Dimmer said "we're lucky to have him at the club".
Truth is, we're lucky Dimmer was forced to play the guy through other's injuries and poor form
Wrong , we were putting him the through the necessary hoops at the Punt rd finishing school to have him cherry ripe for his debut. Looks to me it worked to a tee
Of course, it was all part of a greater plan to promote Orren, and watch what a mistake giving up pick 28 for Hampson was adding to a wretched first half of the year where despite our galling losses where we were only selecting available players from a pool of 25 despite some of the players obvious deficiencies in ability and form,playing static Danny Frawley type footy that by round 9 Miles would be ready to be promoted despite 30 possies a game in the ressies only to be selected for his debut in round 12 which would coincide a few weeks later to the club embarking on a 6 game winning run, generating the momentum of a runaway freight train and only regaining slight respect from the fan base after beating Essendon that despite the fact that the club may still win their last three games their attempt to make the finals may still be an exercise of futility.
If only I had seen this in May I wouldn't have felt so gutted after we lost to the Suns, Bulldogs, Pies, Hawthorn, Geelong, Melbourne, Essendon, North, Freo and Sydney. What a masterstroke had all of us fooled.
Another Dimma, Blair and RFC masterstroke. 9th with a bullet.
Yep the RFC finishing factory working at its procrastinating best.
