We've Jay Schulzed this guy enough. Not really in favour of moving him around at the risk of damaging his confidence.

Pick 63, 2017 Ben Miller - Welcome to Tigerland.

Agree. Was good on Membrey, then when he had to go to King, he quieted him down after he got off the leash on Young.
Another reasonably good game from Ben. Did what was asked of him and showed he can keep gorilla's quiet today so I don't understand why he was pulled off King and replaced with Young.
Time we had a Ben Bandwagon!

That coupled with the fact that Balta is a brilliant player and will continue to serve us well while playing forward.
Agree he had a good game, had Membrey in his pocket. I have no concerns with this guy, have more concerns over Young personally.
Not many can play well at both ends of the ground and ruck well. Balta can
I have said before he is Balta-esque. When he puts his ass into it he really looks a player.
Not sure what the surprise is with Miller. He held his own as a KPD in 2021 before Dimma tried to turn him into a KFP/Ruck. He's just picking up where he left off in 2021.
I thought Minson was a little down on his usual brilliant best. All numbers down and a little bit of a fumble once.
That said he looks miles better when he plays higher. The bloke is a CHB who can use.

Why would they pay holding frees? I thought they abolished that rule, if I see 30 seconds of any game without a player holding another player who is not in possession of the ball I figure play must have stopped.
Back on topic - Miller has taken great strides and is looking like a decent footballer and a good defender. He has been unconvincing for years and it is great to see the improvement. FFS don't move him around the ground, it is finally working for him.

Couldn’t have expected anymore from Big Ben. In fact it is more than I expected
Good on him.
Assuming Gibbo comes back ok I can see Miller staying in the team and playing the Astbury role. Maybe he isn’t as good as DTLD but he is doing a good impression of him atm.

Miller has a 1v1% loss of 16.7. 7th in the comp for those with more than 10 1v1's.
Was a bit surprised to be honest that Yze preferred Gibcus over Miller in the early rounds. Gibcus will be a good player I'm sure, but he's still a skinny kid who missed an entire year injured. Would have made more sense to play Miller and Young and ease Gibcus back into the side without the pressure of playing on the likes of King and McKay straight away which could well have led to his ACL.
Whilst i get the sentiment Harry I don't think him coming back straight away had anything to do with his ACL injury. He flew for the ball and landed badly. Could have happened in any game at any time.
