Cleeland's still young, I think it's fair for the more experienced Townsend to have first crack in first grade. The onus is on the Cleeland to consistently outperform Townsend, if he does once the season's in and Flanno doesn't select the best halfback option, THEN be upset... A good pre-season doesn't (and shouldn't) gift you an NRL jumper.
They are the same age. Chad has played consistent NRL footy for a while now whilst Cleeland is a 24 year old rookie.
Hopefully the reports are true, as I dont think we will threaten the comp with Chad in the 7, but Todd Murphy was the runner up player of the year in the Q Cup and he couldn't shift Robson out of the team.
