Message: [QUOTE="Lockysillegitimatechild, post: 2885154, member: 8814"] He was the best player in the grand final & got us there at 5/8th. HIM PLAYING 5/8th IS NOT THE ISSUE (sorry for the yelling). This isn't a PlayStation game where you just switch players around. Milford played great at fullback for Canberra but give teams an off season to figure him out and he'd be just as effective as he is at 5/8th. Canberra also missed the top 8 by a far distance that year. Why? Because, just like Tedesco, it may create an amazing try and highlights reel having an running fullback but there is more to it then that. Defensive position, taking kicks both high and low, chiming in at the right time, vocal/organising the team structure in both attack and defence. Prior to the prelim we had the best attack in the opposition 20 and great line defence last year. These abilities of the team don't just vanish. Swapping and changing will ignite us for 2 or 3 games, then what? We change again when we lose, because we will eventually again. We just need a forward pack that will get quick play the balls and be aggresive (size is a bonus to this), a good run with injuries, an improvement in our mental toughness (bird may help with this), and a bit of a storm-like golden run with the nrl.... a lot to ask but that is where we are falling...
