I don't see that Miller has any runs on the board. Reading this it sounds like Miller is an ageing champion with enough smarts to still contribute, when in reality he is a below average AFL player who was delisted by a poor side and has a career record of having little or no influence on games.

With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

our fwd line for the most part functioned better when Miller played last season. Hopefully we wont need him much this season

what miller does is set an example. if the younger talls follow his example their extra natural ability will come to the fore. If they cant or wont, then they were never going to be the answer anyway.

a number of times i have read his name mentioned in relation to the improvement we saw in TV this year, so as rookie he has paid his way.

He may not be part of the future, but he is playing a part in shaping it.

I agree tony and al - at the moment we have a better chance at winning a game with Miller in the side than with one of the younger up and coming forwards. If we're discussing who is better to play with the future in mind then that's a whole other discussion but given what Dimma has said this preseason, expect to see Miller in the side at the start of this year....
