I'm sorry but Milford still isn't a half. He's a runner. His half play consists of an overused inside ball and a poor kicking game.

He made a good run tonight but lets not let it distract from the fact that he's not doing what he needs to in the position he's in.

He's improving. He stepped things up in the Cows game and was creating things for others. Threw a sublime pass to Glenn which lead to the Parker try. Had good support play tonight. He's a work in progress and I'm more then happy with where he's at and his role in the team.

wouldn't say milf had a blinder, he was good & getting better. would like to see him attacking from fb in the opposition half, especially with no hodges.

tits need to learn how to finish & have a decent fb that doesn't kill their attacking plays. even DCE will have a hard time without stewart always in support. hopefully henry can actually use his brain & at least move mead to fb.

Yeh his support play was good tonight I thought and it resulted in 2 tries, like Lockyer said though that's just the fullback coming out in him though. I thought he really aimed up in defence which is a good sign of his attitude but he still falls short in all the areas that you need from a a half and that has to be concerning, we're 5 rounds in now.

This. The stuff he was doing well tonight was all classic fullback play. To be honest I think the error was signing Boyd not Milford. They could have used Boyd's money to invest in a natural half that would offer a lot more there than Milford allowing him to play at the back. But hey, just an observation. I'm not the coach.

Wayne seems to be going with less conservative penalty goals so far this year. Noticed a few times with a penalty in the Titans 20 they played on.

So he only has an inside ball? Must have missed short outside pass to put Glenn through against the Cowboys, the cut out pass that despite being ruled so wasn't forward for Vidot tonight..... Milford is getter better with each game, his partnership with Hunt is getting better, his defense has been good. Alot of the criticism is just hate.

On the game, our defense has been great and the fact we kept repeatedly repelling them.set after set on our line is good to.see. Our attack is getting more dangerous with each game. It's a shame Nikorima got concussed he looked dangerous when he was on.

Why wasn't Bird taken off? Or did the officials realise it was a dive just to get a penalty, and then to award one with zero footage showing a high tackle, WTF.

when players lay down like Bird did as if he'd just been battered in the side of the head by a sledge hammer, then they should just assume the player is concussed and get him off

it's amazing how quickly they recover, if the officials did something about it maybe they'll stop the acting

We're winning ugly while getting better, at this early stage and with Boyd, Hodges, Kahu and Blair to return in the coming month we are looking good for atleast top 8.
