Well, the time has come for Harry M. Miller to perform. The next few months will be some of the most critical in years for the RFC. Given his role as Director of Football, the club’s performance over the trading/draft period and how we begin to re-engineer this abysmal list will be fairly and squarely his responsibility.
I am worried. To date, this bloke has:
a) been involved in the recruitment of out and out hacks in the names of Pickering, Fleming and Nicholls
b) within 5 minutes of being at the club outrageously suggested that RFC supporters have no commitment to the club
c) riled Scumwood and Melthouse before the first game of the season with the suggestion that they don’t show us any respect (yeah, like we’ve really earned it !)
d) removed the termination clause from the contract of an out and out dud of a coach
e) proceeded to then publicly endorse this out and out dud of a coach at a time when we are getting pounded week in and week out and getting worse by the moment
f) suggested all of a sudden that our list isn’t all that good and we lack depth as well (like, gee thousands of supporters haven’t been screaming THAT for 10 years ? !)
g) suggested that Splud Frawley has had nothing to do with the current status of the playing list (hah hah hah…oh geez…)
h) said we need to have a cleanout of players…..
i) said it’s its not possible to have a complete cleanout of players…
j) said we will be aggressive during the trade period…..
k) said we will try to attract a big name player
l) said we will get recycled players…
m) inferred that nobody will want to trade for many of our current players…
n) on 927, endorsed Greg Beckwit - the worst Recruiting Manager in the history of the AFL.
And I’m sure others could add to this list of blunderous actions and statements……
In my mind he’s got about one thing right and that was securing Kane Johnson.
I’ll give Miller until the end of the Pre-Season draft to prove his worth. But I fear he is the overrated dud that the Kangaroos people have been saying that he is for the last few years.
Time to stand up Harry M. !
Mistakes. Excuses. Forever !
