Message: [QUOTE="Porthoz, post: 2626998, member: 2221"] [b]Re: Wayne Bennett related player movement discussion[/b] If we only had Hodges, Hoffman and Eden, I would of course concede because your points are valid, but... Unless you know of a contract clause saying that Milford is going to play 5/8, no coach should ever satisfy player's whims, and if him being at the back is the best option for the team, that's where he should play. He will have plenty of time to come through... like I don't know, Locky did! :wink: Imo, Milford 1 and Barba 6 is at this stage the best thing for the team, but the reverse wouldn't be a deal breaker either, provided Barba slims down a bit and is 100% fit. It comes down to this imo: - Barba is as good a 6 as Milford. - Milford is a better fullback than Barba. - Both are better fullbacks than Boyd. We need to look at the Nikorimas future, not present, although unless he suffers a bad injury, Jayden is much more than an unknown and you know it. Given Boyd's relationship with Wayne, it is highly unlikely he would lose a spot in the spine, which would leave only 2 spots for Jayden to come in and dispute with Hunt, Milford, Barba, Ash Taylor and his own brother. Hopefully he actually becomes a gun hooker, but he is and has always been primarily a fullback/halve. [/QUOTE]
