Message: [QUOTE="Super Freak, post: 2833445, member: 8536"] His defence wouldn't be an issue. JT is actually a worse defender than Milford. His tackle effectiveness for the most part is considerably worse. But it's not an issue when he plays for QLD, because he is playing in a very strong defensive team that are able to cover for any weaknesses in the line. The same thing will happen here. We've had quite a few players in the squad that are pretty average defenders at club level, but aren't exposed in the Origin arena. It's the same with the errors. I'm not sure how people could think Norman would possibly go any better. He is in good form, not as good as he was at the start of the season, but Norman is not one that likes to play second fiddle. He wants to be controlling things, which he won't be in the QLD side. He doesn't thrive when he isn't playing the way he wants to. Milford is much more suited to the role which will be required from the halves partner that plays. His other deficiencies such as kicking and game management wouldn't be an issue while Cronk and Smith are in the side. If Milford plays, you wouldn't need to worry about him. His job will be simple, just run the ball and play what's in front of him which is exactly when he thrives. We would certainly benefit from Milford being in the QLD side. [/QUOTE]
