    Yeah true, Milford just looks so great. Becoming a bigger and bigger fan of him.

    TBH, he was always this good. It will sound like sour grapes, but I'd credit most of the improvement to the change in the guys around him (a 9 Billion dollar roster helps Razz). Look at that broncos team compared to what he had when playing for Raiders. When he was with us we seemed to do nothing and just look to him for making a play. Makes it a lot easier for defences and harder for him.
    But yeah I do agree, he's a great player and fantastic to watch as a neutral. Unfortunately I can't get excited watching him any more, just leaves a bad taste in my mouth Sad

    Oh don't get me wrong I have always thought he was great even while he was playing with the Raiders. But as you said the side around him also makes a difference and he has just been more and more consistent at making those plays and breaking the line and that is something I like. I rate consistently good players over players with flashes of greatness. Milford has been becoming more consistent which I love seeing, especially as a Broncos supporter. Oh and speak of the man himself...

    Didn't you ask me who I was going to run with between Mansour and Barba so you could go the opposite? I went Mansour.

    Oh boy, was waiting for the press conference and now I HAVE to watch it. Apparently Ricky gives it to someone in the media.

    Cartwright is playing his last game for men

    Expected huge things from him this year but for what he actually is/does, he is grossly over priced. High risk of errors (without the high reward This year) and out there in the centres.

    Will likely be where I get my cash for Garvey upgrade

    TMM - 15 Tackles 0 missed in the halves against this broncos pack. That's looking like a must have.

    Cartwright is so frustrating to watch, looks gassed and hardly gets involved.
    Loves to charge out of the line and throw the odd arm grab and 50/50 offload that goes to opposition.
    Just when you think he is on the chopping block.....

    Boom try.

    In H2H Ive got Bunt, he's got Milford.

    It was looking like a good race until that second try.

    Bittersweet as a Broncs fan - if Milf can just slow a bit...

    More of a joke as I was planning on taking Barba either way.
