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

[shintemaster]

He is a faster Sam Wright. Very clean today. Another that needs a full preseason or two.

21 disposals today.

A couple of pre seasons but I think next year he should be closer to playing the majority in the AFL. Confident there is a good solid senior player there based on career to date.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Faster Sam Wright. Perfect for the modern game.

 

[RHLK]

Went under the comms radar today but thought he played his part perfectly. So cool under pressure, with two footed disposal.

 

[Eggs11]

We’ve got one here folks.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

We’ve got one here folks.

A plain reliable modern hb.

 

[Dingster]

Beautiful kick. Another pre season into him will be invaluable.

 

[CBSlogger]

I trust him with ball in hand.

 

[Eggs11]

A plain reliable modern hb.

His footskills are better than plain reliable.

 

[zoomba23]

Moved faster today. Can kick on both feet. And can hit a pinpoint target. Yes please

 

[hotchilli]

He's one who just needs to get more involved more often which will hopefully come with another preseason.

 

[FootySmartSimpson]

A plain reliable modern hb.

But smart. Very footy smart.

 

[tazaa]

Much better at AFL level than VFL level
Should be a lock in the back half once he puts on some size too

 

[R00StaR]

Faster Sam Wright. Perfect for the modern game.

He reminds me of the JYD

Built like a rake but isn’t scared of body contact.
Is a footballer.

I'd be scared of body contact if I were him. We've all heard of the kicked a goal with your first kick club, well I think Miller might be the only member of the "did your shoulder with your first kick" club. Rough intro to the game. It's a credit to him the way he's come back from it.

 

[Roo Beauty]

Just finished watching his package from the game.

His kicking is ****ing sublime. Off both feet.

We’ve found one of Clarko’s D50 ball users for the next 15 years.

 

[Billy Not Really]

This is exactly the kind of player you need in a premiership team.

 

[Krakoueraddict]

Sheezel and Bergman hitting 90% of targets out of the back line plus Goater having a run and a bounce and hoofing it 55m is going to do wonders for our D50 exits.

 

[Disco Dew]

The Bergman Cometh!

Has probably only made 3 mistakes all year. Composure to the max.

 

[Makeshift Park]

Got the feeling we’re only just seeing the tip of the Bergman

 

[Devil Fish]

Would be among the first 5-6 names on the team sheet every week now.

Agree. Another piece of the puzzle locked in for the next decade.
Just needs to get a couple of cheesecakes into him over summer.

 

[Del191229]

Our recruiters cop a lot of shit on here, but they got this one right. Paul Curtis too.

 

[SunnyBoner]

He reminds me of the JYD

100% agree.
