No Miller?

[Buddha117]

One would have thought he would have got a game..

I don't care though why change a winning formula?

Is this Millers last season? Is he out of contract?

Out of contract as I understand.

I've really wanted him to succeed at the club. But he's had that many chances that it's not funny anymore.

Apart from off-field leadership and most importantly his wife Pia, there's no need to have him on for next season.

So yes, you'd think it'd be his last season, barring a miracle.

i dont think it will be personally, I think his leadership for the youngsters may be too good. From all reports from the club he is an amazing leader.

And on his day he can kick some goals.

He's a more than capable depth player if needed.

absolutely correct about the depth player. He is one of the those players that team rubbish but if you can have him as a depth player, you have severe depth if you know what i mean

I thought he might of played this week. Being a physical contest I thought he could help the team out

If we dont keep him we dont have a spare KPF and also he's leadership is second only to McDonald from why i understand..
Keep him contracted and play in the reserves unless he's kicking 6 every week. Although Watts pushing all the way up to the HBF and Juraah filling Watts space in the 50 and Green deep seems to be working pretty well.. i dont know if Miller could handle it.

What about guys like Moloney, Bruce and Green? I've heard they also play a pretty big part in leadership around the club. Would Miller really be second to Junior?

 

[DemonBlood]

i reckon he would, does alot outside the club. I know Moloney runs that boxing trip though.

 

[d33my]

Well unless you have a definitive source (I don't, just going from what I see in the media etc, which I suppose is what your basing your opinion on too), I guess its just your word against mine. Lol.

 

[DemonBlood]

Well ill settle for top 5 in leadership. Haha
either way give him a 2 year deal.

Miller has to go lads. If he was ever going to get a game, this week was probably going to be it. Bailey surely has showed his hand as to what his plans are for Miller.

Watts, Jurrah, Wona, Petterd, Sylvia, Green, Benell, Bate,Tapscott, Dunn and a plethora of midfielders who can kick us a goal. Add what will surely be a KPF in this draft, and we have plenty of depth without Miller on our list. If we keep him on our list because of his leadership, then we are going backwards, not forwards. How can the kids look up to a guy who can't even get a run in the senior side?

He's had a million chances, it's time to move him on and replace him with a young kid with potential.

I don't pretend I have an inside source I work at a retail store. I have been here 3 years never once claimed so, BUT what I have heard about Miller from various sources (including pies supporters among others) is millers leadership is fantastic.

That is just what I have heard, the source you ask? many many people, none that I have talked to that Miller has become the subject leadership has become a strong topic.

It would have been an ill-informed thought from one.

Yeah, I suppose ten goals don't warrant consideration, hey?

Exactly, the hate from some of this board directed at miller is kinda stupid.. doesnt make sense.
