If his body holds up, I like the idea of him pinch hitting with Vickery in the ruck

U don't risk top shelf in the ruck

I've got a feeling Griffs would have started up forward this year if Grimesy was right. One the BF training reports a week or so ago mentioned him training with the forwards and doing 2nd ruck duties as a follower. However with Grimes still doubtful and with what Griffs said in the article, it looks he with remain in defence for the time being alongside Rance and Chaplin. I'm guessing that means Aaron Edwards could start round 1 as the 3rd forward :-\.

If i was developing BG, I would make him the 2013 version of Jim Jess.

Interesting idea, not Jimmy Jess backside on toughness but kicking and marking perhaps?

Sure.

Give him a visual at least, of a blueprint that could develop his natural game

I'd love him to play, but what will the team look like with him in it? Will he be starting on the bench with Vickery at CHF ?

RFCO on BF said he believes Griffiths will stay in defence this year.

To be honest I doubt even Dimma has a good idea of where Griff will play the majority of 2013. Could start forward but he may be required down back at some stage. Schulzy played most of the 2009 pre-season as a defender before the Wallet started him forward in the games he played in during the real season.
I don't know why people feel the need jump on here and wink ;) with their info. Coaches change their minds all the time and chances are Griff will spend time down back
