Miller wasn't really up to AFL standard from what I saw, but don't understand your angle with this?

Justin. Here's a refresher:
It's possible you subconsciously forgot him to prevent further trauma
One of Freos only goals not from a free kick. Umpires should have been arrested for match fixing after that game.

Considering he was considered as one of the top league mid fielders for several years by a number of people
Your opinion is more a case of the usual hawthorn little man syndrome when it comes to everything Essendon

He was a pretty solid inside mid, with average pace, average skills and ultimately paid the price for trying to be more than that.
It’s been a long time (if ever) since an indigenous footballer that made AFL level lacked any skill

He played his role and won the ball!
If Watson is classed a one of the very average players to have played the game!
Gutless snipers like hodge and plodders like Mitchell are total spuds

WOW where do I start
Mark West
Zeph Skinner
Nathan Djekurra
Brendon Stack
And that’s just a start, the bulldogs have a history of absolutely useless indigenous players.
In fact we have had 2 in our entire history that you could call good. Les Bamblett and Michael McLean

There’s nothing average about Champion 4-time Premiership players.

Sam Mitchell:

Gee whiz, I hope your 49,683 other posts are better quality than that.
If that's the case, how would you classify Liam Shiels?

Shane Crawford! Some how won a Brownlow a slow plodder, terrible disposal & realy won his own ball
**** me mate. Jobe doesn't belong anywhere near this thread, but neither does Hodge, Mitchell or Crawford. All guns.
You're not doing yourself any favours.
Ben Doolan though. Anyone?

Attempting to point that out to the hawthorns folk! Their little man syndrome runs rather deep
Old Dolan was a spud but did play 100 odd games included from memory some SOO games for the Alias
