Apparently Milf had a blinder for Samoa?

I definitely wouldn't call it a blinder. He was OK. He broke through the line twice (I think), and lost the ball both times. Ended up with a total of 3 errors. His ball playing didn't really trouble PNG either, most of their tries just came through the middle, coming off big runs from their middle forwards (which pretty much won the game for them). PNG pretty much only had QLD Cup players too.

A few choice kicks, looked threatening. A little bit better than ok, but not a blinder.
 
Is there a half in the game who spills the ball or throws it into the ground as much as Milford?
 
After watching the Samoa vs PNG game my fears that Issako at fullback will equal a few dropped high balls a game are no better. l have no interest in pointing out Boyd's deficiencies but since he came back we rarely drop the ball. He does not do much with it these days but he is still safe.

Issako l fear could be like Barba was for us at fullback, when he was taking the high ball l used to pray to multiple gods and he would drop a few every game. It was so frustrating being put under constant pressure. Our defence is too brittle these day's to compensate for that cap. I would still give him a go at fullback when/if he regains some form on the wing but when a high kick goes his way l will be 100% shitting myself every time.
 
i'm hoping the origin result fires up the Broncos contingent and they come out and put a hiding on the Knights

Yeah, every time Isaako goes up for the ball, it's like a toss of a coin.

That is throwing the coin in the air to defuse a kick, hoping it catches it.
 
Time to mix it up I suppose:

1. Milford
2. Oates
3. Staggs
4. Boyd
5. Coates
6. SOS
7. Paix
8. Haas
9. Turpin
10. Lodge
11. Glenn
12. Gillett
13. Macca

14. Segeyaro
15. Flegler
16. Mago
17. Fifita
 
Fifita needs a spell and gillo also. Maybe Shiva on the wing and isaako in the centers. Macca to start.
