Just signed a two year contract
LMFAO at two years. they just never learn at the rabble footy club.
Two years to a bloke who if we had a half decent list of talls should probably be delisted.

I dont like this - Ive been a fan of Griff's skillset in the past and felt he had a high ceiling - fact is though, hes been very underwhelming and there comes a point where you just need to move on.  I would prefer he was let go so we can start again. He's not a matchwinner and certainly has never shown he has the consistency of effort required to become a legit contributor. Just because he fills a list need is not good enough.

Griff just needs to watch a few eighties films you know the ones where they tell you to close your eyes and believe and then trade his body in for one that doesn't fall apart

needs to hook up with Dorothy and find the wizard
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

I think between closing his eyes and finding the wizard, the body might miraculously start to come good
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

I had hopes for big Griff, think he has more natural talent than Vickery, both lacked belief and seemed to be wary of getting in amongst it for some reason.  Griff has turned a corner on this a bit in his most recent games I reckon.  Vickery, dunno, good set shot, crap pack mark and not much chop around the ground.  Griff needs to be taking his shots outside fifty because he gets inaccurate if he is too close LOL

I we must persist with Balsa Wood Benny then he should at least be instructed use his big boot more often......otherwise he's just going to continue to be another pointless footballer clogging the list....

After watching his highlights tape, Betamax thinks this bloke could be anything & overlooks a future Brownlow medalist to secure him before anyone else can.

Before the coach can change his natural footy instincts, TheGirlGriff tantalises us all with some hangers in wet conditions and a superboot no-one has seen since Bernie Quinlan.

Dumma Halfwit & his merry band of back slappers realise the kid could be anything so work feverishly to make sure all his natural ability is a thing of the past & make sure he only kicks 20 meters because they don't want him to over exert himself or crash any packs.
Realising he's a little soft skinned, the coaches start massaging the boys feminine side & let him cry to mummy every time he gets a broken fingernail. 
 After explaining why the boundary is essential to the "BlueprintofSuccess" gameplan they all ensure him they'll call him off the ground if the team was getting too badly beaten.   :rollin
