Miller is consistent. He is experienced. He is a good player.

At this stage Miller is a perfect backup/depth forward particularly when he is surrounded by very talented but young and erratic forwards. When they lose form and confidence Miller is a perfect stopgap. In a couple of years our forwards will be both more experienced and consistent and then Miller can become a full time coach for us.

The very fact that Miller is still getting a game speaks more about the other forwards than him

well said Striped one.

The angst rises from Brads across the board ability to kick crooked,drop marks etc,making it hard for most to see his full role as an older,stronger bodied decoy/possible goal kicker.

It's just where we are right now

Post was a disgrace round 1.
As he hasnt improved on his recent showings at Coburg
Elton, you would have to be joking
Plays development squad at the weekend and you want to play him at Richmond
Huge difference between Coburg and AFL.
The development squad is worse than local footy.

lol disgrace my behind.

Sorry claw but he was disgraceful round 1. Hence, why he was rightly dropped

If you think pulling out of a contest because your about to get hit is OK then you can say Post was great

If you think dropping your head after dropping a sitter mark and then refusing to chase the oppostition because you are too busy sulking then you can say Post had a fantastic game

Sad thing was this wasn't the first time he's done those type of things and for a bloke his size he shouldn't be doing those type of things

There's an old saying "built like Tarzan plays like Jane" unfortunately that was Post in round 1
no worse than others especially vickery.
seems to me this bloke has been delisted already the way he is talked about by supporters and treated by the club.
his penance has been 10 weeks at coburg. all im saying is give him another go performance wise he can hardly do worse than blokes like vickery and miller who lets face it performance wise have been very ordinary most of the yr. and for that matter griffiths who is clearly learning the ropes and has struggled at times.

ffs drad miller i cant for the life of me see why we give him games hes not the way forward he hardly tears it up at coburg yet we continue to play bhim. development goes out the window while we chase wins.
just my opinion but we are going backwards  while we are winning. 

we play so many players who will keep us mired in mediocrity  king nahas houli jackson rance at times. edwards though hes done his job the last 5 weeks, now connors, miller for 9 games this yr.
at the same time we reward younger players games on end despite them doing little a case in point vickery if we are talking pea hearts has to be the biggest one of all at the club.

all im asking is we drop vickery and miller for a while and give blokes like post and or elto a block of games. you would think im asking for the crown jewels from the royals the way people carry on.

im sick to death of this theres no other option bull dust there are other options we just have to take them.
if your car has a flat tyre you stop and change it no matter what unless you want to destroy your tyre and rim.  well miller and  vickery are our flat tyres time to change them regardless of the options.

no, miller is the spare tyre,  metaphorically, like that dinky spare found in the boot of performance cars.

It wont get you going at full performance, but it does a job, of sorts, until you get the proper one fitted. 
“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."

Miller is consistent. He is experienced. He is a good player.

*Consistently poo. *Experienced at being poo. *He is a poo player

No disrespect. It's just the way it is. Mick Malthouse has a grandson that offers more.

Just goes to show what a dill you really are Coach Davey
I Watched Melbourne consistently for a number of years and Brad did play a lot of games at CHB
He is also highly regarded by his team mates at punt rd and by his ex team mates at Melbourne

Got a mate involved with Melbourne. Brad played no more than 30 games at CHB. LOL at 30 being a lot of footy for a bloke that's played 150 games. Any decent key forward averages more than 0.7 goals per game. Funny thing is, Brad is having his best ever season this year. This is his best ever season :lol

No wonder why you got sacked you absolute nuffer. You bag everyone but defend Miller because you know him.

I have tried being nice about this because he is a Richmond player, I even try to console myself by thinking it's ok because we are getting him on a rookie wage. But it's not OK. He is useless. He may have improved 0.0001% since leaving the Dees, but the major flaws are still there. All he does is lead and mark. And then only if it hits him on the tit. If it doesn't instant turnover. He draws the oppositions youngest or weakest defender so we get nothing there either. Absolute waste of space.

oh how the the truth must hurt some.
give me post for 5 games anyday or give elton two or three in a row just to get a feel of the big time. ffs we have a 25 yo mature recruit in derickx who is struggling at coburg but what tall wouldnt struggle at coburg. as i have said repeatedly nothing to lose we could play my granny and get better out put than vickery and miller atm.
