We need Chad to step up and play 7 next year. Wade is definetley not a 7.

Lol a perfect world team and you still find room to slot graham in.
Maybe as he gets older but he'll need a few more years to find his feet I think.
He runs the ball ok and defends well but he doesn't seem to do the important half back things like organise plays, PASS and good short kicking game. He needs to work on these elements and then maybe he will be a good number 7 for us. He's still young.
God i wish we had Kept Noddy at the club. He could of taught and worked with Graham so much.
But in saying that Graham is still playing good footy and was the best on the park last week. Keep him in the side. His long kicks are normally alot better then today.
Our Forwards lost us the game today not Graham

there is no way chad is firstgrade material. my pe teacher used to be the trainer for the toyota cup (quit as of 2011) and he said that chad is just not up to first grade standard and he just doesnt hae what it takes to be a good hafback. sorry guys but i tend to agree with him and i just dont see him doing it for us. cant believe some of you guys want him. id rather tim smith tbh

His grubber straight to Mullen led to 2 back to back trys against us but I'm not suggesting he lost the game for us directly as that's too simplistic. However if we had a 7 with a decent short kicking game capable of repeat sets ect we probabaly would have won that game even with our forwards not being at their best.
I would prefer Baz was still around for coaching halfs over Brett "can't remember your name" Kimmorly! Noddy is so last decade lol.
Bwhahaha!
I think it says something about PE teachers and anger management haha

Wade's kicking was again off today. His options on the 5th tackle and also inside the 20 metre line were very poor again today. The rest of his game is fine, but the kicking is the most important and he needs to pick that up.

Haha you guys are incredible. Townsend had a shocker today.
Graham is young and we need to put faith in him. Had a great game last week and a poor one today. That is going to happen with young halves. Suck it up guys.

I'm not disputing the fact that Chad was crap today. But I've seen much more top notch halfback games from Chad then I have from Wade. We should stick with Wade in the halves until the end of the year. Then move him to lock and Chad into the #7 to start next year.
remember when Graham was at the Panthers and he couldn't cut it as a five eighth. they all said he was better suited in a lock position. well why the **** are we putting our faith in him as a HALF BACK!?? the bloke who is in charge of guiding the entire team around the field. why don't we just make him captain/coach while we're at it? if we put our faith him surely he'll come good

I have watched almost every televised NYC game over the last three years.
I think Townsend is really good in half the games and not so good in the other half, particularly his kicking game.
He is one for the future, but I think he would need at least a year at NSW Cup level before the NRL.
Also, I don't see Graham playing in the forwards in the NRL for maybe another year.
We need to stick with what we have.
:Yes:
I agree 100%. We just have to be patient. The results will come as long as the boys are all kept in the loop and we don't force anything. The 2013 Premiership isn't won in 2011, but it could be lost.
At least we're talking about guys we've got at the Club rather than pipe dreams for once.

There was even a lot of people on here who couldn't see the IT in AK last year. It also appears that there are a lot who can't see it in Chad either.

I could see it in AK last year. I can see it in Chad. Chad just isn't physically or mentally ready for the big time in my opinion, and also is the kind of player that will benefit from proper development rather than being thrown into first grade.
