Robertson & Miller

Featured Replies

Last trade period, Miller and Robbo were the only sought after players from MFC as far as I am aware; Miller by Sydney, Robbo by the Bullies.

This forum have given both players heaps of flack. Maybe time to put the personals aside, and listen to the pros.

There is no doubt that Bailey rates both players: after the cats game, he spoke admiringly of Robbo's aerobic and anaerobic capacity. His positive comments about Miller have been listed elsewhere.

These are both quality players who do not get the highest $'s out of a cap. They should be recognised as quality, if not at the highest level.

 

Robbo has been with the club 10 years now... surely you know how to at least pronounce his friggen name properly!!!!!!

Robbo is clearly a spent force at the moment, his heart is not fully behind his footy, and needs to lift his game

Brad Miller has done all we could have asked of him so far, he is never going to be a champion, but he is a workhorse, and should continue to grow in confidence, a game at CHF on the G will prove some doubters wrong!!!

Hey, I know how to spell "Robbo". :rolleyes:

I think DB rates different aspects of each player. Having said that I would say it those aspects of Miller which he admires more than some of the aspects of Robbo that he does not.

I cant recall DB dragging Miller a number of times for indiscretions. I think Robbo is struggling.


Yes..and if you listened carefully to Bails he did indeed speak of Robbos aerobic capacity.. his motro etc. That she effected a spoil fruther up field. I thought that rather strange myself to talk of that when discussing. I mean.. Robbo is a forward. Didnt speak too much about his great effort near the sticks.. or his dmaging affect on the scorebaord.. NO. He spoke of his need to work a bit harder and get results.

Or maybe we just hear different things !!

Yep Swannies wanted Miller so badly they offered 5 bottle tops.. , a Blockbuster coupon and a packet of crisps !! :rolleyes:-_-

god bless you misses robinson!

hahaha its funy becauses mrs robertson would perhaps be a better name for him nowadays....

Robbo was a champion, but over the last three weeks he's shown little to prove his place in the team. I hope this changes, but if not we must have no qualms about giving him the axe to let him get back into form at sandy

Miller...Hrm i just still don't know. I feel every 1 or 2 games i watch he does something that makes me sit up and think, 'hey!,' but then i'm not sure if that's just because the bar has been set lower or what, still willing to give him more time because after all, what else is this year about

Frosty's best footy is when he is at CHF leading up the ground. When he does this there needs to be another tall filling his space as the next option to kick to.

Miller as a deep forward does not work for me. When he stays inside or around the 50, he doesn't kick enough goals as a CHF should (a huge problem).

He needs to be told to kick for goal when he's inside the 50. He needs to become more greedy. None of this dishing off to a running player 99% of the time. When he does this, more times than not he gives it to a player under pressure from their opponent.

He also needs his mongrel to return, controlled mongrel. DB is working on this i think. It's time for Miller to become greedy and demand the footy, no matter what position of the ground he is placed.

Could not agree with you more Demon Disciple.

I believe Miller is a confidence player. (along with alot of our team). I think he should always be played at CHF. I have a dvd at home which is called "demons magical moments" or something of the sort and it has a section on Miller. When he is up and about he is a great player to have.

The times people bag him are mainly when he is playing in the backline and I really don't think he understands how to play that position.

I thought Miller did some great things against Geelong and I really hope he stays at CHF this year.

For Robbo. I think he is lacking in his defensive pressure at the moment. Doesn't chase/block/talk/handball. Really has to start thinking TEAM rather than GOAL or MARK of the year every round.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
