Jacob Miller time as Wests Tigers' woes worsen Jacob Miller is set to be named by Wests Tigers today. A SECOND-TIER salary cap crisis has given banished halfback Jacob Miller another chance to guide the injury-decimated Wests Tigers against Canterbury on Friday night. With 11 top-liners now unavailable, the joint venture boasts the worst April injury toll in recent history. First-choice centres Chris Lawrence (hamstring) and Blake Ayshford (ankle) were both ruled out for six weeks yesterday, joining Tim Moltzen (ACL, season) on the casualty list from Saturday night's torrid loss to Brisbane. The Tigers used 26 players in the first six weeks prior to the Brisbane clash, testing their $375,000 second-tier salary cap after reinforcements had to be summoned from outside the top squad. Drafting more new players from below will breach the second-tier cap and result in the club being fined. Recalling Miller would eliminate that prospect for now, given he's part of the full-time squad and played the first four games. The 20-year-old was dropped to NSW Cup to address his defensive play, kicking game and overall involvement, and he appeared out of favour as Tigers coach Mick Potter experimented with Braith Anasta and Moltzen at halfback. Potter confirmed Miller would be named at No.7 today, but will give Benji Marshall's toe every opportunity to heal over the coming 72 hours.
