Yep about as good an NRL signing as I think can realistically be achieved

Think you are right, that's the type of signing a SL club can make, fringe NRL player or one that is at the end of his career.

I watch a lot of NRL and he was fairly good for Newcastle at FB early roads, until the massive mistake he made (never seen that before), he isn't going to replace Ponga who is in the form of his life. Think he has been playing a lot at 6 in the NSW comp.

Good player, if this is happening you'd have to assume myler will be back in the halves next year with Hooley back up FB.

I'd hope so, rather than Miller in halves. More than happy for Myler to do a transitional year at 7 until Sinfield or another is ready to step up.

I'm actually not concerned by the lack of NRL games. He's only a recent convert from RU. Being a sevens player shows he'll have the required fitness and speed, and he won't have the same mileage/injury record of a 200 game NRL fullback.

Still need a quality 6, a prop and a line running BR in my opinion.

I really hope it doesn't mean Myler to the halves. It's a big ask but if the club wants to make the required leap, Myler needs to be a squad player next year. That means two halves. I'll likely be dissapointed.

Really happy with Miller, much needed pace and run threat from fullback

3 into one at FB doesn't go and I can't imagine myler who will be on a decent salery is back up.

It’d be a good situation to be in next year if myler and Sinfield are our reserve halves.

Miller seems to have played more games/be more suited to fullback, but he could have been signed as a half.

Has anyone made a play for Schneider from KR, he’d be worth a look imo.

Millers played all his NSW cup games at 6 this year, but i really hope the plan is Fullback, Speed, Evasion, hands out the back...He's about as complete a fullback, traits wise, as you can realistically hope to sign at SL level.

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour thread V4 : Mon Aug 21, 2023 8:02 am  

Miller seems just the type of player that will go well in SL, quick, evasive, good kicking and passing game from what ive seen
