Complete and utter rubbish from what I've been told,
When pre-season training started Radders was getting involved in training and Radders being Radders told Miller to get past him which Miller did easily leaving Radders grasping for thin air everytime Radders tried to tackle him.
Miller wasn't brought here for his tackling he was brought here because he is a young halfback with talent, tackling technique can be taught and improved and given thats what Radders is known for you'd expect him to try and help improve Millers technique not hold a grudge because he was made to look a fool by Miller when he tried and failed to tackle Miller.
It makes me laugh how Radford is treating Miller considering it was him who wanted Miller to stay when Miller first found out that Gentle had been sacked and met with Miller and his agent on a number of occasions before he went back home to Australia to convince him to stay.
Ask any of the players they will tell exactly what happened and may even tell you exactly what I've been told that most of Them think Miller is being treated unfairly by Radford.

| Quote: Rock God X "No, he wasn't. As I said a few pages back, he made a few mistakes (understandably), but also showed some encouraging signs as well. He might not be the answer to our long term halfback problem, but he's sure as hell done enough to be given a chance to show that he is the answer.'"
Agreed. He's a possible answer, and what we have seen the last few games clearly isn't, so there's nothing to lose by at least looking at him again.

Agree, but whats annoying is bringing back when our pack is going to be at its worst! Leaving him hung out to dry again! Seriously think Radders as got this one wrong

I'm not sure on the first part, but the last part is certainly true. Most players are baffled as to why Pitts is being left out too. Maybe it's the same reason McDonnell is seeking legal advice?

2. What a player earns should have no bearing on whether or not they play.
Just because a coach makes a decision doesn't mean it is necessarily the right one, otherwise all coaches would agree about everything, and they clearly don't. Your argument is fundamentally flawed (seemingly because the coach in question is your mate (or you want him to be)).'"
I am not bothered who coaches them..I didn't want PG to go I thought he was treat unfair & didn't have enough time tbf...& I have said all along I want the team to compete & plat with a bit of respect for themselves the fans & our club..I don't want to see anyone at FC fail players or coaches.

Only repeating what I've been told by a number of the players after asking the reason why Miller isn't playing and that is the only explanation they can come up with.

| But its not only Jacob Miller is it?
Crooks, Lineham (before injury) Shaul & presumably Miller
all look to have their confidence shot under Radford.

Yeah he's making them get injured & miss tackles & he told crooks to run at carney & get burried into the ground & miss the tackle late on to help cas win the game! There's a way around it I suppose maybe his way of dropping them is either or? Time will tell.

We lost the game at Cas because we didn't convert the possession and territory we had into enough points (heard that before haven't we) trying to pin the blame on a young centre missing a tackle is just clutching at straws. We held cas to scoring 3 trys which I believe was the first time in a long time they failed to score more than 30 points let alone 20. Defence was not the issue that day the same as it wasn't the issue on Sunday.

till the team chosen put in an 80 min performance we are always going to come just short in most games.
