I didnt agree with what happened about being taken off but I respect Flanno and I respect the decision he had to make.At the time, I was like, whats going on?Im just thankful my boys supported me. Throughout the last couple of weeks, Ive had outstanding support from not only the players and coaching staff but past players have reached out.After that, it was about moving on. You have to take it as a man. Its a mans game. Sometimes, things dont go your way. Its about how you respond. Thats all I focused in on.Townsend said he focused on the form he had shown through much of 20166 in the lead-up to the clash with the Cowboys.ddddddddddddI thought about the things Id done this year, he said.My preparation and work ethic hasnt changed. Ive tried to focus in on that. It was about backing myself, knowing that Ive put in the work and the time to put in a good performance. Ive had plenty of support from the boys in the locker room and coaching staff.Townsend will head into Sunday weeks grand final full of confidence.Im very pleased I could put in a performance I know I can do.For me, it was about getting back to basics. Im not only happy how Ive responded, its the greatest bunch of boys. It was about believing about myself and what Ive done. I backed myself and Ive done that since day one.Townsends halves partner James Maloney never doubted he would bounce back.I dont know if it was a tough period. He had one game that wasnt perfect; I dont think it was as terrible as everyone was saying, Maloney said.We knew, hes been outstanding for us all year so I had every faith he was going to come back and do the job. Hes very important to this side and, no doubt, hes got another big 80 in him. ' ' '
