Sam Obst Mk 2!!
In all seriousness he shouldn't have even been in this position. Not for this match anyway, with so much external pressure, the coaches grudge match and the Kodi Nikorima thing. FFS just wait until you play the Titans or something before you blood an 18 year old halfbackSolid debut. Performed well in defence & showed determination in chasing Reynolds after the intercept. He’s been let down by a host of his teammates but can be proud of his efforts.

Milford's problem is he's too scared to run the ball because none of those half breaks he used to get convert into line breaks anymore.Not with one of the worst 5/8's in the game next to him.
To be fair to him we haven't had a great #7 in a very long time but I get what you're saying, he's playing as a key half in a big club, a lot to be expected against a tear away pack who will be running at him all night

He is 18. He made his debut in an away game for a spoon contender against the team currently in 1st. Just about the worst conditions possible. He wasn't spectacular but he also wasn't out of his depth. He has a chance at coming good.

Still, at least he's in the NRL unlike Austin.
You mean the inevitable Man of Steel for 2019?
Wighton > Milford as a 5/8 now tbh.
