Apparently Grigg told the club, if he didn't get another year he was going to get depression.

Seriously
Both deserve contract extension
Both average 25 possessions a game
And Shaun will finish top 5 in the B&F
Well done to both I say

Going to open myself up a bit here but the Grigg one doesn't poo me too much but the Houli one? The dude already has a year to run why the hell are we falling over ourselves to sign him for another year? It makes no sense :banghead :banghead

Oh, and for the sake of it I'm going to toot my own horn a little here

Heard they'd come to an agreement re: contract extension during the week. Explains his drop in form

If going to retain him for another year should not be played in the midfield. Should be played as a half forward. His poor tackling is a liability in the midfield.

Has another year to run, has told the press he is not going anywhere. Maybe that was enough.

No, now that he is retained his a depth / back up player only. not in the first 22 every week. Must be outside the top 25 = the back up crew

Agree with what you are saying but I doubt Hardwick will use him that way. He will be in the first 22 every week.

I could deal with him being depth but what's the chances of that happening?

No more free spuds from the spud bar unless you re-sign this spud.
