Problem with Miller is a conflict of opinion between the coach and the owner.

What opinion do each have ?

AP likes him, Radford doesn't think you can build a team around him.

I disagree, he is pretty fast but he just finds gaps other centres don't and runs angles others don't. I don't know about his contract details but its stupid he is playing at Doncaster, if he is here and playing well then he is justifying a better deal, if he has flaws in his game then the club can point to those in negotiations.

I am a bit old school. I see no great skill in running into a gaping hole in the defensive line. Its the accuracy and timing of the pass which makes the run look good.

I am also of the opinion, if there are flaws in your game, then the coaching staff should address them.

Scored 4trys against Saints under 19's

Conceded as many with poor defensive reads too.

Also was arguing with Logan and didn't look at all interested in the first half, mind you neither did half the team

Crooks is a great attacking talent, his defence needs work but that can be coached. What skill he has with ball in hand can't. Best home grown centre at the club since schofield (Probably not saying much I know)

Nothing yet has been announced but its obvious Radford doesn't want him so the club will be looking to pay him off if both parties can agree terms..
They tried to do this with McDonnell but he wanted to stay and fight for his place,but was told he wouldn't be playing again for the club and was frozen out even though he was fit to play resulting in a court case.
I think the same will happen to Miller.
The problem is for the club that when you look at how Gentle,McDonnell and possibly Miller to come have been treated by the club it doesn't enhance the chances of bringing quality Australian players here,and I think the club will struggle to bring in any top Australian centre or second row.

See this is why the club can't win with some fans, people like you have moaned about the club and Radford all season, they then start to get ruthless and get rid of some average players who are paid miles above there value and have better players in the position they play in and the same fans moan about unfair treatment to these players.

About the club gut tough and started getting value for money from there players.

Rumour west of the Pennines is that Wigan are willing to sell, but we're unwilling to pay.

Depending on salary cap space I reckon we still might see him at Hull next year, there chairman is renowned to get money for players and won't want to lose him for nothing , I reckon they want 100k, but if we offer 50k I think they might let him go.
