Nathan Jones not so long ago, tweeted he following:

Shout out @BradMilzy What a legend of a bloke. Quality leader & player with awesome resilience.Congrats bro on a sick career!Yew!

I've seen nothing else indicating his retirement...but if not retiring, seems like a strange tweet.

Just heard on SEN Miller has retired effective immediatly....some other Rich player also....

Yep, just tweeted by the AFL:

Miller and Moore call it a day: http://www.richmondfc.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/6301/newsid/144762/default.aspx

if so id jump on him to come back to our club for some sort of assistant coaching quality. had tremendous leadership and would be an asset to our young brigade

Good on you Brad

much maligned on the forums probably would have done well under Neeld

Would still be a welcome addition in some capacity at the club for his attitude and focus and of course Pia

Everything I've heard about him is that he was great clubman while at Melbourne, I had high hopes for him early on in his time at Melbourne and although he never reached the hights I wished for he had some great moments with us.

Would like him to come back to the club at some stage.

How old was he?

Forced out?

We were all a bit slow today. It took a good 5 posts for a Pia mention on a Brad Miller thread.

Well done on getting the best out of yourself, Brad.

Well done Brad. Welcome back at the MFC anytime.

His only 28, sounds like a forced retirement to me...

Well done Brad - I am with Pates - never quite reached the heights expected after so much early promise.

Im not sure how good a coach he would make - he has some fantastic qualities -loyalty, leadership,commitment to the contest and apparently a top bloke. On the flipside - he was not the cleverest footballer going around in terms of running to the right places and making good decisions.

I compare him to Leigh Brown- somewhat similar but Brown at Collingwood was given a role and you would have to say that he did his job to perfection.

Congrats on your time at Melbourne and an extended life at the Tiges

Well done Brad. Welcome back at the MFC anytime.

Agree.

Yeah was a good player for us, never quite delivered what he often promised but was a great AFL player non the less, Thanks Brad

28, was on rookie list, Tigers obviously not prepared to elevate to main list = retire or run the gauntlet of another draft. Probably made the right call. Only slim chances of being drafted and if he was there would be a good chance he'd need to shift interstate.

Probably not interested in doing that at this stage in life.

Well done Brad. You played some very good games at the Dees and always made sure to do the hard work on the track and in the gym to get his body as right as possible.

I sat next Brad's dad in the AFL members during a Melbourne Richmond game many years ago. Brad was in the best, I think Neita kicked a big bag. It was truly a pleasure. A great guy, very proud of his son and rightfully so.

His only 28, sounds like a forced retirement to me...

Just because Richmond isn't giving him another year, doesn't mean they're forcing him to retire. Brad is smart enough to know another club was not going to take him, so he would've chosen to retire. He could've opted to enter the draft again if he so wished.

That only happens at MFC.

He was pick 55 in the 2001 draft. FMD, he has delivered more than some Top 10 draft picks

Well done Brad. You played some very good games at the Dees and always made sure to do the hard work on the track and in the gym to get his body as right as possible.

Fully support that 100%

Fantastic bloke. Well done for getting the most of your career. Stellar achievement and hold your head high.

probably retired so he could devote more time to domestic issues.....hmmmm LB

Well done Brad. On your career, yes. But more so on your personal life. Off-field you're a triple Brownlow medallist in my eyes.

Well done Brad Miller on a fine AFL career.

Always a class act as a player.

Over-achieved for a pick 55.

Well I'll be the first to admit I bagged him for his past 4 years at the Dees, however I never played AFL footy (and that says it all!) , so good on ya Brad happy retirement.

Goes down as a 150 game player and that's on the back of true dedication. Well done Brad, it's an exceptional effort.

Also interesting that his career score was 120 goals 77 behinds, that's not a bad conversion rate for someone that I remember being an unreliable shot for goal.

150 games, 5 good ones

150 games, 5 good ones

Disingenuous to say the least.

A little grace occasionally would not kill you

Brad had some excellent games as a linkman CHF. When Brad was able to lead up to provide an option handballing the ball off, the ball moved quickly in the forward line creating 1:1 options to Nieta and co. His biggest problem was he could not be a gorilla type and use his bulk to advantage when the ball was on top of his head.

He got the most out of himself and had Hall's measure as a backman.

Kudos to him.
