & runs away from the approaching defender, he’ll have to dodge the hook as well.

Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaathetic. When the commentators start rippin’ in, you know you’re faaarked.

(Oh yeah, BTW - I’m not wasting my energy hating on the kaarnt).

 

[Card Shark]

Think I heard Johns mention seggy for half back

No way thanks.

He is way to erratic & will effect the running of the whole team.

He’s playing too many minutes atm, id go back to bringing him on in the 2nd half but very early.

As for chad, he was ordinary & had totally lost confidence...that goal kick proves it.

Why is he out on the field when everyone has left after the warm-up? If he’s not ready to kick goals by then, he will never be!

bunch of salty eye merkins you faggotts

And yet you bag the f**k out of Holmes lol

Hahaha funny and true.

Interesting comment from Gal in the presser;

Unprompted and seemingly out of the blue he blurts out “Chaddy Townsend is under enormous pressure and we’re not listening to him at times”.

Yep
I thought he was talking about just last night.

Val should be kicking
Flano blew it there
Last week was the warning.

 

[MilkShark]

I should be president of this club.

Townsend is playing shit football that's obvious. He needs a run in the ISP to get his big head pulled in and a pretty abrupt reality check. Right now there are no consequences for his park football. Play shit get picked.
That intercept pass by Moylan last night was thrown because Townsend was 5 metres out of position in the play. The kicking to no one in general play, the dummy and get smashed because you are too slow, the bombs that no one has time to get under and that shocking miss of conversion I thought only Kimmorley could pull off. It's the same rubbish every week.
Don't hate the bloke after all its a game of football but get serious Flanno and give someone else a go because real fans are getting tired of this crap.

 

[Stake Removed]

Maybe the ole wrestling tactic for chad, you lose next match your head gets shaved, but i dont another match from him

 

[Frailty]

Aside from his kicking game and conversion attempt, my favourite part of his game last night was the amount of times he would dummy and try to run the ball despite not having any speed or agility.

I like Chad - just not on the field in 2018. He is an average halfback, but I don't hate him. But he has been awful.

 

[chewsta]

There isn't a set of clippers on the planet strong enough to mow that berber, Stake.

 

[chewsta]

Surely Flanno Junior is at the very least, as good as Chad? Kicks goals from anywhere too for bonus points.

 

[Frailty]

The issue is that being so late in the season it puts a lot of pressure on Flanagan and could risk his development.
On top of this, it's too late in the season to have time to gel leading into the finals.

Sharks will persist with Townsend for 2018, but unless his blitzes the rest of the season - 2019 he will surely be at the Jets.

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

I don't see the point in axing chad straight up now.

reason being, these games..we need to win em. so throwing kyle into the likes of marty kapow, turno, afn this coming week and then Melbourne the next week is fairly silly IMO.

if we lose to the storm its likely we wont make top 4.
so I think if that's sort of decided regardless if we win or lose in the last three maybe he could play against the knights or the bulldogs.
