Some might want to watch the game again.

Griff played on Reid for a lot of the night. Anyone remember seeing Reid at all? Jack was able to dominate because Griff took Reid away from him leaving only Grundy and Rampe to go with Jack. Did the team thing.

Yes good point actually. Reid was around in the first and a bit in the second but disappeared afer that.. :thumbsup

Great point

The other thing is part of his job, ditto Tyrone and Jack is that if they pent mark the thing they are to bring it to ground, create a contest. He that last night and then kept Ried away from said pcntest

His first half was awful (wasn't alone there) but his 2nd half was solid. Played his role and when he and Ty rotated through the middle it worked a treat

I'm not sure he tries to get injuries, but who knows, some like to feel a bit of self inflicted pain from time to time, so I have heard!

If we'd blooded McKenzie for this easy victory, we would've had it wrapped up even sooner....

Dr Larkins reckons he's been carrying a shoulder problem all year, yesterday made it worse with the "sub-luxing" (or whatever they call it - Dr YBBB" hellp please) of his AC joint

Subluxation is a term that is used to describe a partial dislocation of the joint WP. I heard Griff re-injured one of his shoulders over the summer and as such, has become "loose". He has done well to come this far without medical intervention.  It is a little like Steve Morris last year. He'll probably need it "tightened up" sooner or later. The problem he has is that both shoulders have already been reconstructed. One required bone grafting.  So operating again is not that straight forward. I may be able to talk to his surgeon, who I know personally but haven't seen for a while, for more information.
Edit: As long as the information is such that I am allowed to divulge it! ;)
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.
