I don't get the hype
His highlights look like every other junior "star" that's come through.
Can't wait for him to run the ball, get tackled and Joey say "there was a lot of Lockyer about that run"
Is he sporting a toupee?I don't get the hype

He only needs to be as good as Shane Perry.
We don't need a player who can make the highlight reels, we need a guy who can kick long, organize the team and put his body on the line in defense, Milford will make many of highlight reels if he can do that
Got a tough assignment first up. I'm sure one S. Burgess will be testing his shoulders all night.
This is true and the way RL is.
I hate it. It is bad sport.
Highly skilled young halves are like hens teeth and it stinks that they have to be Cleary types (eg big enough to be able to tackle well) to make it to the top, never mind they don't have much skill or entertainment value.
I would allow halves and hookers to be subbed out of the game in defence so that this targeting does not happen. Big men running at little men is piss weak.
Imagine the skill level of halves if skill is what rose to the top rather than all rounder'ness.

No way... Mismatches are what Rugby League is all about.
Big guys isolating small guys and trying to run over the top of them. Little guys trying to isolate tired big guys and go round them.
That is the essence of Rugby League.
