Player Watch Wayne Milera

[NTRabbit]

Indigenous Round

And since we developed that reputation that hasn't gone away, we've only got two indigenous players left on the men's list

But we made room for Lindsay Thomas - yuck

When did our club change ??

I've had a guts full of the 'he's a nice nice guy" , so lets give him games rhetoric .

Have a look at the last 10yrs Premiers and tell one team that didn't have a player or 2 in the headlines for messing up.

From the day's of the Tippett saga to Turdman Burton and his camp, Tex's stupid comments, giving Stengle the flick etc

It seems our priority one is trying to appease the media & the AFL .

Is this extension is just another example..??

For FS please start playing players on merit and develop some mongrel into the club.

Heavens forbid if we ever draft a player with sleeve.

When did our club change ??

When Blight walked off early in mid 1999.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

You know if they're willing to do this, they will be willing to re-sign Nicks.

 

[Burtonsgottago]

He plays the easiest position on the ground and is only average at it.

 

[King Elvis]

Sigh.
Why?

I actually like Milera but surely we should want to see a little bit more from him before committing long term again, after being burnt so badly last time

I like him too - who cares?

is harsh. Mackay didn't mind a tackle, as ineffective as it was. Milera will just coast next to an opponent and lays a token hand on them as they spring away. Massive softy.

A non damaging half back signed on for another 3 years to the easiest position on the ground that should be reserved for future midfielders or elite kicks who take risks (Hinge types).

We can't get rid of the stench of the players from that 2017 era. Maybe get rid of the guy who keeps signing them up.

Small lockdown defender is bloody tough!

/s

 

[King Elvis]

He should be playing SANFL.

Would love to hear somebody ask the Club what the rationale behind this is.

Wayne was in demand and we felt it necessary to lock him in

He’s not a small lockdown defender

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

I know, hence the /s (sarcasm).

Read through the last 10 pages.

I'd bet you'd hear a lot before you got to how he's actually been performing in games.

Can’t be bothered. How about I just take your word for it?

 

[FR0GGY]

Can’t be bothered. How about I just take your word for it?

There’s 1 poster that’s supported him and says he takes the best small forward each week and is 10/0 taking scalps this year.

I must be watching different games

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Said poster has the wrong M... has Milera confused for Max.

 

[All_In]

So glad Kuwarna have signed him up, frees up a space on the AFC list and gives some youngsters a go that might enjoy the odd tackle... /s

 

[StonesThrow]

Gonna go against the grain here by the looks of it and say he's picked up his game to a decent level as the year has gone on. Started poorly as he always does coming back from injury and really shouldn't have been playing in the 1s.

Definitely wouldn't have given him 3 years though. We've had some very good list management in recent times and this is poor. Very injury prone and not a very important player.

 

[cmndstab]

I struggle to get too worked up about this.

It is 100% clear that the club views him as being firmly in our best 22, so a two-year extension was the minimum they were going to offer. Is three years too long? Probably. Oh well. Perhaps the extra year means a bit less money per year?

 

[maxlilly]

The biggest fear is if he doesn't improve or his form drops, we will still be playing him for the next 3 1/2 years

The club is a reflection of the supporter base.

Operation "get NWM" has begun.
