Message: [QUOTE="GCBRONCO, post: 2890432, member: 1808"] I don't subscribe to the view that in order to be a successful playmaker at the club you need to be a superstar. Go back to 2006 and look at the contribution Shane Perry made to the side by complimenting Lockyer without negatively impacting on the champion 5/8th's brilliance. Solid contributions as a playmaking and a kicking game to compliment your go to man takes pressure off that player to be more selective and creative in their attacking input. IMO Milford would benefit hugely from having such a player to handle those duties. I was impressed with how Kodi handled the challenge when he was playing halfback in 2017, showed good attitude and enthusiasm, loved his willingness to attack the line and showed a willingness to use his backrowers. That being said my concern for our halves is that both Milford and Nikorima are very similar in style but don't really compliment each other in key areas that are of concern. Milford is on the big bucks so the expectation burden will largely be on him to deliver the goods, that being said Kodi has to stake his claim in 2018 as it's pretty clear from the club demonstrating the desire to get Taylor back to the club that they don't want to put all their eggs in one basket. I'm not expecting him to be a superstar, I want to see improvement in the areas such as his kicking game that are of concern. He will need to give them a reason to keep him there otherwise the club will look elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
