Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3047960, member: 9052"] I'm skeptical as to whether this will actually take place... and I'm not really sure what they hope to achieve. If Milf is starting at 1 he'll be coming straight up against Pearce and you can bet every kick will be a floating bomb... not the best way to start at fullback when you haven't played there for 4-5yr now?? I'm also not sure how effective Milf will be on kick returns. He was devastating for Canberra, but does he still have the speed to worry defensive lines... not to mention line breaking kick returns aren't really a common occurrence nowadays. Turbo got one last week, but I can't recall them happening too often nowadays... so there's a good chance Milf would just dump it off to the closest winger to return or risk being rag dolled. There's also a worry that Milf will need to do even more work now... playing fullback whilst also being the main offensive threat, and main kicker long and short. Also our sweep play hasn't been all that effective in recent times so getting Milf in space as the third receiver may not happen all that much. On the plus side Milf would definitely be seen popping up on both sides of the ruck and will potentially sniff around the forwards for offloads.. but realistically why isn't he doing that from first receiver anyway??? He may have the 6 on his back, but for all intents and purposes he's our halfback. He should be positioned as first receiver all the way up the field and for tackles 1-4 he should be looking for offloads (I mean what else is he doing for on hit up sets on our own 30m line).
