I Hate Chad Townsend Club

Flanno said his son would get a run at origin time that didnt ha[pen, it has to happen now.

Or just maybe all the pressure put on Chad will see him exceed, but i always remember the finals vs Raiders if Flanno didnt hook him, we would still be virgins

Unfortunately I don't think it's going to happen this year Stake.

Kyle is becoming a problem, he was supposed to improve , become that star. He has not and looks average at best. Chad has to keep going and pull out of the slump he is in, tho pretty solid week to week if we are to do anything in the finals. Kyle should replace Moylan , that might work.

From what I’ve seen of Kyle open age footy has been a big step that he hasn’t really made.

I like chad as a footballer he is dependable and he is part of the furniture etc etc.
But the bloke has become a robot. Over analyses each play. Doesn’t play what’s in front.

The sideways drift the past few weeks has become a joke

He actually runs away from the defence.
Sideways or backwards in a circle.

Not saying hes scared - he just believes hes being elusive.
Thats why his game is shit. Because all good halves run at the line.

Chads who we thought he was bog average, seems to be commanding too much ball inside the 20, seems different with wade in the team.

Reminding me of Robson without the trysavers, merkins pathetic at this time just try’s to run that same play... drift across two decoys into a block play religiously never quite nails the last pass it’s getting sad to watch the only time we scored off it was when the touchie put his flag up.

You gotta give it to Flanno for having the patience not to chuck his son into first grade for the sake of having the same blood. A lot of fathers would do so without much thought.

Bog average or not I'd like to see something different at halfback. He probably plays the same as Chad but it's worth a try in my opinion.

Has flanno got any other kids?
Does his brother play?
What age is the old man?
How many Flannos does it take to win a title?

I think it’s a bit late to experiment.

Flanno needs to resurrect Chad...somehow.

It might be as simple as having Wade Graham in the team & also taking the goalkicking off him.

I think Flanno will strip it from him, it’s a way of dropping him without dropping him.

It's not mate, he's very ordinary atm.
That's a shame.

Yeah it is probably too late to throw him in. I just wish he got a game earlier in the season for experience's sake. Might be a problem if one of our halves goes down before the finals.

Sharks using chad to advertise the game against manly. Are they trolling us?
No, he has been the pin up boy all year and probably works in the Sharks social media team. This is the conundrum. The club wants Chad playing for them for life, no matter how ordinary he is. Will the coach have the final say???... because the club is setting themselves up for a massive fail if he is dropped but is the face/ hair of the club

Throw the kid in. I bet he plays better than expected with a higher quality group of players around him. Could we really go backwards? Chad is poo.

Kyle looked very ordinary in the reserve grade rep side.
Not as bad as the other NSW half though

Not that I'm claiming Kyle will be anything like him, but everybody says that Nathan Clearly was nothing special in Under 20's and Reserve Grade until he went to Firsts.

Well what's the likely scenario if Chad gets a serious injury? They are farrrked and the only option would be Segyaro at 7 and younger Brailey off bench
