Brad Miller Biography

Brad Miller returns to Melbourne as part of the Demons' coaching panel for 2014, serving as the club's development coach.

Richmond has announced several list changes, with six players cut from its list.

With Kel Moore and Brad Miller both retired, and Daniel Connors departing mid-season, the Tigers have cut ruckman Andrew Browne, Jeromey Webberley, Dean MacDonald and rookies Addam Maric, Piva Wright and Gibson Turner.

"The Richmond Football Club acknowledges the contribution these players have made, and wishes them all the best in their future endeavours," the club said.

Dedicated Tigers Brad Miller and Kelvin Moore have announced their retirements, effective immediately.

Ahead of his 150th match, Richmond forward Brad Miller has admitted he thought his career was over after being delisted by Melbourne.

"I thought it was all over," Miller said.

"I'd started preparing for life after AFL footy. I'm glad I got a second crack."

Richmond football manager Craig Cameron says the club has spoken to recently delisted Demon Brad Miller about reviving his career as an enforcer in the Tigers' forward line.

"One of things we looked at was the age of our tall forwards is very young," Cameron said.

"We spoke to Brad about the fact he's only 27 years of age, he can play forward, he's an outstanding character so he would add leadership to our whole football club plus he's got ambitions beyond football in terms of coaching."

Melbourne coach Dean Bailey says Brad Miller has shown a lot of character to knock back an AFL farewell to play with VFL affiliate Casey.

"He's always been a team-first, club-first player. His involvement at Casey has been very thick for the whole year," Bailey said.

"Inside the football club he is incredibly respected. He's got great love for the club and he works as hard as anyone. His leadership since I've been at the footy club has been fantastic."

Melbourne forward Brad Miller is told he will be delisted at the end of the season but chooses to line up for the Casey Scorpions in their VFL qualifying final rather than play in a farewell AFL match.

"Had to make a big call today ... I have decided to play with the Scorps in the finals this week," he said via Twitter.

"Really appreciate the club's offer for a farewell but know I wouldn't feel right about turning my back on the Scorps for week 1 of the finals."
