| Poaching’s job just got a whole lot harder picking the team going forwards after Saturday with some stand out performances by players who have been given a chance to showcase their talents, and to a man have up trumps ,not only for themselves but for the future of Wakey

Agreed.
Problem is whatever he does now he will be wrong to a section of the crowd.

So just by me saying "if it where to be true" doesnt in anyway make me believe it may be true.or is that unclear to you,and the ferrari bit isnt true my head i wish it was though

Believe what you want squire I lost all interest when you took my post out of context, your analogy was a bit naff as well to be honest.

| Don’t get the whole bagging millar, been a good half back over a long period of time - his kicking game isn’t the greatest but for our budget more than happy with him.
On the walker front has always been a good footballer but reminds me a little bit of Ryan Hudson - bit slow for a top stand off or scrum half a bit small for a loose forward, suspect his best position will probably be loose forward over time. Thought he really showed what he could do on Saturday

| Loose forward may well be Walker's best position but it is no coincidence that Ashurst had his best game for ages when he managed 80 minutes without a hospital pass.
Walker's reading of a game, passing and kicking are all better than Miller's though Miller certainly has greater pace. We should remember that we all though Neil Fox and Nigel Wright were lacking in pace but their reading of a game gave them a head start in most situations.

| If Miller were to leave, who could we realistically replace him with? They'd have to be within our budget, want to come here and be ready now. I can't think of anyone.

| Isn't Millers contract up at the end of the season along with quite a few more.
I like Miller and he gets stuck in but he doesn't back himself enough and as a result does throw some hospital passes out.

And that's where we're at. Miller is better than any half available to us at this moment in time.

| He always has great games each year. People seem to round on him as soon as he has a quiet game.
He's had to go through last two seasons with inexperienced hookers and scrum halves and a pack getting beaten.
I have no problem with Miller. He's not perfect but what he does he does well.
Now we have Hood he'll get much better ball and hopefully we get a osrtnership with Lino going again.

Out of interest, why do you not think he`s ready? He looks every bit ready to me to be honest every time he plays he looks comfortable, I guess you don`t know how a body will hold up to this level of rugby every week but not sure when you will find if you don`t give him the chance, its not like he`s a young lad that still doesn`t look all there, physically he looks there to me 100%.
Brads obviously a special player, when you go back and look at the side he captained in England Academy, the majority of those player are now playing every week in SL, he`s ready now IMO and I think we are going to see him in the side.

| Having seen Walker play on Saturday I'd put Miller 3rd behind Gaskell & Walker. Possibly 4th if Kaye had a shot at it.
