Player Watch #27: Miller Bergman - BFNAAK - Extends to end of 2025 - returns to the team against the Eagles

[Whereitallbegan]

I noticed that wave off during the game. Sub 5 games directing traffic out there whilst sprinting full tilt, you love to see it. Hopefully this kid plays 200 games.

Not his thread, I know, but also important to note, the last link in that chain about to receive off Drury, was Perez, who along with Miller, started that passage of play.
It emphasises, that we do have players other than Hall, that can run and carry off half back, they just have to become accustomed and encouraged to do so.

Perez and Goater running out of the backline in the last game last year looked significant;y better than Hall and anyone doing the same thing.

He's not going anywhere for a while this one.

 

[Ligma]

I’m putting it out there … ain’t gonna make it. Waste of a pick

Lol

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Just a plain reliable footballer that rarely wastes it, has some toe, competes hard and defends well, in spite of how skinny he is.

 

[Mute Point]

Excited to see him after another 2 pre seasons of fitness, strength & game time. Along with the same for Goater it's promising

 

[hilly]

I really don’t know why we bothered trading down & give away our 3rd rounder for next year ?’
For Bergman & Curtis ?! GGF north

Cool

When you look at him you think - geez the boy's gonna get killed out there towing around those 70 kegs of his.

But he's got a defiance about him. Looks brave too.

A few of those types have premiership medallions.

Yep … prob got that one wrong
Love those 2 guys

 

[RossHenshaw]

Lol

Oh is that what we are doing is it ?
I’m sure I’m not the only one who has been proven to get a couple wrong here & there .
I will tell u something..
At least I’ve got the balls to put my thoughts out there ,& I reckon I’ve got a few more right than wrong

 

[Whereitallbegan]

The type of player to be named in the best players of multiple premiership sides, for you only to scratch your head and ask: “did he actually play”. The ultimate quiet achiever!

You can just tell that with more experience, confidence and size that these sorts of plays will be bobbing up more and more.

He is so smart and reliable. He is a set and forget player for our list. I am confident that one of those HB roles is his. He just needs the games pumped into him.

Well at the moment, his reliability and composure is sticking out like dog’s balls.

This is so true. I still find myself at games applauding a regulation kick and mark.

Yep is Mr cool and honest as they come. Can’t really remember any howlers that he has done and that’s saying a lot from a guy so young.

 

[Souup]

I felt like he would make it after he was very good in one of the games during the preseason - can't remember which one but his composure, skills and positioning stood out.

He'll be our Corey Enright

Richmond? i think it was

 

[Ball Dont Lie]

Am I the only one who thinks he is very similar to a certain junk yard dog that used to play for us?

In body size and courage but that’s about it. Miller has a lot more natural skill.

Visually, absolutely, but he’s not the bash and crash of Laidley. I swear Miller would struggle to get his heart rate into 3 figures, looks like the iceman out there.

 

[Horace]

We should aim to reunite the brothers. Miles is a very nice footballer. He was pick 14 in the 2019 Draft. If Port finish in the top 4, perhaps we can trade our pick we got from them in the JHF trade.

Port Adelaide provides update on Bergman contract talks

Corey Enright? That’s a stretch. Solid start to his career no doubt, but Enright was a star of the comp. Easy to throw out comparisons

I'm not saying he's Corey Enright right now, but stylistically and in terms of potential I could see him having a similar career.

Solid, reliable, medium sized defender who you can rely on getting the job done week in week out.
