Dropping him was the best thing for him. Gave him a chance to take a slight load off, get his head right and get his confidence back.

^^^ Rubbish, how could you possibly come to that conclusion. Well ok, based on that crap analysis we should drop B Ellis, Grigg, C Ellis, and Vickery and maybe some others. They will all come back in Brownlow form..

Whoa, can't wait to get Houli back, he will poll 3 votes a game for the rest of the season... :whistle :whistle

Unreal!!

Well looks like we need to drop 3/4 of the team then for 1 game... Can't believe that.

For one game, dropping a player for one game, clears his head and he comes back in that form? Nothing else was wrong, just needed his head cleared.....please.... :help

We need to rotate a few more through this system..

 :lol surely even you can see how much better he is playing after his short stint in the VFL but then again. It won't work for every player but it obviously did for Miles and as WP said, Miles agrees. Don't we base all our opinions on what a player says?

Tell me then WAT, what was the catalyst for his change in form?

Maybe he had a poo, or a banana sandwich, or a huge glass of HTFU......could have been anything, could have had a shag.......

BUt to say dropping him for 1 game was the "catalyst"........ :help.....just...... :help

But I suppose if "WP said"... :lol :lol :lol :lol

Was Miles carrying an injury that was preventing him from playing at his best?. There was some talk at the time that he was. Furthermore Miles was not the only player who was down in form at the time. Others should have been dropped before him. Miles is carrying the party line and therefore caution should prevail against placing too much emphasis on what he says. I have enormous respect for Miles. He is a very courageous and talented player and I think why he is playing well has little to do with the decision to drop him but more to do with his character.

Yes the injury was what I thought, but it must have been a brain injury that was fixed in one game in the VFL... :snidegrin

A little, it wasn't so much the injury inhibiting him but more the way he was handling it and therefore lost confidence. As I said, he got to play in the VFL and it allowed him to not only get confidence, but also take a slight load off and recover somewhat without having to miss a game as resting him wasn't going to help his form or even his injury. Agree the team lifting would also have helped him but being in the middle he could have still had an influence with clearances and tackling no matter how poor his team mates were playing. Won't question his character either but even the best can benefit from a step down and he certainly did

Do you ignore everything that is said and just pick the 1 or 2 thinks that suits you so you can continually make snide pot shots?
