Rookie Miles on the rise at Tigers

RICHMOND is considering elevating former GWS midfielder Anthony Miles next week as the Tigers run out of chances to turn around their season.

Miles is in contention for elevation for Richmond's contest against Melbourne after the bye after another prolific VFL game.

He won 37 touches against Geelong's VFL side on Sunday at Punt Road, with 24 contested touches and a dozen clearances.

And while the Tigers overlooked him to elevate Matt Thomas and Orren Stephenson in the pre-season, Jake King's toe injury has put the small forward on the long-term injury list.

It frees the path to elevate Miles, who has clearly been the club's best VFL player of the year.

Miles impressed not only with his clearance ability in the NAB Cup but also with his tidy disposal, with VFL coach Tim Clarke resigned to losing him to the seniors soon.

He played ten games for GWS after being recruited as a zone selection but was delisted at the end of 2013.

Richmond coach Damien Hardwick told On The Couch on Monday he believed the season was still alive despite the club's 2-5 record.

But ruckman Ivan Maric is still as many as three weeks away after ankle surgery.

"If there was a game at VFL level he would play (this weekend) so he's probably about 2-3 weeks away. He's an important player. Guys play well around him. You could see with the addition of (Alex) Rance and (Brett) Deledio how we played. We will have a bit of a mini-review and the players are off Thursday and Friday. We look forward to recharging the batteries but the season is still alive."
