I was there last night & Reece def wasnt

I was there too and there were a couple missing

But it was a really good night

I think Griffiths needs to bulk up. The decision to slim him down has not been productive. I agree with what you are saying.

Unless he meant in the VFL whilst looking for a trade

contract up at years end, if he isn't back at the Club by then do we cut our losses? perhaps if he still not sorted his issue's out he may choose to leave anyway?
perhaps if he is sorted etc & committed we can re-rookie him? i wouldn't be against that idea

McBean

From the same BF poster at the sponsor's dinner:

Quote
- Doubt if McBean will play this week. I was told by his sponser that he has to play multiple great games. 3 good games in a row and we may see him.

So one rule for him, another for Hunt...... Vickery.....B.Ellis.....

Yep that's rubbish. Saying players have a to play a good few games in a row is fair play but that should apply to everyone except the out and out stars such as Deledio, Cotchin, Martin etc. if they were making their way back from injury or similiar

Yep correct

Just thought it was a strange question from Jack that's all

Couple of blokes were late too because of the lack of parking near the venue  :snidegrin

I know of 1 sponsor who was a bit peeved her player wasn't present & hadn't been notified prior, maybe that's what Jack was alluding to

That is true, know that sponsor very well  ;D

Just thought it was strange that you asked about 1 player when there were 3 that weren't there
