Greg Miller on Sport 927

[Rosy]

Greg was interviewed on Sport927

This link is for those who'd like to listen and I've done a bit of a summary for those without sound.

• Greg and Terry saw Polly on Monday. He was remembering a few things. A remarkable improvement to a week ago and a testament to how fit a young man he was and also a bit of good luck
  
  
• Cogs played for the Coburg reserves for 3 quarters and got through ok. He’ll play for Coburg seniors this week against Port Melbourne. Greg spoke about the Germany treatment. Good for Cogs to get away from the country. A solid couple of weeks without distractions. Cogs is feeling very good. Success probably from a combination of mental and physical treatment as well as the injections.
  
  
• Richo said he was only 10-15 minutes away from making it to the break when he hurt his hammy. He’s struggling a bit but he reckons he’ll play. Medical people will make the decision later in the week, possibly Friday.
  
  
• Subi is a big ground but Richo played his first game on the wing there, we beat Freo by 8 points and turned around our fortunes.
  
  
• Our style of footy suits there, run and carry and a bit of pace. Optiistic about that side of it. The week off will help a few Weagles carrying injuries. Anticipating a heavy ground, there’s been a lot of rain over there.
  
  
• 
  Asked how to manage the week off Greg said he would have loved to take the team to Qld for a week and get a bit of warm weather. They had to think about how to manage the week off. Sydney might be questioning ho they managed it, maybe they weren’t ready for Collingwood.
  
  
• Trained until Thursday on the week off then had a few days off. Richo didn’t spend the break in a fun way. Not only had his hammy to deal with but also a swollen mouth following having his wisdom teeth removed in hospital.
  
  Hope you're feeling better now Matty :grouphug
  
  
• Alex Rance and Andy Collins are playing good footy at Coburg and aren’t far away from making their debut

Richo a chance???? I highly doubt that.

Good to see Collins hopefully get a go. Hope Rance gets the next chance.

I haven't managed to watch a game live at the ground this year.  Is the above comment an accurate description of our style of play or is it a style we hope to achieve?

Watching on telly it sees we still stuff around with short passes to standing targets quite a bit but from the limited perspective it's hard to tell how far we've come towards a run and carry mentality.  Reading comments on here it seems our midfield is often a weak point.  Does the run and  carry coe from there or more from the half  line?

When we play well its the way we play, when pressure is put on is when we begin to stuff around with it.

Thanks Ian.

Having to put up with Miller or Wallets dross and BS on the radio is a surefure way to make me change channels.

Ive never seen or heard two people have so much of so little to say of substance.
