Ben Griffiths was subbed off in the second quarter after running into Jeremy Laidler in a marking contest and suffering bruised ribs.

Reckon, by the look of him sitting on the bench on the replay, that Ben's ribs might have been bruised by all the loose bones rattling around in his chest.

Yep Doc Larkins said the same thing on the Sunday Footy Show yesterday. No mention of Griffiths on our updated injury list so fingers crossed he's okay :pray

Hornsby said Griffs had a scan after the game and got the 'all clear'. Trained well today and is not a unrealistic chance to play this weekend. They'll see how he trains later in the week and they're hoping he'll get himself right to play.

you must be joking, he get injured  because he puts his body on the line.

Griff will be a very good player for the Tiges sooner rather than later

Soft because he copped a kick/knee to the the ribs

I don't think so

Could have suffered some serious damage.

Good to hear that he hasn't got busted ribs - they can be bloody painfully (speaking from experience)
