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

[Bobby DIGital]

What do you want this thread being posted in all the time. It gets bumped whenever the Raiders play either the Broncos or Tigers or one of the three has a bad game.

Broncos fans are so self-entitled that it's weird. They think it's my responsibility to bump this thread when it falls off the front page, and when Austin is out injured.

I was here the whole time, I never made a thread declaring someone to be better than another certain individual only to be proven wrong and chiming in when it best supported my argument (media releases etc), this thread has been a graveyard at times and Bobby has taken a hiatus on more than one occasion

But I was proven to be 100% right though, so what are you actually talking about?

Moses was the NRL.com 5/8 of the year. There really needs to be no further discussion. Mods may as well lock the thread.

Vic Mackey, I like you as a poster.

I get why they went Moses. He has driven the tigers into being competitive in the back half of the year but I reckon it should have been Maloney.

6. Mitch Moses (Wests Tigers)

Moses's incredible back end of the year for the Wests Tigers was the main reason the club stayed in finals contention until the closing stages of the regular season. Moses finished in the top four when it came to try assists (18 – equal with three others).

Notable mentions: Anthony Milford (Broncos), Corey Norman (Eels), Michael Morgan (Cowboys), Bryce Cartwright (Panthers)

No Austin or Maloney

 

[Walt Flanigan]

It’s only because the NRL team of the year already had 5 Raiders players in there ;-)

It probably is a toss-up between Moses and Maloney, but Moses was shining at the end of the year while Maloney wasn’t going so great.

To be fair, Austin hasn't been anything special this year. He hasn't been bad by any means, but he hasn't really done anything to make him dominate like he did in 2015. A lot of that is because the rest of the team are playing so well that he hasn't needed to carry the team on his back (ala Moses).

Milkford is more talented than Austin but Milkford is a cat who loves to dive and milk penalties,always pretends like he is about to die when someone tackles him,so despite being more talented i would take Austin because he isn't a cat.

Stellar performance from the milkman tonight...

 

[Tommy Smith]

He stumbles in every play the ball. Worse than Fifita.

He's so good he doesn't need that shit in his game.

 

[Pete Cash]

What is going on with milford. He just seems to make a lot of errors lately. He is obviously very talented but he is going through a bit of a slump.

It cant help that hunt isnt doing much.

Also the bronx pack is undersized

 

[Bobby DIGital]

Milfrog was awful again tonight. He always makes a lot of errors (most in the NRL last year), but he's making more than usual.

He's also one of the weakest defenders in the game right now.

Overrated.

He is not overrated.

He has been carrying a very painful knee injury for the past month so that may have contributed to the errors.

And he isn't that week. He pulled the Cowboys down all night and didn't let a try in.

3 errors... 11 tackles for 4 misses. Milford had a terrific game last night.

He flops like a fish out of water to try and get penalties though.
Slows the play of ball down significantly while eyeing off the ref for a penalty.

He seems angry that people have the audacity to tackle him.

Brent Tate syndrome?

Even with a Frankenstein hand, baustin delivered the goods.

Yep, a superb try and then at the end produced some of the greatest acting since Sir Lawrence Olivier tread the boards at the Globe.

I was so moved by his performance my ribs are actually bruised.
