is one of the best young players in the AFL. The QBE Sydney Swans Academy graduate won the 2016 AFL Rising Star award and was selected in the AFL Players’ Association’s 22Under22 team in three of his four eligible years. Mills is a small defender with uncompromising courage who’s also capable of shifting through the midfield. The New South Welshman was elevated to Sydney’s leadership group during the 2018 pre-season at the age of just 21, and he’s now a member of a five-man leadership panel alongside co-captains Josh Kennedy, Luke Parker

Roberts if he is going to his back/mid role

It’ll be a tough call no matter which way you look at it … my initial view is he comes in for Lloyd on the wing , with some rotation thru the guts.

 

[Nuggetz]

Forget fitting him in, lets hope he doesn't have anymore setbacks. He'll come in underdone, likely needing a few VFL games before senior selection. If we get Mills to return at AFL level this season then it'll be a bonus imo.

 

[Adnico26Parker]

Promising news

Surely now worth creating a new thread “Where to fit captain Cal into the team?”
Looking forward to the thousands of permutations we will all come up with

I said the same thing in the Parker thread!

It’s going to be… interesting

Cmon Nuggetz, we need some juicy topics to discuss / agree / disagree haha
But yes getting Cal fit and ready for the finals would be a huge bonus!

 

[The King!]

I just hope we still have the problem

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Longmire said his shoulder is fine would be good to go if it wasnt for his Calf.

 

[Adnico26Parker]

I wonder if they might try and give him some limited game time against the Bullants next Friday before our AFL/VFL byes the following weekend?

Then increase the minutes in the following 2 games post the bye.

Probably not worth the risk given he’ll have a further 2 weeks to recover more

Promising news

Surely now worth creating a new thread “Where to fit captain Cal into the team?”
Looking forward to the thousands of permutations we will all come up with

I’ve run some regression analysis, looked at the random number generator and consulted the magic 8 ball. All roads lead to Roberts (sadly for him).

 

[The Gong]

Roberts is developing really nicely but Mills is Mills, one of the best two way midfielders going around, and you have to make that change. Roberts will have his time.

 

[TheMase]

Maybe he can run the water. Have seen them do that a few times with returning players.

 

[JackHiscoxWasFast]

Is Millsy a chance against Geelong ?
