Milney's improvement in 2010

Post: # 934435Post One Eyed Saint »

This guy is having a bloody good year so far.

In the absence of #12 he has been the only forward who has consistently stepped up, even in WA where he previously would not have.

After what would have been a touch pill to swallow (last years GF), he has taken his game to the next level with greater consistence and greater on field leadership.

Without #44 we would have lost to the Bulldogs, wouldn't have been in the game against WCE or beaten Freo in Melbourne

My hat's off to you Milney, you are a star, you have a red-hot crack and set the example for others around you

Best wishes for game #200 with many more to come...

Was that game 198 yesterday?? ooh that means his 200 in against Freo another big game for us Westerners.

I love watching him play he is just so inpredictable and makes the game exciting to watch.

He is an excitement machine and will reach the rare achievement of 200 games and 400 goals.

Well done Milney!

Love the tiprat, is underrated amongst non saints supporters. 400 goals from 200 games is a supreme effort by a small forward.

Disagree, goalkicking is as good as ever but his tackling is down.

Love him but needs to get back to last year's pressure.

I think he needs 2 goals for 400 and 2 games for 200. Great effort.

It's a bummer his 200th is interstate and i won't see it live, but congrats Milney, well deserved.
He's been my favourite player for probably 185 of those matches and I've loved watch him grow from the goal sneak in long sleeves, to the player he is now - still an excitement machine but more consistent and an overall better player.
I would love to have a DVD of his highlights over the years, it would make for an enetertaining couple of hours! Hell, bloody Didak got a DVD, I reckon Milney's just as deserving!
He's been fantastic to watch over the years and there's plenty more to come. And if i don't get the chance to thank him for what he's provided for me at the footy as well as being so approachable off it, thanks Dogga, you're an asset to the club.

I am glad his 200 is here in the West, it is a bonus for those of us who only get to see the boys live once or twice a year. I will be priveledged to see both of my favourite players over the years have special games Robewrt Harvey's 350 and now Milney's 200.
We just need the same result!!! :lol: :lol: which I am sure we will

I wonder if there's a 'Milney Had A Great Game Today' thread each week on Essendon fan forums? :?
