Message: [QUOTE="Dee, post: 3077116, member: 2254"] I see what you're saying. Townsend definitely isn't the greatest playmaker going around but he would offer us a lot of things we need. A more than decent kicking game. From what I've seen, he's got a decent long kicking game and short kicking game. His long kicks are pretty accurate and find the green alot of the time. His kick chase is great also. Game management skills like organising our attack, know what plays on and when, getting good ball to our rampaging pack, being vocal during games yelling at players to run here, run at that hole, be here, go there etc. Leadership qualities. He's won a premiership and knows what it takes to get it done as a half. We'd know exactly what we're getting from him, he's not an untested rookie. Defense. Now he's not the best defender but I'm sure he's better than turpin at 7 and whoever else we've put in there. As for 40/20s, we don't need him kicking those. Milf can do those as he's pretty good at them. What's good about having a guy like Townsend at #7 is it mixes up our kicking game. Milf won't be targeted as much as we've got Townsend to kick also. It won't be as easy for the defense to get at who's kicking on the 5th tackle. We can play smarter rather than just give it to Milf. We need to grow some rugby league smarts and play with some brains. There's not many quality halves on the market but Townsend is the player I'd be enquiring about if I was Seibold. Not sure how old Townsend is but I'm sure he's got at least another 5 years in the game. Trust me, he'd be perfect for a guy like Milf too. Milf needs to be freed up. He doesn't thrive when he's the sole playmaker and getting targeted every game. I'm hoping a half like Townsend can bring back the Milf from 2015. [/QUOTE]
