The Chad

[Surely]

Not kidding.
Holmes is not doing what he does best...that's pretty obvious.

Such as running the ball back hard, catching the high balls ?

He ran 200m tonight and was pretty good cleaning up at the back.

Disagree wirh what?

We weren't good enough but we weren't disgraced & we are still the premiers & probably syoll im the top 4

 

[Defer to the coifed]

What does that even mean?

ya dont have to miss tackles to be caught out in defence, ya Dyck You ssaid it. 7 line breaks, holmes cleaned up one.

Holmes was fine. Far out he got hurrell 1 on 1 and caught every kick thrown at him.

He is a tackle / line breaker & try scorer...what are those stats this year?

Believe it or not Im not bagging Holmes. Im bagging dykhead who reckons that Chad got caught out in defense, when he didn't, Holmes was just a good analogy.

If you don't reckon chad gets caught out in defence than you're a moron or blind. His babysitter didn't play tonight and it really showed.

 

[Defer to the coifed]

oh so now your bagging him because the edge player takes on his defensive work?

There you go read the stats

You just don't get it to do you.

Halves often have babysitters.

It would definitely affect his game, like it would for any other half.

Why were many calling for Townsend's retention last week after a great game...but this week...

I'm not talking the NRL, I'm talking 1 player on 3 stats. Can't be bothered finding & comparing him.

I'm suggesting he's not breaking tackles or the line & I know he's scoring not many tries.

Can you seriously say he's setting the world on fire like we know he can??

it didnt affect his game. Our edge back rower was a bit rusty, thats how the try occurred. Other than that, Chad a pretty decent game. His game management was first rate.

Holmes is a work in progress at fullback. He needs to get a lot more involved in attack. He is a hole runner and not as creative with ball in hand like barba was.

I'd take barba back in a second and throw Holmes back on the wing.

But Holmes played ok tonight.

 

[Card Shark]

He did play ok..but to single Townsend out, or any other player, is unfair.

They were ALL below their best, imo.

 

[toomuchsoup]

The ball was right in front of him. His lack of ergency after it got away from him was really poor form.

If you wanna see what real lack of urgency is. Go watch the knights.
