2009 Player Review - # 7 Brad Miller

Featured Replies

Simply didn't finish his work off in front of goal too many times. Will also not be surprised if he is not on the 2011 list.

edit: Since signed a 1 year contract which will see him on the list for 2010.

Ok then. We have to delist half the list then. Miller hasn't come on as well as would have liked, but who will replace him? What good will it do to have a forward like of all smalls? What do they learn? You've been around here too long to just say "delist" to any player you don't like. There has to be replacements waiting in the wings. And there just aren't enough.

So what's the alternative? Do you really think DB will go into a season with 2 2nd year players and a CHF? We don't have the incoming cattle to be able to just get rid of Miller on a whim. Don't get me wrong, I think for out future, if we can get someone young to hold down a spot, then it'd work well for Miller to go. If Temel and Butcher for example were both headed for the dees, then we have names. But EVEN THEN our major forwards wouldn't be out of their teens. It's just not realistic. You want to get even more angry, I bet next year if Newton does nothing he'll be gone, freeing up another place.

I mentioned Newton in my last post because he's on the list, and if he stays there, he'll play games next year in the forward line. If you're not mentioning him because you don't think he'll get games, then it's hard to take your post seriously.

I don't know how the club sees Miller, but if he is just 'depth' in their eyes - what's the point?

It's not fair to him, it's not going to help us in another development year to give games to someone who isn't going to be around. And it would be hardly on a whim, the guy has been around since the 2001 draft. That's 8 years.

I have already said that I would like Miller to stay on and attempt to play that high HF role that seems to be his only position.

His value could also be felt by Watts gleaning off of him what is required, on the training track and in the gym, to get the most out of yourself and your body.

2010 is another development year and Bailey has already stated that the most important thing is to 'put games into the right players.'

Shielding kids from AFL with someone that doesn't cut it makes little sense to me.
