Broncos coach Kevin Walters has given Anthony Milford a clear directive after being forced to recall him due to Tyson Gamble's one-week ban for a crusher tackle. Speaking to 4BC's Wide World of Sports Radio last night, Walters all but confirmed Milford would be back in the side to face the Storm on Thursday night, adding that he'd told him exactly what he wants to see from him in first grade after twice axing the $1 million-a-season player this season. Milford is set to pair Albert Kelly in what will be Brisbane's sixth halves combination of the season, with Walters adopting a rotating door policy in the hunt for a winning formula. Milford has previously partnered Brodie Croft, Tom Dearden and Gamble, with his most recent axing coming after a Magic Round trouncing to the resurgent Sea Eagles. Due to his talent level and his price tag, Milford has been the focus of plenty of personal criticism again this season, with Andrew Johns recently asking if he still had the desire to play at NRL level. He will get yet another chance to answer that question against one of the competition's benchmark teams in Round 12 and Walters revealed he's made his expectations clear.
