The boys at dreamteamtalk aren't so keen on him...

Have a read of the comments.
Apparently JS is a concern

Comment by the author of the article:
Miles tore up last year in the neafl as one of the sole inside midfielders. An ability to win the hard ball held him in good stead, and rubbished the year with the giants best dreamteam average of 102 (from memory, at work, can’t verify). Seen as a better option than dylan shiel for your mid bench, he was hurt badly by the recruitment of ward and scully, and draftee conigli. In a crowded midfield, miles issues will be job security, as his omission from sheedy’s round one team shows. An ability to pack a big punch comes at the cost of a possible vest, or just plain omission, miles is an attractive but dangerous prospect.

Lots of positives there to counter-balance the negatives.

Yeh saw that, i really want to keep him. Will have to wait until round 1 i suppose.

"Miles biggest challenge will be to cement a starting place in a team full of similar players. Scully and Ward will take over the role Miles played last year, with Palmer also putting pressure on Anthony for his place in the middle. Combine this with Clifton and Shiel also vying for spots in the midfield, and the addition of Coniglio and Tyson, Miles will have to fight hard for a spot in the Giants top 22. Should he manage to hold his spot, Miles could be one 2012’s fastest maturing cash cows. Watch how he is played in the NAB Cup. Consider."

Sheedy would be pretty stupid not to seriously consider him for round one. That being said all the young player will be rotated more than Fev's roulette board.

So who now? No neale, magner, shiel, miles for this weekend?

Let's hope Sam Gibson can convince us to pick him this week.

Hmmm Miles not playing? Maybe being rested for round 1? Is he really in Sheedy's plan to the extent that he needed to be rested...?

Sheedy dropped Smith after a big game as well. I think Miles will play round 1. At least on the bench.

If named rnd 1.... then punch it chewie....as long as he doesn't vest up and can play 7-8 rnds of full games to peak before bye for trading
