Team good = Townsend good
Team **** = Townsend ****

He's the halfback. It comes with the territory. Just ask Ben Hunt.

His inability to play an overlap is a travesty.

43% possession
much fewer meters made
49 to 33 missed tackles
14 errors to 10

Similarly bad play as last few weeks but against an actual good team

Our edge and wide defence let in way too many soft tries.

Everything else was like trying to stop water running downhill.

I’m thinking Bryson and Nene will be gone next week. Kennedy will go to Fullback. Ronaldo back on the wing. Dugan to Centres.

You can't defend that performance by Chad today.
Passes that didn't hit their mark
Kicking (a ****e kick BTW) with a 3 on 1 overlap when 18 down and chance to come back, which gave them a 7 tackle set which they ultimately scored from

Yep, tried it and it didn’t work. Dugan back to 3

What part of saying he was **** is defending him?

My bad.
I thought you were suggesting that the team played poorly, resulting in Chad playing poorly.

Chad did that all himself.

At least we got our worst game out of the way... low personnel. We get another shot at the end of the year when it counts. We need to look hard at their young 5/th ( like we did with Wade).He has two 5/ths before him. Move Johnson to half and bring the kid in.

Think it was more team played poorly, which sums it up. Every single player needs an honesty session in front of the entire group where they talk through their game today. Except maybe Talakai. He can tssk audibly from the back

the worse the team goes the worse Chad goes, he needs the team to go well to lift him up
Not many 7s could have looked good in that performance and those that could are a lot better players than Chad is (and on a lot more money to suit)
again, don't confuse me saying Chad isn't a top halfback with some kind of defense of him

doubt there has ever been a game we struggled across the park except Chad still went well (more likely to be the other way around)

Burton? like the sound of a Burton/Johnson pairing

Moylan can retire, get drinky and Burton (both can arguably play 1 and 6) play Burton at 6 and Drinkwater at 1
Might even still have a couple hundred k to play with

that's great Chad but you have to put them in their player threads or it doesn't count
