Bit early to be poppin the old cork el bucko
You seem content to be on the wrong side of history when he's a Brownlow & Dusty Medal winning triple premiership captain.

It's fine I won't hold it against you*



*too much
 
Bit of a light frame is my only concern but I'm sure he'll give himself every chance
Yeah but he ain’t playing key position

Will be third man up, even the spare running around using his pace and skills

Think he’s a great bet for rising star

I will gladly take that allllllll day
 
Don't really understand the hate directed at Miller. He didn't choose the number.

Let him at least try and live up to it before completely writing him off.
Weird behavior.

I didn’t watch the B&F count closely, but does anyone know where Miller was positioned at the mid-point of the year? He was excellent in the first half of the year and showed what he’s capable of, and I’d be surprised if he wasn’t top-5 midway through the season.

With some more development and his athletic traits and size he could easily be a staple of our backline for another 7-years, so I don’t understand why there’s so much negativity. We need him to step up given the injury concerns with Gibcus and Young and Trainor and Blight being raw and unknown quantities.

So who gets a debut game early?
Smillie possibly rnd1 then who? Obviously injury dependent but my next two:
Fawcett looks physically AFL ready, good chance early
Trainor’s versatility gives him a better chance than some but I think will play several VFL first
Others:
Lalor if as a sub might get an early game but full game much later
Alger might sneak a game before the KPFs, competing with JuddyC and Steely, and MRJ and Mansell as incumbents
Faull and Armstrong? Maybe Faull a bit more developed, but I reckon Gray if fit could debut before them. Bauer with a few games under his belt probably ahead of them all atm. Competition will be 🔥
Sims if we have ruck injuries, Hotton mid to late season. Snack Pack and Tallest Man sorry!

Competition for spots, I like it!
 
More like how to deal with arm chopping.

Lynch is going to be solid gold teaching these young blokes
Absolutely, Lynch was teaching him where to put his arms to mark the ball. more positioned in front and above the face and not marking the ball directly over the head. arms in front of head and out stretched is way harder to spoil

It’s hard to say with the talls

We played Gibcus year one round 1 and he was still very undersized so it will be interesting

That’s right, regardless of how many games he plays. Showing leadership to the future kids will be massive.

He's not a natural contested mark, but he also doesn't usually contest in packs, he looks for the crumb. He does have good hands and takes decent marks on a lead. Took a nice little one hander in the vid.
Learning from the best how to position his body and better use his size, he might gain some confidence going for marks. Could become useful high mark and a really difficult matchup, a multi threat up forward. Possibly why he's working with Lunch.

Agree, He and Lalor could be a deadly mid fwd rotation duo purely because of their sizes

They will need to have a tall defender drop onto them if they become dangerous instead of the mid size/ small defenders that tend to pick up thr resting mids

Lalor if as a sub might get an early game
lalor debuting as a sub.....

If we debut our number 1 pick as a sub I'll spew up.
