Then why has Miller kicked 4 times as many goals as Vickery has?

Vickery after 4 weeks hasnt been able to get near the ball.
You should start going to games and having a good look.
Miller gets another week, Vickery GONE !

that argument would only be valid if vickery spent 3/4 of his game time in the ruck
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

LOL = if i am not mistaken we will be playing a side with the three most mobile rucks in the league - maybe not the right time to drop a mobile ruckman - let Ty tag Natunui

Derrix or Griff played well in the 2's and we are playing on the smaller Ethiad - a chance

Um, because he's played 6 times as many games?
I hope your tongue is in your cheek there. Vickery averages a goal per game, something Miller can only dream of.
Having said that if Vickery continues this form, he'll end up with the same crappy games/goals ratio that Miller has. I'm quite concerned for the big fella, it's gonna be even harder for him to snap out of this poor form with a bung shoulder

And, despite Vickery's awful form, if it comes down to it he gets a game in front of Miller, not just because he can ruck, but also in the grander scheme is a much bigger investment being a first round. Miller will never ever be a guy that can take a game by the scruff and win it for you, whereas Vickery might be that guy.

I am talking about this season you stuffing genius. Career stats mean nothing. We're talking about now.

So you think Miller has played close to 300 games?

So we need to continue gifting games to players when they are not deserved then  :-\ ;D

Didn't think we gifted games anymore

What's interesting is that we have used the least amount of players so far .25
How on earth can Vickery even be considered this week is beyond belief
That's why the RFC are where they are
Vickery has played 4 games for nothing
Even on pre season form he got a game in Round 1 on last year
RFC need to get tough

I suppose in a way it comes down to this....

Do you want to win? If you do then you play the players who given and shown something in the first 4 games. If the result isn't that important then you keep giving games to blokes based on "potential" and hope they come good.

My personal view is pretty simple! Ty Vickery is horribly out of form, is playing with no confidence and as a result is unfortunately almost non-competitive. This is not good for the RFC or for Ty Vickery to be honest.

Reiwoldt is also horribly out of form but at least he is at times getting his hands on the ball. Miller wasn't great on Sunday but from where i was sitting he was the best of the 3 tall forwards. 

IMV it is in Ty's best interests to go back to Coburg and just play some footy, get his hands on the ball, take some grabs, get some run in his legs and some confidence back...

Just my take  :thumbsup
