Actually missed Griff tonight. Nobody to take pack marks. Vickery was weak all night in attack.

Vickery was weak all night in attack.

I don't agree with that.  I thought Vickery's game was reasonable and he worked well when up forward and on the ball.

I agree, considering he had s tooth knocked out I though he held it together and played well all things considered....

Vickery was very good no doubt about it 

[peggles]

vickery got better as the game wore on.

[Fluffy Tiger]

Vickery was horrid most of the game. Last quarter he did some good stuff but that was it. Some of his "Marking Attempts" well Im not sure how to describe them.

But this thread is about Griff and we did miss him tonight, as Hardwick said in his post match. He straightens them up. Hope he is back soon.

I've liked him since he came back in the side, he gets involved in the game for longer periods now and has more impact, rather than the typical 1-2 cheapies in junk time, he demands the ball and clunks some big grabs now. Liking his ruck work

[Gigantor]

hardly a night for tall forwards last night

[Yeahright]

Delay his return and get him primed for finals when conditions are generally dryer and better suited for talls

I would like:

Griff chb.  Tell him to kick it 80 metres

Chaplin out


Astbury or McKenzie. Or mcbean. Fwd

[Yeahright]

I would like:

Griff chb.  Tell him to kick it 80 metres

That worked so well last time

Chaplin ain't working now son

[Yeahright]

Like it or not, despite all his deficiencies, he is providing us with something that no one else has shown they can and that's being our 2nd tall back who can hold his own (at times).

Definitely need an upgrade though

[Andyy]

Chaplin is doing enough.

Anybody who thought Vickery was effective when isolated in the F50 was clearly fondling themselves instead of watching the game. He was weak, slow and disinterested for about 80% of the night.

Needed Griffiths. He's a better pack mark.
