Miller to be delisted


ox_5

Recommended Posts

SEN has stated that he does not want to leave Melbourne (the city) given other aspects of his life.

And I reckon we are still a very young side that will always need guidance to train properly. And we are 18 months off being a "feared" side.

Really appreciate the clubs offer for a farewell but know I wouldn't feel right about turning my back on the scorps for week 1 of the finals

Good ethical decision. Explains why he was always considered a great clubman. Well done Brad.

Great decision Brad. You are a true gentleman with a great set of ethics. Have a great game and lead Casey to victory. Enjoy the moment.

I hope a few of the Dees supporters are able to get out & support Casey before going to the "G".

I sure hope Millers team ethics have rubbed off on the playing group despite his limited appearances this season. What an amazing gesture of support for his teammates at Casey and fair enough too, as hard as it must have been I can see how he would feel that a token farewell game with the Dees would be less satisfying than playing in the finals with the guys he has played alongside with for most of the season. Respect.

QUESTION: If one of Miller or Bell go to GC, do we still have 1 player outstanding on our list that GC may "pinch" seeing (as we delisted both Bell and Miller)??

Say what you like about Miller's playing ability he has been a great clubman for us and i do not mean that in the patronising way it sometimes seems to be said in. Can't (or shouldn't) knock a guy who gives his all. Link says it all

You cannot question this guy. Miller is a true clubman!

I hope he can find what he is looking for. If not I would be chuffed to cheer for this guy every week at Casey Next season.

Screw "Clubman" (whatever that means)! Brad Miller is a great guy and I reckon everyone who barracks for Melbourne would be disappointed that he wasn't quite good enough. Usually when you see a guy his age get de-listed, some (or most) supporters are glad to see the back of them, but not Frosty. Good luck Brad, and feel free to give us some of the best-looking Father Son Picks ever in around twenty years.

Yes & no.

GC can actually take more than one player per club with their "free agency" type arrangement with the other club's permission. So if they wanted both Miller & Bell then we would obviously give our blessing and be compensated for both.

However, outside of taking either of these players through the "free agency" type arrangement they could wait to pick them up in the draft. I doubt they would want to waste draft picks when they needn't so if either or both of these players goes to GC, we will likely receive compensation.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
