Pick 63, 2017 Ben Miller - Welcome to Tigerland.

Odds on the Maggots or Drugs will go for him if we push him out, they are both in need of defensive talls.

Lepa and Rutten would back themselves to make a player of him he has the tools and the physical ability.

Miller is worth persisting with.
We have invested quite a bit over nearly 5 years. That dump on Fyfe was a bomb.
Can’t see us letting him go.

It appears I haven’t given “ funky “ enough credit in his improvement over the past month , my only excuse is I’ve been watching games on my phone :))

Al KPD's need time to develop to be a consistent AFL standard, particularly if they're playing mostly in the magoos. Miller has been slow and steady, but it has been an upward curve for him through his development years. He is now ready to own a senior spot if the club wants to give him that opportunity.

Any talk of letting him go is madness after the investment in him, and progression he has made. Tarrant has been good, but he has also helped Miller, and bought him more time to round out his development.

I don't think anyone inside the club is even remotely thinking of delisting or trading Miller.

Faark now the media saying we should have 5 on the interchange on the back of Miller being subbed out. With the slanderous angle stll that we abused the rules re miller/Rioli.
It's crazy town.

Reminds me of rd 1 last year when the medi sub was first introduced and Vlaustin was subbed off. We were castigated for rotting the medi sub rule….Vlaustin eventually missed what, 4 weeks but I can’t recall those bagging us apologising. People should wait and see if Miller is selected before going the crow.

Media and their anti Richmond agenda can GGF
Doesn’t mean Miller has to have long term injury to justify being subbed off
Wasnt Gibcus subbed off previous week and then was ok to play VFL

Was that the game where SIlvagni was also subbed off and played the following week? Yet no comment on SiIvagni at all.

This is like when Prestia got the 50 earlier in the year for what other teams had been doing for weeks but suddently it was a big issue.

It is our clubs business not an overrated scribe like Cleary.
Miller is progressing well and doing enough to keep a spot in the firsts and probably earned another contract

What a recovery. Named on the field ahead of Balta too.
That is because I reckon Balta will interchange with Lynch, Jack and Nank. Has been training forward and some ruck drills this week so we will see if that mirrors his roles on Sunday..

As for Miller nothing much wrong with him from what i saw at training today, was in fine fettle.

We openly rorted the rule. I like that. The AFL doesn't but they're *frowns*.

I don’t see the issue here - Cramp is a legitimate injury. Won’t keep you out the next week but it’s a legitimate injury that requires treatment during a game and those who have had it know - it can end your game fast too. I didn’t realise the sub rule meant they had to miss the next week too……..
