I need to preface this with saying that I have not seen Miers since the pre-season.That’s the thing though. We don’t have any concerns about blooding first year players over the journey, even in big games. So that takes out another common reason to not play him. I need to start watching VFL.
But....I had/have serious concerns about his kicking action. May be accurate in open play, and probably ok at lower levels, but appeared to me as an action that would struggle to hold up under serious pressure and was quite slow from hand to foot. Felt like an player that was likely to be kicking under pressure because of the time required to get that action in operation.
As I said, this was an observation based on a ridiculously small sample size, and I hope I am wrong.
Can anyone give me any comfort that this won’t be an issue? Please?
