Thought he sucked.

Same as Vickery in that he is 200cm/100kg and can't smash a pack or knock a bloke over.

Was far bigger than his direct opponent all night and hardly got a statistic worth mentioning. Maybe 1 contested grab and junk time goal?


He tries more than Vickery I'll give him that but unfortunately he's not half the footballer Vickery has the talent to be.

This guy wears panties.
He is a big girl and someone should tell him to his face.

That's the problem at punt road. Too many back slappers that arent prepared to tell players they aren't good enough and that the standard of achievement is so low that anything that normally is expected of a modern day footballer  is lauded with best on ground acheivements.
This bloke must have got the maccas voucher every weekend.

Cant take a contested mark even when he is repeatedly in the best position and the tallest bloke in the pack.

Getting sick of it.

1st one I'd have on the trade table,some one will bite.Built like Tarzan ... you know the rest.

He's been Hardwicked so its pointless to even bother anymore.

The possibility of physical and mental collapse is now very real. No sympathy for the Devil, keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride.

5. Ben Griffiths benefitted from a style change

The 24-year-old kicked five goals, three of them in the tense last quarter and one on the run with Ted Richards hot on his heels. It was a big moment for the much-maligned Griffiths, who stood tall when his team needed him. He benefitted from the Tigers' change in style after quarter-time, after they had 63 handballs and just 48 kicks in the first term, overusing the ball in tight against a team who knows how to pressure the opposition when in close. In the second quarter, the Tigers changed their approach and began to kick the ball, racking up 80 kicks and just 32 handballs as they drove the ball forward from clearances and spread the Swans defence. At times it went back and forth across the defensive 50, but the tactic drove the Sydney Swans mad and Richmond took 19 marks inside 50.

He's deserves every post he gets that includes all the critical ones and all the praise he will get after tonight's performance. He's been a bloody disappointment and tonight performance showed us why. He needs to atleast try to maintain this level as a standard every week.

:cheers
Even Cleave Hughes had one decent game.
I'm not getting too excited just yet.
I recon there wouldn't be many on here that wanted him in the side, including his biggest fan YBB.
