Message: [QUOTE="theshed, post: 2825532, member: 2290"] I think he is value for money. Within 2 years Thurston and Cronk will be gone and Maloney will be winding down. Milford will still be shy of 25, and at his current trajectory he will be a top 3 half. He is a very good 5/8th already. Behind only Foran, and Maloney in my eyes. He drops further down the list if you compare him to halfbacks as well. 900k is the right amount of money for him. And as I said, he is already better value for money in the halves than he is at fullback. Boyd is a far better fullback in every aspect except running so moving him doesn't make sense. Not to mention that he is also worth around the 900k mark which is a waste at centre. Bird, in a short period of time, can become a very good 5/8th, fullback, or lock. Though I'd prefer him at lock with another half to partner Milf. I don't disagree with you on prop situation though, we do need a bigger metre making prop long term. If we have real props he won't need to do as much grunt work but he's a great ball runner and I have no worry about him making metres. Edit: and all that being said, we have no idea what our attacking set up will be for next year. Do we play a left side half and a right side half, do we have one dominate half who sticks to the middle third and two five eights a la the way the cowboys use Coote. Do we try and do a better version of the dogs with forwards taking over a lot of first receiver responsibilities. Depending on that it's too hard to say how Bird should be used. [/QUOTE]
