Message: [QUOTE="Ari Gold, post: 2689732, member: 1917"] Just because Milford was signed with Hook's intent to play him at five eight it does not mean he had to play there. That's like saying Josh Hoffman had to be our fullback because we re-signed him as a fullback. It's another "plainly silly statement". There are plenty of valid reasons why Milford should be our five eight, but because we signed him to be just isn't one of them. As for not needing a fullback, Kahu has also been immensely impressive when deputising this year. People love to talk about our winning record this year as to why Taylor shouldn't be fitted in. And that's a perfectly correct point of view. Yet they somehow forget that most of those wins were also without Boyd. Can hardly say we are having a winning record and then discount the frankly outstanding performances of Kahu in that position. Anyway, given what's happened so far logic always dictated that Taylor would leave. It's not a mistake to let him leave now. The mistake IMO was signing Boyd and playing Milford at five eight. Hopefully I'm wrong and it works out really well for us. But I don't pay any attention to the fact we've done well so far. This is a monumentally important decision that will be measured in premierships, not good starts to the season. [/QUOTE]
