Anthony Miles [merged]

[Yeahright]

What do we all think of Antbony Miles?

No doubt he is tough and hard and willing to take a tackle but IMO we have to find better than him in the middle. He IMO is one paced and one dimensional.

But just as important he really can only play that one position on the ground. Surely that hurts us as a side??

He by no means is one of our real concerns at this stage but I just think he makes us really predictable with our set ups.

I'd rather see Vlastuin get the opportunity to play his roll as I think he has way more weapons.

What would we get for him if we did decide to trade him?

IMO we can forget depth for a while as we need to find 22 players that can beat any side in the comp. That's why I think Vlastuin could take his spot and we could potentially trade him for a player we need in another position. And there is a few....

Not sure him being one dimensional is too bad as long as he continually does well in that role. Someone has to go in hard and get the stuffing thing and he's the best at it ATM (well apart from Martin and possibly Cotchin). Also think he can sneak forward a little. Not a conventional small forward but has a couple of little tricks

It's that time of the year again with the "rumours". From a few days ago:

"Add Miles to Conca and Lennon; looking for a trade to his third club. Management privately fuming he was dropped twice in 2016 #AFLTrades"

Expendable only if we can draft/trade in another inside mid or two.

Again?

Dunno about you but to me it looks like Dimma's lost a few of the players this year

Again what? Do you consider him untradable?

Only players I would never trade are Jack, Rance and Dusty.

Michael Barlow is open to a move to Vic...

Heard he never quite got over Halfstep not playing him until round 11 back in 2014.....

If you read a few posts back, I actually question Miles worth.
I meant by saying "again" is we traded in 2 inside mids last off season while having 2 very good players capable of doing this roll already on our list in Martin and Vlastuin.
I personally would move Miles on as I think he is slow and doesn't really give enough as a mid whether it be an inside or outside mid.
And I don't think you can pay anywhere else.
