But still.
Milford grew up as a Broncos supporter.
Idealised Darren Lockyer.
Now he has a chance to wear Lockyer's number 6 jersey full-time, be back in his home town and be back with his family.
What would you do?
Family is still a massive driver for these Polynesian kids. And if these number are true (which I doubt).. I still think $600k and being with his family is a good deal. Having his dad and family be able to attend every home game is something that would have a significant influence.
Not to...
Check out his Instagram. Posted a photo of his Mrs, saying "always got you, missing you" in which she replied " love you, miss you, not long till your home babe"...
Milford's girlfriend (who lives in Brisbane) has already been saying how she can't wait for him to "come home" after the World Cup.
He's gooooooooooooooonnnnneeee..
The Broncos will not come close to that $1M a season offer.
Just because the Raiders Board is filled with irrational amateurs, doesn't mean the Broncos is too.
DCE would be a much safer bet for that kind of money.
The Raiders should have just admitted defeat a long time ago.. Seeing what was once a successful and proud club, be on their knees pleading in desperation with a 19y/o kid is just sad.
If anything, this article strengthens the case that he will be at the Bronx in 2014. For a lot less than $1M...
The truth is, that if the Raiders hadn't put in the release clause before he re-signed, Milford would already be playing for the Broncos. He only stayed with the Raiders because he had the security of the clause, knowing his homesickness and fathers health issues were concerning..
Do we...
We have our best talent in the qld cup in the likes of Kemp, Berryman, Bond, Hala, Capewell etc while blokes like Wallace, Reed and Dodds do nothing!!!
I hope we sign Dugan.. He will come good on the attitude and injuries. He would start at the broncos with the notion he is on his final...
We need some speed.. We need to sign Dugan now that Norman is out the door.
Hook never seems to care or make changes.
i would like to hear him criticise the players and refs when they're to blame.. Look at Hasler with the Bulldogs last year.. Abused the refs, paid the $10k fine then didn't...
