Big Whisper out of Perth

Lads,

Heard from a good source (Lipon), who is quite close to someone on the West Coast board, that West coast are very interested in securing the services of one Bradley Miller. Its only early days, but if Judd does choose Melbourne, they would be willing to trade him for Pick 4 and Bradley.

Now, I was devestated upon hearing this news.

I am sure you will all agree, that Miller is a required player. In fact in my opinion an untouchable.

I agree Judd is a very good footballer, but a trade like this would set our club back 5-10 years.

Miller is a once in a generation player, and if he was given more bloody opportunities, we could all marvel at the legend from Mount Gravatt.

Granted, he had a down game in last year's Semi Final against Fremantle, and he does not lead well or handball enough, however his kicking, marking and on-field leadership are second to none.

His workrate and dedication are admirable, and players like James McDonald and Brock Mclean, would do themselves no disservice by taking a leaf out of the great man's book.

I feel that a deciscion like this coupled with the premature departure of Neale Daniher, will steer the club in the wrong direction.

Yours truly,

Barry Miller

Done...where do we sign!!!! :lol::rolleyes:

 

Hahahaha. Do you write for Rove? :rolleyes:

Imagine if this really did happen... :o

fantastic!

barry, just wondering if you think working with an ex mt gravat coach will hinder millers performances at all? we all know that sometimes going back to the past can cause a relapse to old form. could this be a reason to trade him?

one other question barry, is it cheaper for you to get flights to melb or perth from your home in queensland?


Yours truly,

Barry Miller

I think his father's name's Neville, not Barry and other than that it's a bit over the top with sarcasm but you're on the right tram. Don't forget that Bradley played an impeccable game in a final at Subiaco last year and the Weagles need another tall forward. Perhaps Barry or Neville could persuade them to take the player only and leave the draft pick with us.

It appears to me that you guys are insinuating that I am somehow related to Bradley. I should be so lucky to be part of his Miller lineage (although God did bless me with the same surname as Bradley).

In answer to your question, I actually think Brad will flourish under his old coach. Apparantly, he was used as a major motivation for Bailey to apply for the job.

I dont know why you are all so keen on this trade, players like (Sir) Bradley Miller, come along quite infrequently.

We have already lost Heath Nevile, lets ensure Brad is not lost to our proud club.

 

I can't be the only one who thinks we are drifting a little close to the insane :blink: !!!

some of us are already there !! :lol: B)


Gah. I was hoping this would be a big fat legitimate rumour. I don't know about anyone else but I find myself trawling every last corner of the internet at present for the latest Judd "goss".

I can't remember the last time I was this rumour thirsty.

Funny none the less though, nice post!

You sir, are a very funny man.

Get it done Melbourne!

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
