Maybe he just can't stand that horrid nickname?
He's reminding me more and more each year of Jarred Hayne.Milford is the perfect example of a player with a fuckton of talent who has never had to put in the true hard work to be good. But talent still only gets you so far at the highest level and he just doesn't know how (or isn't willing) to put in the work to go to another level. Unlike say Cronk, who wasn't naturally talented but worked his arse off to become great. I'd rather a less naturally-talented team of hard-workers than a lazy / unsure-how-to-work-hard group every day of the week.

Keary is a good example of a talented player who could’ve coasted along as a middling half, but worked really hard and is now pretty much the best player in the comp. If Milford put in half the work that he did he’d be just as good.

To be fair, Keary had good halves partners that helped him learn and develop. Milfords halves partners have been Hunt, Nikorima, Boyd, Turpin, Dearden and Croft. That's a huge yikes.
Ahhh, back when there was something to play for......
Not dropping Croft makes him look worse but.Seibold won't drop Croft any time soon. He was the head cheerleader in recruiting Croft. If he drops Croft, it'll make him look bad.
I didn’t realise Milford was in the team 15 years ago when we actually got to play day games
