Kevin Walters dropped million-dollar man Anthony Milford to reserve grade last week but said it will take a lot more than what he delivered for Souths Logan to get him back into the NRL side. For the second week in a row the ex-Queensland Origin star has not been named in Brisbane's NRL side as he fights for not just his spot, but his future at the club. Last week was the first time in Milford's 185-game NRL career he was dropped to reserve grade, but it didn't have the immediate impact Walters was looking for. "Last week, it was a tough game," Walters said on Thursday. "I was out at Souths and watched it ... if I was to be honest, no he wasn't up to the standard that we believe he can play at. "But that's one game of four or five, however many it takes for him to get back to the football we know he can play." "It won't be my decision, it will be Anthony's decision as to whether he makes his way back into the team or not," Walters said. "He has been given some clear instructions about what he needs to do. When he does that he will be back into the side. "He needs to continue to do what Milf can do well and that's the points I made about ends of sets, and running game and defence." "Nah, we are very happy with our situation at the moment ... trying to sign Kotoni and having a good look at Tommy Dearden as well," he said. "He is part of our systems so at this stage we are not looking outside the circle. "We don't anticipate losing Tom."
