Title: It's Time to Go.........Brad.
Post by: Loui Tufga on May 19, 2012, 11:42:08 PM
This is Big Brother......

Brad, the house does not accept not making the distance from 40 out! Nor does it accept pee poor effort around the ground and in front of goal. It has been a tough decision for the house to make, it came down to either Mr Tigra or you but unfortunately after tonight you have made the decision for us. Unfortunately mate you will not make the heights of Regi or Ben so where calling it here and now, you have officially been turkey slapped..........bring in anyone but this ***********.

yes l agree Miller has played his last game for RFC.
I seen it too many times now where he struggles to make the distance of 40m.
Its time to play Jayden Post for the remainder of the season regardless.

sad but true..reason we have Lost these close games, is we are carrying half a dorward line, brad has been admirable early on but last few weeks not great...last night dropping simple marks, squandering bread and butter shots on goal...we have at least 6 players that could be given a go in his spot

griff
Post...likely to take grimes spot, possibly not with mcguane a chance there
Elton..
Derickx
Bo Hanlon
Astbury
Gus
browne

lets do it

Willy, how they hangin bruz? After last night maybe you can see why some of us are bloody frustrated with his attitude towards the game. and I am one of the blokes that reckons he's damn near the best forward going around when switched on.
I got no idea who we're playing next week but it will be interesting to see how Jack and Miller go. On form both deserves the ass but Post (who kicked 5 in a stuffing quarter last week) was played down back again today apparently. stuffing good work whoever is behind that move.

Miller looked worse because he took the 2nd best backman. Add Vickery to the mix and he is able to fufil his role well (ie leading up the ground to act as a link man and/or clear space behind in the forward line. I wish we had someone such as Griffiths or Elton who was ready to step into the role because both can kick 50m+. I think the plan was for Miller to well and truly have moved aside by now but his form to date and, more importantly, the lack of pressure from our young tall forwards have held that off.

He won't be moved aside until  -
1) Someone is performing better than he is for Coburg
2) He fails over multiple weeks with Vickery in the team

Knee jerk decision are never sensible  :-X Our club administration has moved beyond that.

Post by: WilliamPowell on May 20, 2012, 08:12:43 PM
Have to say based on what I saw today at the Whitten Oval we don't have anyone who deserves or warrants Miller spot.

Is that Miller's fault? No it just shows our lack of depth in the key forward dept right now.

The young blokes are not ready and throw them in there now and you'll the usual suspects on this forum bag the crap out of them  ;D

Can't keep blokes in the side when they don't produce. Bring in the Postman as a forward

the best way to sum miller up is servicable. sheesh we got a mature player who could just perhaps do a role for us and he has done that role.

we all knew and know exactly what we got when we took him.hes not the future we know that. but of the three tall forwards we have played this yr hes been the best of them i say that acknowledging that he doesnt have to compete against 2 or three players like riewoldt is being asked to.

just my opinion but one way or the other we have to bite the bullit and try a different option up forward weather that means miller getting chopped or jack sent back to coburg to find form i dont care we cant continue down the current path. i also acknowledge we have had a prick of a run with our possible replacement with both griffiths and astbury having had more than their fair share of injuries. and vickery and derickx horribkly out of form. the one i would like to give a game to is elton even if it only amounts to us getting a game into him.

sheesh we desperately need a competetive ruck/forward option and a second tall forward option. just how much better will we be if we actually address our short comings. trouble is addressing those short comings is still more about the future  than now but we must address it.
Title: Re: It's Time to Go.........Brad.
Post by: 10 FLAGS on May 20, 2012, 08:49:17 PM
Maybe play miller deep in the forward and move jack to centre half forward. Actually I would just drop Miller now and bring in Griff and see how he goes at least you know if he has a shot from 50 he will make the distance.

That's why I think it's important at times to bypass the coburg route and place a big bodied kpp straight into the seniors where he can learn alot quicker and with good players around him can help and speed up his development. If he's got the talent let's harness it because it's not working at coburg.
There's been too many great examples of this by clubs that have got big bodied kpp straight into the seniors to teach them quicker.
I get frustrated by Millers inclusion because in 1-2 years he's gone and we've got a young player that's 1-2 years behind in development. Having Griff at coburg may even ruin his development.

We're really missing Vickery. We need another tall target who is competing who can take the pressure off Jack and Miller. Miller shouldn't be anything other than a foil for the other two and just fulfill his role as a diversion/space creator/link man. Once Elton can learn this role and start clunks a few for the VFL then he will come in.
