How good is this guy, what a pick up, has turned our midfield around and will only get better from here.

Thing I liked most, he had a bad week last week but bounced right back this week.
Going to be a handy addition for many years I feel.

Former Giant gets Miles in the legs

Since coming into Richmond's senior side in round 11, Anthony Miles has been impressive, playing every game. The former Giant has averaged 24 disposals and six clearances per game and has become a crucial cog in the Tigers' midfield in the second half of the season. Last week against his former side Miles had his most disappointing game for the season. After barely touching it in the first half he was sent to tag Giants captain Callan Ward and finished with just 12 disposals. After a quiet word from coach Damien Hardwick during the week, Miles set his sights on rebounding against the Bombers, and he did just that. The midfielder was prolific in the first quarter racking up 14 disposals. Despite his impact, the Bombers left him unchecked for most of the game. The 22-year-old finished with 28 touches and a game-high seven clearances to take out best-on-ground honours.

Fox Footy highlighted that Miles is 2nd in the AFL for clearances in the past 5 weeks. Single handedly turned us from the 7th best clearance side to the top side in the last 5 weeks and also from the 6th best contested possession side to the top side as well.

this is what I was looking to see from him - whether or not he could get back to his high standard and he did it. going to be a 200 game player IMHO.

Just keeps getting up, butters up, follows up, chases his ball just motors on.

One stage in the third got the ball out from the centre bounce missed the target but scrambled to tackle the Essendon bloke to keep the ball in there. Huge effort.

[YellowandBlackBlood]

Just a good honest footballer. Need more like that.

Miles is one of if not the biggest reason we have turned it around...

Miles is one of if not the biggest reason we have turned it around...

Takes a huge pressure of the midfield because he wins his own ball.
