Yes. Do it more often!!

On his day, he can be as good as anyone.

Sadly, for me, it doesn't happen often enough, and there, in, lies the problem. I also think the same on Lino.

I've no idea what he's on, money wise, and don't want to know, but I would say he is one of our bigger earners, and expect these good performances a little more often.

Sadly last week was a perfect example, 3 of our so called better players, all went missing, and have done too many times, and I do think that has a lot to do with as to why we're where we are at.

We've lost at least 6 games this year where we have been within a converted try, and most If the time in these games, poor game management and last tackle plays have let us down

If he goes, and Lino too, they go with best wishes, but would like to replace them if we could, with that extra bit of quality.

Think you've got your answer there mate and I agree with them all.

Haha love it, one decent game when it suits him & people are wetting themselves like after the Cas game which is a few weeks ago now. I’d rather someone perform at a level of say 90% every match rather than the rocks & diamonds you get with this kid.

He can do it but for some reason he chooses not to.

It has always baffled me why people criticise Miller. True in his first few seasons he was very in and out but he was young.

In recent years he’s been our best most reliable player. Sure he makes errors but people who put themselves in the firing line rather than hiding always will.

What really staggers me is that he gets more stick than Lino. Anyone who rates Lino higher than Miller need their bumps feeling. Most weeks Lino is more a hindrance to Miller than a help and today was no different and today was a Lino good day.

My big hope is that Lino will eventually do what Miller has done and mature into a top player. It’s no wonder Cas want him, he’d vastly improve them.

Yes , who is comming in to replace him

I think most people agree with what you say Vasty and on his day he IS as good as anyone. My criticism of him is that he simply does not use those talents that he possesses more often and that's the difference between him being a good solid standoff and a great one.
He's our Captain and should lead by example week in and week out showing those silky skills he possesses much more often than he does - that's my view anyway.

That’s how a lot of people see it mate. It doesn’t help that when he does decide to make an appearance you get people on here raving about him. Yes he can play but it appears to be only when it suits him.

A Cas supporting mate of mine (I know) told me a couple of months ago that he was off there, I said i wasn’t that upset he was leaving, our issue is finding an adequate replacement on our budget.

It’s a difficult one with Miller as there are that many factors around him that can make him look poor, when he might be doing everything right but the forwards or Lino at the side of him are poor. His defence has always been excellent. Put it this way I think with our budget we’ll struggle to find a better replacement (happily proved wrong)

There was a time, Vasty, when I’m sure you were one of his bigger critics.

Like others have said, he’s capable of these performances, but sadly, they don’t happen very often, which is so frustrating. In his defence, I don’t think he’s the only player in our squad like that though, and I don’t think captaincy has helped his case either, but hats off, in these last couple of wins he’s played a captains knock.

I was a big fan in the first couple of seasons, but these performances were becoming less often.

I do hope though, that if he goes, we do replace him with some real quality. Hopefully Fev will like Lineham so much that they want to take his inflated contract on and free up cap and budget space, so we can bring on quality at 6 and 7.

Correct I stated that in my post. First few years he was dodgy, had what I called a yip.

It’s a strange world we live in. It seems you can’t judge someone as that are at that moment without it somehow being used in evidence against you years later. So what it’s irrelevant what I or anyone else thought years ago to what we think now.

I think Lino is a really poor half back. In two seasons I may think he’s great because he may well be. However that doesn’t apply respectively despite what some on here peddle. He could go on to be man of steel but that won’t make him any less poor at this moment in time.

It’s not about bl**dy point scoring it’s about the truth. Miller imo is currently our only game breaker and has been since Finn retired. That’s just how it is.

Slightly OT, ditto Poching, the facts are that we are still second from bottom and have played some dreadful and gutless RL this season. We are playing well now but that doesn’t allow us to rewrite history to suit our argument or agendas.

I will say hand on heart the capitulation to Toulouse at Newcastle was the lowest I’ve ever seen from a Trinity side. Worse than anything I’ve witnessed in forty years and there is a lot to chose from. I’m amazed how quickly some are forgetting that, I can only assume some are besotted with WP due to accent or player reputation, no other coach has ever seemed to get off so lightly.

I fully get the massive problems we have and nobody expects wins but we do expect performances and let’s be honest it want until the Saints game that they materialised. Bit late imo.

So let’s also hope Poching does a Miller and matures into a great coach. To be fair it’s early days but the facts are that by this point both Chester and Kear were doing much better after saving a relegation threatened team or are we going to rewrite that one as well.
