Milton Thaiday (born 15 February 1980) is an Austrailian former Torres Strait Islander rugby league player for the Newcastle Knights in the National Rugby League competition.[1]
He is a cousin of Sam Thaiday of the Brisbane Broncos.[2] In the 2005 season he scored 7 tries in 14 appearances.[1]
Milton suffered a season-ending shoulder injury in round 5 and missed the remainder of the 2007 campaign.
In the 2007 season Milton did not feature much for The Knights as he was battling injury, with coach Brian Smith preferring utility Kurt Gidley at fullback over the explosive Thaiday. Thaiday retired at the end of the 2007 season.[citation needed]
