David Bourke didnt have 1/10th the talent of this boy. Griffiths can play IMHO.

 agree

don't put guff anywhere near the ruck

I have a bit of a "don't bad Hardwick" mentality as 18 months into a rebuild he's sort of off limits for me. His critisms will come into his 3rd year.

But..

Who ever made the decision to put Griffiths into the ruck should be hung out to dry.
I'm not suggesting putting the kid in cotton wool. But after 2 Shoulder Recos and all the hype around that hes injury prone, and has all the talent in the world. What planet would anyone think it would be a good idea to put the kid in the ruck..

I'm more than happy for the coaching staff to make wrong decisions by having a gamble, ie Helbig down back, Post in ruck, even selecting Hislop.

But the decision to put a currently fragile Rolls Royce into the ruck against a dirty Ryder and physical Hille was about the stupidest decision the coaching panel has made in 2 seasons.

Very lucky he didn't re injure his ribs or shoulder. Would have been hell to pay.

A full pre season and I'm hoping this kid will come on nicely.
I like the fact he takes one grab marks. Has very strong hands.
Remember a speccy he took in his first game against Port in the mud. :thumbsup

Just needs time. Has the tools to be more than handy.
I dont agree with some that our list is that dire at the moment. Few glaring holes, yes, but when players like Griff, Concs and Batch really step up and join our other young guns, which im confident will happen in time, then I think we'l be OK. Clearly still a lot to turn over, but many of the building blocks are there.
Waiting blows though...

Along with his run down tackles and booming kick.
The kid could be a gun, just needs luck with injuries.

Can confirm is a great kid so attitude shouldnt be an issue at all.

David Bourke took some great screamers & played a hand full of good games  ;D
But had weak wings not even KFC could fix  :rollin
Jumpin Jack fool Rewoldt will destroy Griffiths shoulders by jumping all over him :help  because he thinks the forward line is all his.

Well said.

Needs to build his engine to get to more contests and continue to build his strength. Those things can be worked on.

However this guy has the footballing tools to be elite.
