Anyone else interested in Anthony Miles from Richmond?

I really think Miles is the kind of player that's too good for VFL but not good enough for AFL. He was always one of the best players in the VFL for the Tiges, but never their best player. And he had a couple of good games for the AFL side over the past couple of years, but never consistently enough to actually keep his spot.

It said a few young Eagles. It might not be about 5 there are at least 4 clubs involved, if you can believe it.
Clearly anyone who makes up trade news about us dealing with Eagles haven't studied our trading history with them, maybe if it involves 4 teams but couldn't see us getting any Eagles....unless its McGovern.

The problem has been from the very start (with the exception of about 10 games) that Croz has never played in a position that is favourable to his skill set.
His 10 or so games off half back were the best he has ever played, then suddenly in his wisdom RTB decides to stifle him and send him forward into a more defensive pressure / shut down role.
Yeah but the Lyon Koolaid Krew will still tell you that we are excellent at retaining players despite having 3 players walk out on the club in the last 2 seasons.

Was trying to think who you were talking about as the third. So are you complaining about player retention when we lost Mayne?
Man, your Lyon hate knows no bounds. By all reports Balic was a lost cause from the start and has nothing to do with Lyon. Did he run over your puppy or something?

No, just ruined the team I love.

And my enjoyment of the sport as a whole.
