Quote: Fordy "Surely if he was 3rd choice then that makes him 2nd rate, ie next choice behind the starting 2 centres.
And anyway as others have said Ryan, Matt Gidley, Matt King would all look poor in our side.'"
I think Millard was unlucky at the Bulldogs as he was behind Josh Morris (the NRLs top try scorer that season I think) and Jamal Idris who took the comp by storm as a rookie.
I think you're right about Gidley and King et al. The way we play, the centres never get the ball early enough or in any kind of space to show what they can do. A lot of the time we used Atkins as a battering ram 10 yards from the line.
