Raph and Milera

Post: # 1174813Post dcstkfc »

A potential advantage of Raph's retention is his ability to mentor Milera.

The cultural divide between indigenous and non-indigenous players has been an issue at other clubs, and Milera only got going at Port Magpies after spending some quality time with Gavin Wanganeen.

Hopefully Raph's professionalism will help guide Milera in his journey to becoming a solid AFL player.

You want Milera to be the new scapegoat? :wink:

Raph and certainly tutor him about abuse from so called supporters.


Lance or James??

We have to pick up another 10 or 11 players in the upcoming drafts. Lets hope at least one is also indigenous. Also dont be forgetting Winmar.

Let's the draft the best players possible, whether they are indigenous or not. If all 11 are indigenous, great. But, I'd hope we wouldn't just draft someone because of there skin colour.

Well said, too much is said or assumed already in the AFL when it comes to a players skin colour.

I seriously dont think Raph's derision from some fans is realated to his race.
Lord knows Aaron Firoa used to cop it just as bad.

As for Milera - lets hope he gets the suppott he needs without making a big fuss of it.

The word "cabbage" is used far to much on this forum IMO. Time for a change cabbage.

Are you fearing a cold snap or a total eclipse?


I've never seen a bad St.Kilda player - that's just how they are.

Let's hope Raph doesn't pass his blinkers on to the new recruit! No use two players continually getting caught with the ball.

As I said. I hope at least one of the 10 or 11 players we are yet to pick up is indigenous.
