Pick 63, 2017 Ben Miller - Welcome to Tigerland.

[Tony Braxton-Hicks]

Purely belief and aggressiveness.

Aggression has been lacking but belief is hard to attain when you start during a COVID-cancelled VFL season then get shifted around and not given continuity in his ONLY position.

Is Young a no brainer to come straight back in?

I dont think he has put the runs on the board at this stage of his career.

Miller playing on Amarti this week would be a good match up.

Young should come straight back in were desperate for tall backs
If Miller takes Amartey who takes 197cm McLean? That should be Young

Yeah - Amarty’s been good this season, but Miller might actually match up pretty well on him….especially after doing well on big Charlie, as he’s got the athleticism to go with Amarti and hopefully now a bit of confidence

 

[BrisTiger24]

Always played his best footy as a back and this week was no different. Competed well against Dixon. He can kick the ball well too but we didn't really see that yesterday

 

[Little Ziggyadee]

He looks like he can't hurt the opposition.
He will get told off.
He is soo vanilla it's hard to watch.
He couldve put John Butcher part 2 into epworty with a spoil but just backed off and allowed him to take the easiest mark.
Get rid of him.

Bad choice of words, or was it intentional Ziggs?

 

[DavidSSS]

He's worth persisting with, needs the continuity in defence, no throwing him around the ground. If he can succeed as a defender nullifying the forwards he has the tools to progress to more intercept marking. I hope they are building him up at the moment, did fine on Dixon and clearly needs a confidence boost. In the absence of Gibcus this is his chance.

Seen a couple of false dawns with Miller, but Yze has shown so far that he’s willing to give a player a chance to play in a spot.

You'd get rid of Jesus because he turned the water into wine with 11% alcohol not 14.5% Zips.
We need to find people who can break even on a position and some who can win a position. I couldn't care less if he was a 4L tub of Bulla or a scoop of Berthillon.
One game won't make a career, but at least it's a start.

 

[momentai]

Expect him to play a better role with Broad back at HB who is very good at taking up space to help block a leading opponent.

 

[turk-d-tiger]

This bloke just needs to be given a position and not moved

Richmond has failed Miller more than Miller has failed

Spot on. Hopefully he’ll be encouraged to mark the ball as well as spoil. That’s the next step.

His closing speed to get to contests, spoiling & kicking were all good - looked like he was playing within his limitations plus keeping it simple.

He’s always been a player with potential - just needs a specific backline role and belief.

 

[Mr Brightside]

Very good game from Ben and I’m a critic

 

[UKTiger]

Overall looking much more assured today and l thought l saw a bit of mongrel at times. He deserves his place in the firsts

 

[spook]

Attaboy Ben. Plays the rest of the year (not that we have many alternatives but he's been good).

 

[Little Ziggyadee]

Not strong enough in the contest.
He multiple opportunities to destroy Aamarty.
When he slipped over I wasn't happy

 

[Carter]

Two-grabs regulation marks.

It’s a belief thing. You belong out there Ben, so act like it!

Still really liked his game. Persist and play him for the year.

 

[Scoop]

Almost playing with a sense of calm.

Halving contests, starting to push the other way.

Building.

Agree, he’s definitely building.

 

[tigerman]

I like it when Funky has got the ball in hand, he uses it so well, as does Tigga, Brown and Shorty.

It was really noticeable today. Played a smart, composed game against a dangerous forward line.

Leave him back, play Gibcus forward next year.
