Yep, he did it to one of Fevs bigger players.
I really like Miller these days as he's made the best of himself.
I honestly think that if there is any validity in sports psychiatry he'd benefit. For me, he's definitely got what golfers call a 'Yip' in his game. He does everything right and then in the last moment loses his nerve. Thus he shapes up for the long pass then suddenly he drops it short, normally to poor old Ashurst who thought he was the dummy runner, ditto with kicks, it's on but then it's either way too short or too long. Obviously, this doesn't happen every time but it's often enough to stop him from reaching his true potential. If he could banish that from his game then he'd be a brilliant all-around player.
In fairness to Miller, that's the difference with all players at all levels, total self-belief is an uncommon gift or curse.
I think you mean sport psychology. Very different thing to psychiatry.
But I do agree. I'd say it applies to the whole team but Miller especially.
I also think he gets a bad name for giving bad passes to Ashurst where he keeps running into defenders. For me this us more Ashurst's issue. When others play left they don't run the same line, Tanginoa especially.
