Personally I don't think we need him based on the fact he would be a little bit wasted parked out in the centres. He wouldn't be fullback with Boyd, he wouldn't be five-eighth with Milford, and although he was among the best centres in the world when he played there, I just feel for his price tag, its probably not worth letting go crucial players from our current squad to accommodate him.
But if he where to come up to the Broncos, it'd be under one condition only, and that is to lose some weight. Even if he doesn't end up here, as a fan, I still feel he'd be better with a little less weight.
Since he left Melbourne, I feel as if he is playing well above his ideal playing weight. He's almost too big. He's not fulfilling his potential and talent by opting to be a battering ram by trying to run over blokes rather than run around them with his pace. If he leans down a bit, he'll regain some speed, and I think it'll take less toll on his knees and the rest of his body. He has always been strong in the upper body, but I think he is at his best whenever he's been leaner, rather than outright huge.
Although I must admit, the thought of Milford to Inglis is certainly an upgrade on Milford to Reed. That would be a mouth watering combination and based on our preference to predominantly attack down the left side, he would score or set up Oates almost every touch of the ball.
