Message: [QUOTE="Alec, post: 3017321, member: 1795"] The sad thing is that Nikorima, Milford and Boyd are all pretty much modern fullbacks and we are trying to fit them all into the spine, the same way we are trying to fit 4 or 5 second rowers into the top 17. No one is an organiser, but with the split halves approach, you kinda even need 2 of them, one for each side. I have no idea what made Milford work in 2015, but I do know he certainly wasn't playing as a modern half. I think he was more like an extra fullback in attack even back then, being more of a support player. He just clearly doesn't have the attributes to be the main man of the side. At this stage, and it might sound controversial, but I don't think I'd be looking to retain him if he asks for anything near his current salary. I don't think McCullough is any good, but Milford's problems go beyond him. He might be a 5/8th, but only a 5/8th before the split halves system came into place (which is more like a fullback these days). [/QUOTE]
