How was his actual defending though - you know his primary role?nI mean compared to Young he looked like Rance ...but still.......
I thought he was serviceable and still was able to remain calm amidst the chaos of having the ball coming inside the defensive 50 especially in the third qtr when it came in 19 times compared to our 3.
We were unable to take territory in the second half, only having 34% of this time spent in our forward half, as well as having 26 fewer inside 50s.
On top of this he had 7 interceptions.
If there is no pressure up the field on the ball carrier and the opposition is just allowed to send the ball in lace out to their forwards, even the greatest defenders and defensive structures will struggle to stop it (ie. 2018 prelim final)
Without him down there it would have been massively worse than it was.
Miller doesn't panic and he makes good decisions majority of the time which is great because his skills are very good.
