There is something seriously going wrong here - whether its Griff-based or club-based - its not a good look.

This is worse news than Cotchin giving it away in 3 years and Grimes out for the season put together.

I'm shocked and appalled.

Prepared for a reaming. Bought some lube for the boys. I'll drop it down at Coburg tomorrow after work.

Yeah, that's what I suspected G.  Makes you wonder what's gone wrong in his head to have fallen so far in a short space of time.  He has plenty of ability, no injuries that I'm aware of but seems to be going backwards at a rate of knots.  Anyone on here know him well enough to say whether it might be ego-driven - Ben not happy being dropped to the 'Burgers and is just sulking?

[Coach]

I don't recall any games at Coburg where it's been said he stood out. There certainly hasn't been one for Richmond where he's done anything out of the ordinary. He was a decent junior footballer who missed a a lot of time with injury. Right now it looks like he's just a poo recruit. The only reason people rate him is because he can kick 60 metres and also move well for a tall fella. Other than that he's done FA and never has. I doubt anyone would be giving it to Tigermonk if he were still posting, he's been on the money with a lot of his comments over the years

This will come across as negative but it's the truth. He may still make a good AFL footballer but we haven't seen much

[Phil Mrakov]

Will watch to see Simon

The McBean show before Dreamtime.

[one-eyed]

No Aaron Edwards and I think also no Nahas?

[Danog]

Astbury starting well.

Dea kicks it out straight to a Port player 25m out  .

All Port so far. Coburg hasn't got past the centre line.
