Blake Austin is a better 5/8 than Anthony Milford & Mitchell Moses

Canberra fans frothing over their 5/8th in a purple patch... nope, haven't seen this before. Worked out so well last time, too.

His career spanned 2004-2014... which years were the good ones again? Back half of 2008 was it?

I dont think anyone's said he' not good. He's clearly VERY good.
But to keep him we were offering 1million dollars per year, he'd have to be f**king superman for us to sink those sort of dollars into him and still put a good enough team around him to be successful.

Milford is a rare talent who could easily be the best player in the world one day, but when you look at what we got in return for the money not spent on Milford, it's hard to look at it objectively and not see why Raiders might think as good as he might one day be, we're probably a better team without him and his million dollar price tag. We've basically got Austin-Sezer-Hodgson for the price of Milford.

That's rich coming from a bloke who's spent years blowing Jarrod Mullen.

What a player - if we amputated his left leg he might be somewhere around Campeses level. He'd still have more hair, though... so I guess I know who's winning. Something Austin certainly doesn't struggle with, either... f**k me - I didn't think we let junkies play the game tbh.

Nah we just make them an immortal of the game if they are from Newcastle.

that's not what I have been reading all season, all I have read is about how he's not a 5/8's arsehole and how slow he is

seems to be doing ok in a team that's leading the comp
