Message: [QUOTE="Great white hope, post: 3133550, member: 9240"] I understand this point of view may be unpopular here but I do believe that some of the criticism of Milford is unjust. As a $1 million dollar player I too expect a lot more than we currently get but consider the following: 1.We are playing boring 1 out footy that doesn't get our halves involved and also means we get smashed up the middle and consistently lose the ruck. We need to play 2 and 3 wide to get away from gang tackles and to try to hit holes between halves and 2nd rowers. This also means the halves touch the ball most plays and are more involved and engaged. 2. When we do get the ball to a half it felt like in the knights game it was going to Croft 80% of the time. I want Milford to run more as well but he needs to get (or demand ) the ball more often. Think JT. 3. No players in movement so he gets smashed as there is no decoys therefore no confusion created to the defensive team. Compare this to the Roosters. Keary can run with freedom because he has always got another 3 options that are all threats. 4. On this theme his outside man is Darius. Enough said. 5. He is working hard in defence due to us giving up so much ball and field position.i know he misses a few but his first contract has improved a heap. There is just poor communication between Milford and Boyd. Note on this by other teams playing 2 and three wide our halves need to commit to a bunch more defensive workload which blunts the ability to impact on attack. [/QUOTE]
