Kicked 10 goals in his last VFL game last year
We wouldnt have a player who would kick 10 in a season at Coburg. ::)

Umm Schulz did & has been kicking bags for Port Power yet it never stopped you poobagging him.

Beat me to it. Schulz kicked 10 in a VFL game a few years back. Get your facts right Jack  ;D

Miller ;D

Effing great.  :banghead

What's wrong with playing post at FF?

One of our few good players against Adelaide.

Not happy  >:(

Perhaps he is lazy and doesnt work hard enough to satisfy the coaching staff?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Last year we had the same young KPs playing without an experienced big body down there and it didn't worry the coaches
This year those young KPs are all 12mths older and one is the Coleman medalist and now we need an old horse as back up?

Hope he kicks 5 and tears the Blues a new one  :shh

Miller's role is to step up when the younger forwards are not able to, for whatever reason. You don't play a kid who is recovering from injury or lacking match fitness /confidence in Round 1 when you have another option on your list who is better suited (be that option a mature aged rookie or otherwise).  ;)

Polak last year.
Promoted before round 1, only played 3 games.
It's 50 of one and half a dozen of the other - Don Scott

Polak was a fragile 25yr old that had played 2 games of AFL in 18 months and was still recovering from brain damage  ::)

but I DO NOT agree with him being elevated off the rookie list for the entire season. They are valuable games that should be going to our young forwards.

Who said he's going to be there the entire season
If he's promoted prior to the season to replace our lack of veterans then he is on the list for the entire season
Just like Polak & Roberts were last year

On the other hand, if he plays like he usually does he'll help the Blues tear us a new(er) one...

If Miller plays it tells us that our young talls are either not developing or they're just not good enough.

It doesn't tell us either of those things. Griffiths is unable to play as he is injured. Post doesn't have the stamina to run out a full game, Miller does. When both Griff and Post are up and about, Miller will be kicking his goals at Coburg.  ;D

Miller admitted on the wireless this morning that the reason he has been promoted to the senior list is because of Griffiths not being ready for another 5-6 weeks. He said that if Griff had been ready it was unlikely he would have been promoted

The only thing that matters to me is he is one of us now and should get all our support! I hope he does play against the Blues and plays well. We need all the help we can get!
People will forget pretty quickly.
Good luck to the bloke....
