Message: [QUOTE="BronxosLover, post: 3230166, member: 10401"] The problem is he is the type of player who plays best on unstructured footy. As much as people like to think it that is not a halves job, yes they run, can make slick tricky passes and whatnot but they are not expected to play how Milford naturally does. If that were to happen 1. There would be no structure- no control, discipline & organisation. That’s not the way he thrives. I don’t know how people can’t work it out. With all the talent in the team, it is pivotal that they get a firm marshalled half-one to head the team in an affirmative direction. Yes Croft can help to an extent but he is also a natural free flowing type of player. He’s got aspects of a controlled, smart player and is also scintillating & dangerous with raw talent. It’s a heap of pressure to rely on him for though and having too many options affects his instinct to come up with the right call which is what makes him such a threat and a talented playmaker. They just need playmakers to settle things down, apply repeat pressure and let the natural ability of the players around (which are aplenty) to assert their attacking influence whilst guiding them in a disciplined direction. Give Tommy Dearden a crack at half, for a young player he had an impressive amount of maturity and level-headedness (sure there are some things he could work on as with all players, but he’s the type who’ll take it on board and run with it) Give Croft the #6 and Milf a go at fullback where he can be so elusive & surround him with back-up players. They got one of the fastest squads, I’m sure there will be a runner or two lurking up in support. Also some high-flying guys who can give Milf a hand under those big kicks. From what I’ve seen Milf is a great defensive fullback, having the skill of reading the play (which makes it seem like he could be suitable as playmaker), he’s 99% of the time in the right spot. I’ve been saying this for years and years 😔🤦‍♀️. Work on their goal line D, communicate!! Other than that I see positive signs all round, a heap of young guns- older familiar heads giving them a run for their money and they don’t lack determination & effort!! That’s for sure! [/QUOTE]
