No surprise that reason we got 3 goals up in the 3rd coincided when young Ben went in the ruck

Put Nank to shame with he centre ruck work

Spent far too much time on the pine

A very good young footballer is Ben Miller

One of the positives of 2022

46. Ben Miller

Played mainly in defence but also had stints in the ruck. Overall limited time on the ground, but had 14 hit-outs and three contested marks.

Foxsports rating: 5

Reckon if they have the will we have found our second ruck third tall fwd.
Looks good in the ruck and has some real good attributes to play the third tall fwd role. Just needs to keep on getting better and hopefully gets real good in one of the roles.

Agree claw. As I said in the nankervis thread, barring one or two ruckman in the league, ruck is the most overrated position in the team. Imo Miller has shown he is more than capable of playing that second ruck role and provides great versatility to play back/forward depending on what each game dictates.

Yes Andy. Yes!

Honestly...wing.

Tall, can mark, deceptively fast.

Can swing back or forward.

Ruck backup.

If he has some development in him he could be a Kmart Blicavs sort.
