As a mature age rookie. Reported on 'the Australian' website.

THE reshaping of Richmond under first-year coach Damian Hardwick is in full swing.

The Tigers are certain to add some forward support with the acquisition of recently delisted Demon Brad Miller.

Miller, 27, has been invited to join Richmond in December as a mature-age rookie, with a role as a back-up forward for John Coleman medallist Jack Riewoldt and injured young centre half-forward Ben Griffiths, who has undergone reconstructive surgery on both shoulders.

Recruited to Melbourne from Queensland by Craig Cameron, who is now the Tigers' general manager of football operations, Miller is also viewed at Punt Road as a future coach.

Wow, I did not see this coming. Good Luck to Millsy. I bet Pia would look great in yellow and black.....

Interesting to see where the Toiges position their bar !!

Good luck to him.

good luck brad.

Well deserved Brad, go Millsy.

Well done to Brad for convincing another club he's worthy of a spot.

Great news for Brad. Hopefully he has a couple of great games just not against us.

Whoa. Didn't see that one coming. Not sure about this one Dimma.

Good luck to him I guess.

Good luck Brad. Hope to see you back in a few years. Maybe in a slightly different capacity.

All the best.

I'm pretty sure Pia looks good in what ever colour she's in. Good luck Mills

Great to hear.

They could do worse, especially in terms of leadership off the field.

All the best to him!!!

Good luck and really should be comended on his negotiaton tactics.

She's look alright with Tigerskin Rug, as well!

ON the rug.

Good luck millsy, i do watch a lot of the tigers as my whole family supports them.

This should be interesting.

They could do worse and worthy of a spot IMO still has something to offer.

Miller would only get to the Tigers if GCS does not want him. If GCS wants him, then the Tigers would need to trade for him and put him on their primary list. Depends on how bad they want him.

Hi,

first time poster here,

I just read on the afl website that Brad Miller has not yet been delisted and that we might look to trade him to the tigers..

MELBOURNE

On the table: Brad Miller was set to be delisted until Richmond expressed an interest, so he should be off to Punt Rd. Nathan Jones was talked about as possibly seeking a new home but has just re-signed. It's hard to see many of Dean Bailey's young squad being ushered out.

Targets: The Demons are looking to consolidate their list by re-signing the wealth of young talent they already have rather than build it by trading, although they appear interested in North's David Hale.

I assume we have not lodged our delistees yet? Unfortunately, Miller's currency would be close to nothing, but does anyone know when clubs have to lodge their delisted players?

I don't know how to add a link, so if anyone can, that would be great

Go Dees

All contracts run till October 31.

Would be an alright pick up for Richmond actually, take the pressure off Jack Riewoldt that the opposing back line will drill to shut down hard core every game

I assume we have not lodged our delistees yet? Unfortunately, Miller's currency would be close to nothing, but does anyone know when clubs have to lodge their delisted players?

I believe this is a reason why Brad and Belly were not delisted, but told they would not be offered new contracts. If a club shows an interest and the player wants to go there then we can make sure they get to where they want to go.

Nice work. Gotta look after our good people.

So .. Ok . I assume we aren't just giving Brad to the Toiges just facilitating that he got to where he wants to. Is there compensation of some fashion in all this ? Or is the likely pick (if so) just not worth worrying about ? Surely he just doesn't walk down the road for nothing ?
