Milford was okay at five eight. A couple of promising moments that never translated into anything. The problem is we've seen him be far more impactful in the past at fullback that it's kinda hard to accept a less powerful performance from five eight. Still, if we're to judge him purely as a five eight he did okay. His lack of a long kicking game is really hurting us though.
Disappointed by Blair. I know he had a cork or some shit and didn't return, but his first stint was dead ordinary. That pass 20m backwards was just rubbish and he seemed to be resting on his laurels.
Also, have to bring up that Maranta no try. There is quite simply no excuse for that, and it is not a one off. Must be at least the tenth time he's done that at NRL level. People say that Vidot not catching bombs can cost us a game, but ****ing up something that simple can as well. Seriously, there's no excuse. Even if he does over step, he had time to re-establish himself in the field of play and then score. But nope, total lack of awareness.
