I can't believe everyone is leaving out Miller from the seventeen after his performance last week. He goes extremely hard I think he will be in the seventeen next year. He is an absolute must IMO. He hits the line at full speed and always makes ground and with a year under his belt, he could be that much better next year.

My side:

Schif
Gafa
Mogg
Frawley
Graham
Smith
Carney
Croker
Hindmarsh
Hodgson
Weyman
Woolford
O'Hara

McLinden
Miller
Martin
Adamson

Perfect balance of backs and forwards IMO. Two backrowers and a front rower and a utility back is just what we need IMO.

I agree re Miller .... I thought it was great when he took the ball up the sideline, hit a brick wall, got up obviously hurting, dusted himself off and got straight back in the line. A pocket dynamo imo.
