[@mikeconlan2458]

Hey Chad, love the vlog! It’s really great getting to see an insight into your playing/preparation routine. Just wondering, what is your favourite combination with another player that you’re looking forward to in the upcoming season?

[@ChadTownsend10]

Absolutely! I think definitely with other spine members. We talk a lot of footy and hang out a lot. Love those guys.

[@anthonychau8734]

Love you work Chad - Would love to see/know any programs we can do whether that be gym or at the park to work on acceleration/sprinting and even agility. Keep up the good work man

[@hodgsonsautorepairs6503]

[@ChadTownsend10]

Parking is still getting built at Moore park

[@khalida5673]

Where was the best club you’ve been at

[@khalida5673]

Would you ever end up going to the bulldogs

[@krystlemcdonald4303]

Would your lovely wife share her Banana Muffin recipe please? let her know as well thank you for being in the vlogs and sharing your life as well. Cant imagine its easy. Loved hearing the kids when you got home.

[@ChadTownsend10]

[@ChadTownsend10]

Thanks Greg

[@GeorgiosSportWorld]

Chad your my favourite player everrrrrrrrrrrr

[@ChadTownsend10]

Thanks for the love

[@2_pelicans]

Are you going to stick to living in the shire and commute everyday? How do away games but still in Sydney work? Do you all make your own way there?

[@ChadTownsend10]

Yeah shire is home for me. Usually we all get a bus together to away games from our facility.

[@hollyalessi1]

How’s it feel to be back in the shire and Sydney in general. Is the family all settled now?

[@ChadTownsend10]

Loving it mate. Home is where the heart is. Very happy

[@ryanrouvray5843]

Hey mate, did you always want leave Townsville to move back down south or is it just how it planned out.

[@ChadTownsend10]

Yes mate it was always our preference to move back home to Sydney. We had a great time up there but it was time for us to go home!

[@ryanrouvray5843]

Good luck with the roosters for 2025, I loved watching you and Tommy D at Cowboys .

[@roblewis6498]

Not to you standard, but i coach a young Uni team. Would love to see what you guys do to keep training on point but also relevant and most of all interesting...

[@ChadTownsend10]

It’s all about variety and keeping the players engaged. It’s not just about getting them fit, it’s about making sure they’re enjoying the process as well.

[@j_mck728]

When doing the yoyo fitness test, does your coach expect you guys to reach a certain level, or is it more a test to see where others are at , and what trainers can give to improve on their own fitness? Thankyou ..

[@ChadTownsend10]

Yeah there is expectations on certain positions to get certain scores

[@j_mck728]

@ thankyou for taking the time to reply to my comment all the best for an injury free season ( up the doggies 😅)

[@peterrowan2416]

At least it will seem like a home game when you play Cronulla.

[@ChadTownsend10]

One of my favourite grounds. Grew up watching games on the hill

[@Brian_Tonei_8]

What is it like seeing day to day Tedesco, Radley, Lindsay, Angus train with you & train next to you?

[@ChadTownsend10]

It’s great, I have played against them for a long time so it’s cool to be on the same team 🙌🏻

[@danielwheeler7552]

As a life long rooster fan my question is players jump from club to club ( yes I know it’s a business) but what can roosters fans expect from u as a veteran nrl player to help us go all the way ! Thanks

[@ChadTownsend10]

I think someone who always shows up and has a go as well as bringing my experience on and off the field 😀

[@p0k3r86]

How good is Kirra ❤

[@ChadTownsend10]

Best ever!!!

[@krisharn56]

chad we have to work hard if we want to make it to the finals this year

[@ChadTownsend10]

Correct! We are dw about that

[@Kaikai_313]

Hey Chad, miss yah in the Cowboys gear. Who edits your vlogs? Or do you do it yourself?

[@ChadTownsend10]

Thank you! I do some and I outsource some 🙌🏻

[@joelmcmahon8431]

During pre season do you treat yourself to any goodies eg gelato , alcohol or is that strictly a no from the perspective of nrl fitness standards

[@ChadTownsend10]

On the weekend I will get some takeaway and maybe some ice cream but I try to steer clear of alcohol while our training demands are so high. It’s not great for your recovery and sleep

[@Mannychettzzz]

Did you guys do the four laps of the footy field in 5 minutes as a test or just the yoyo. What is the hardest fitness test you’ve ever done?

[@ChadTownsend10]

Yoyo is up there and bronco as well

[@krisharn56]

Chad i got a good intro for the start of the vlogs you should do go the mighty roosters

[@ChadTownsend10]

Send it through

[@ryanscott4617]

Hey Chad I’m interested to know what rehab facilities the roosters provide for like soreness or even injuries. Things like hyperbaric chambers etc.

[@ChadTownsend10]

We have 2 rooms for recovery dry and wet as well as sauna

[@SupremeGaming142]

Hi Chad Where did you get the sunglasses from ? They look amazing 🤩

[@ChadTownsend10]

Which ones? The reflectors are Oakley

[@domnelson5063]

Are you on goalkicking duties this year dude?

[@ChadTownsend10]

Maybe lol

[@yeaman67]

What did you get for your yoyo buddy?

[@ChadTownsend10]

Secret lol

[@yeaman67]

@ naw 🥲 tell jonesy to keep his pre training speeches short n sharp 😂

[@krisharn56]

Chad i feel like i am your biggest nrl fan

[@ChadTownsend10]

Much love

[@joshuahinds5136]

Who’s your halves partner?

[@Slfitt]

Brother’ what was the highest yo-yo test score on the day ??

[@ChadTownsend10]

It was in the 20’s

[@danielmoses4422]

How do Cowboys and Roosters pre seasons compare?

[@ChadTownsend10]

They’re both extremely hard.

[@z33m4n9]

What advice would you give to young aspiring Rugby League players who are working really hard to make it to the NRL? I really want to make it to the NRL.

[@ChadTownsend10]

Train hard, make sacrifices, become obsessed

[@krisharn56]

Chad what is something that you want to achieve this season

[@ChadTownsend10]

Win 😀

[@nathandallas6801]

How are you enjoying your time at the roosters so far

[@ChadTownsend10]

Loving it mate! Really enjoying everything about the club!

[@xKhaos67]

Are any of the Roosters boys playing partners for your off-field golf hobby?

[@ChadTownsend10]

We haven’t had a chance yet but we will!

[@sharky1154]

Ever consider coming back to Cronulla, Chad??
