    Always liked Brad Miller. Probably for no other reason than his dad played for us.

    Yeah, father is Neville Miller, played for us in the early 70's. I remember when Miller got drafted by the Demons reading that had they not changed the FS rules Sydney could have claimed him, but I don't know about that cos Nev only played around 30 games.

    To be fair, his knee injury was described as the sort of thing you see in a horrific car accident. I remember watching the match when it occurred and as someone who loves violence, even I found it horrible to watch.
    'Delicious' is a fun word to say

    I got tired of waiting for the other shoe to drop, so here goes:

    There was a young Crow named Trent Hentschel
    Who never quite reached his potential.
    He trained 'til he strained,
    Many kilos he gained,
    But knees are a major essential.

    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Bird in a crystal ball)

    I like Pyke.

    Graham Polak from Tigers has retired - in his case, it's nice to see he looked at the risks involved.

    O'Bree and Rusling retire - AFL.com.au
    If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

    Can add Lockyer and Medhurst to the list as well based on comments Malthouse made on On The Couch - haven't found any reports online to confirm though.

    They reckon Presti may go as well.
    "Build it and they will come" was the theory. Seems most are keeping away, and it's sadly out of date.
