[OFFICIAL] Anthony Milford to Broncos

[Rabbir]

The only bad thing about not getting Milford is Barba or Hoffman might go into the halves.

Isn't this the same guy who couldn't distinguish between QLD memberships and ticket prices for origin?

Along with everyone else who couldn't tell the difference and didn't wait for the QRL. Not a single person didn't agree with him until I said wait till Tuesday.

Im assuming you mean on top of missing out on a future superstar?

 

[1910]

My bad it just seemed ludicrous.

Apologies jonno I shouldn't have gone off before knowing.

So if this is true, obviously it was all about money and what the hell is going on if we can't top a 150k upgrade?

The story that Westlake has used is from the weekend and the awards night, Milford will take an upgrade to see out his deal at Canberra and not seek a release. But come November 1 it came be game on again for 2015.

He isn't off contract, Broncos might be able to match a $150 000 upgrade but they aren't in a position to do it for 2014.

How many games has he played at 5/8th again?

So you're saying Milford to Broncos is definitely not happening in 2014?

 

[Broncoman]

Dang it on the bright side the saga is now over and we can stop stressing about it.

I don't know who the everyone is your referring to but I didn't believe it and when hes talking about wigs and stickers being included its not a steep leap to conclude its a membership, something I suspect he knew.

Well, that, and also that Milford is one of the most talented players coming through.

Yep hopefully both teams can now move on with definite plans for 2014. What I'm curious about is if that upgrade is also an extension, be mad to upgrade someone who you already had under contract if it didn't secure them long term.

How is that relevant to my statement? He will be a future superstar. End of

 

[bb_gun]

I'm a bit bummed TBH as I was pretty confident of signing him for next year, oh well, now we can spend an entire off-season speculating and debating on who'll partner Hunt in the halves next year....

...fun.

Hopefully it isn't. Please keep developing him as a half for just one more year.

If he played fullback for the next 10 years possible. At 5/8th we just don't know.

 

[Russell Coight]

So what happened to sitting a year out if he didnt get a release? Really starting to doubt the legitimacy of it all being about his sick father.

Mate it's not legitimate. If it was he would be in brisbane permanently regardless. I mean if 150k changes his mind there are serious issues with his story

It ain't over till the fat lady sings.

Papalli's comments in the Australian have put a dampener on things though.

Regardless of how it falls, remember - easy come easy go.

..and you'd only need to retract 311 vile comments about the integrity of the Broncos and its management, and, hopefully, never post on BHQ again.
