I personally think Miles is ahead of Prestia at the moment but i really rate Prestia. Can they both fit in the same side???

Early season I would have said no, but later in the year the game slows down with finals very contested. Yes for me

If it's a choice, easily Miles.
13 contested possies and 8 clearances tonight. I don't think Prestia would've had those numbers all year. Oh and 8 tackles.
Plus Miles actually has good disposal. Still laughing that the people on here who said Miles wasn't in our best team. He's our ****ing 3rd best midfielder on the whole list.

They played together against GWS and both played well. Not sure why they couldn't play together.

I don't know what the guy was doing languishing in the VFL. It is not like our midfield was too good for him. The thing is, he is such a hard worker too. He goes to the VFL and he gets 30+ disposals regularly in there.
It's alright though because it seems that the club realised now and are playing him.
Yes they can ! Getting to the business end & as many good footballers we can play the better

The muppets on here were saying he was too slow and the game had caught up with him.
Prestia can barely get into a jog in comparison.

Ball-winners are so important to modern day footy though and that describes Miles IMO. As long as he sticks with his limitations it is fine.

He plays off HB goals will leak as he cannot run at that level especially in finals. Also his defensive side is still questionable.
He shouldn't be played unless he's 100% BC apart from two games he's been a liability. We shouldn't be giving him 16km useless jogging roles if he's not 100%. We've got this bloke now until 2021 so we sadly now have to manage him to the finish line.
There's a 109 page merry-go-round of a thread where the debate is over whether one of them can play at all.
I think the sensible thing to have done would've been to play Miles at the start of the year and ease Prestia's body into fitness before adding him to the team.
Neither are great players, but both can play. One has been unfit, the other strangely out of favour. Hopefully we can get them both adding to our midfield for when it counts.

Lambert is a no brainer. He brings more than either of those 2 can

Miles averages 9 tackles a game, Prestia 8.
Miles averages 3.75 clearances a game, Prestia 3.4.
Miles averages 4.2 tackles a game, Prestia 3.5.
Miles averages 20 touches, Prestia 21.
Miles averages 2.5 inside 50s, Prestia 3.2.
Seem pretty much even all over. I think both should play.
Lets Cotchy and Dusty play even more on the outside.

In his tagging role I agree , but in terms of mf inside grunt work Miles had him covered.

I'd love to see all 3 in the team but with team balance in mind can they all fit? Who would go out for Prestia to come back in?

This.
I hope to god this has been a master stroke to fire up the little campaigner so he can win the Norm Smith. I'm really hoping there was method to the madness that saw Miles out of the team.
