Message: [QUOTE="1910, post: 2632843, member: 8272"] [FONT=arial]I don't think fans ever turned on Miles, Wally and Miles had a bit of a falling out over it. Ribot and Bennett coped the brunt of the reaction. Miles is similar to all those original players they are remembered for their form for Wynnum etc and Origin not the Broncos. Miles and Lewis were both close to 30 by the end of the '89 season. Miles was a great centre and up to his knee injury in '85 was unstoppabe. 86 he was back to his best in the best club side ever:[/FONT] [COLOR=#555555]Pre-Season competition, [/COLOR][COLOR=#555555]State League Final, Presidents Cup and Premiership.[/COLOR][FONT=arial] Lewis had played first grade since 1978. He was set in his ways and didn't have a great relationship with younger players- they wouldn't come to him because of who he was and he wouldn't go to them incase he looked like a knob forcing himself on kids. Giles joined the club for '90 and weights and training started, it was hard for a lot of those older guys and Lewis was injured most of the year anyway with his shoulder and knee op before the season even started and then two hamstring injuries and his arm during the season and he only played 9 games all year. Miles was let go as well at the end of '91 and went to Wigan which he was bitter over.[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
