Pick 63, 2017 Ben Miller - Welcome to Tigerland.

[Quickdraw]

Congrats Big Ben. Go well big fella.

 

[Willo]

Well done to get a gig.
He must be nearly the oldest player to debut. How old is Ben?, he must be closing in on 35 years old. Been around longer than Giuseppe the bootstudder

 

[UKTiger]

After what seems like forever, at last Ben has a chance on the big stage. Looking forward to his debut and hopefully the start of his career at the Tigers. Could well be Dave's replacement

 

[waiting]

Good luck Ben.
Finally.
Will be watching with interest how he goes.

 

[No 4]

Congrats Ben ...... have a dip

Yes! play your heart out and take this opportunity to prove yourself.

 

[zippadeee]

Plays on Saturday and could possibly be delisted on Monday.
That's how important this is, he shows something the club might keep him, shows nothing see ya

Strangely, it somehow feels that way. The interview with Dimma sounded like one of many I went through with job interviews. All good words only to hear later that I was unsuccessful. Just didn't look as convincing as other players had with Dimma. Interesting to see what comes out of this.

Interesting times.

Would have been funny if Miller turned to Dimma and said “ what’s happened, have you run out of players?”

Nah thats Biggie or Mate

 

[Tenacious Tiges]

Won’t be an easy game to show your wares with 9 changes and a definite deflated feeling at the club.
It will not be fair on the lad if this is his one and only chance. I hope he does ok and gets another year with opportunities to show his best.

Pickett has him covered for oldest debut

 

[5SKULL5]

Good luck Ben. Play your role, take the pointers from Dave, Dylan and Nick, who I'm sure will look after you.

 

[spook]

Interesting times.

Well, we have seemed cursed this year.

 

[Tigers2011]

If he can become a player - at his size, he fills a massive (no pun intended) hole in our team next year. He can take the big ugly forwards at let Balta be Balta.

It's for that reason we may as well hang onto him for one more season rather than Garthwaite, who's limited and really not elite AFL standard.

 

[Rancey18]

Given he has been picked this week, I get the feeling we will be hanging on to him for another season. Doesnt make much sense otherwise.

Garthwaite obviously will be gone - so probably still need a mature option as a back up in case of injury (Talia perhaps).

Talia would seem like a sensible option to me.

Tooo injury prone.

[Tames]

I've heard his name mentioned so many times, but could never picture him. Great he's finally getting a game!
