Interesting to find Jermaine Miller is a ridgey didge Crows NGA according to Draft journalist Dan Batten, Eddie Betts and Graham Johncock's nephew.
Lively small forward Jermaine Miller, tied to Adelaide’s NGA, turned it on with four first-half goals for South Australia in their win over Vic Metro, one of those a great finish at speed from 40 metres on the run.

Miller has strong links to the Crows as the nephew of Adelaide and Carlton legend Eddie Betts and 227-game Crow Graham Johncock.
SA U16 Team defeat Victoria Metro - SANFL

By ZAC MILBANK
A sensational seven-goal second term catapulted South Australia to a comfortable 32-point win against Victoria Metro in Game 2 of the Marsh AFL U16 National Championships on the Gold Coast.
Coming off a hard-fought 10-point win against Western Australia in Game 1 at Thebarton, the Croweaters displayed supreme efficiency with ball in hand as they handled the slippery conditions far better than their opponents.
Having kept the Big V to just five behinds in the opening term, Heath Younie’s charges started brightly to lead by 14 points at the opening change.
Crafty SA goalsneak Jermaine Miller was at the coalface of his team’s match-winning surge, booting the third goal of the first term before setting up teammate Memphis Webb for the opening major of the second stanza.
Miller, from Central District, then exploded to boot three of SA’s next five goals in succession, including a classy finish on the run after dodging around his opponent from 40m.
Hard-running Taj Garrett kicked the Croweaters’ only goal of the third term on the run from 25m as Victoria Metro looked to respond in the second half.
But some mature slow play to retain possession and take the sting out of the opposition’s charge in the fourth term ensured the margin would remain beyond five goals, as tall forward Ryan Davies nailed his set shot from 30m.
Miller finished with four majors while Kangaroo Island product Cain Florance hit the scoreboard with three.
SA joint vice-captain Dougie Cochrane was named by the coaching staff as the Croweaters’ best performer, with consistent midfielder Archie Van Dyk and captain Kodah Edwards also rated highly.
SA will now prepare for its final contest of the tournament as it looks to remain undefeated with three victories in succession to give itself a chance of claiming the championship.
Game 3 is on Friday, against Victoria Country at Southport’s Fankhauser Reserve, from 11.15am SA time.

Ben cousins certainly was
How many years ago was Raynor pick one?
As long as he doesn’t take 7 years to hit his peak (I don’t think Lalor would take that long FWIW, but definitely longer than Draper/Jagga, for instance)
He’s taken a while to get there (drafted 2017!). But argue with what he did tonight
Is Kodah Edwards a son of Tyson Edwards?Anyone mentioned the U16 Medallist?

I disagree.
No doubt re: his physique, but his proneness to injury this year gives me slight concern re: whether he'll take time to adjust to AFL-level training regimes. Could just be a lack of luck, though
Unlike the other 2 he's much more than a midfielder, he'll no doubt play his early footy more forward than midfield...he's a weapon and has far more penetration with his kick as well.
Agree with that also, but I'm talking about the time he'll take to move into the midfield
How does that tell you that?
