It is a hard toss up between miles and Lambert. Lambert for gut running and always bring the outlet for chasing and being composed under pressure.

Miles for his quality inside work and releasing cotch and Martin to be damaging and gain some metres for us

Graham, Edwards, Lambert, Prestia in good nick helps  :cheers

Almost sad to think how far Miles has fallen down the rankings. If he is traded hopefully it's a strong deal For the tigers

It's a pity because I like the way Miles plays footy.

Aaron Fiora.

He could have been anything, he just lacked talent.

The sage advice Spud Frawley gave him when he arrived no doubt did the trick.... :shh

I still highly rate Miles. Has shown a lot when he came back in after the tigers got belted by the Saints. I thought it was rough he was dropped for being run down in the Hawks game

Don't think we get anything for Miles, if he gets picked up, but I could be wrong

Miles would be a perfect fit for Carlton or Brisbane even the Gold Coast.
In a weak draft I can see one of those teams paying overs for him. I wouldn't be surprised to get a late second early 3rd round pick for him.
Maybe I'm dreaming but you never know.

There's a fair bit of residual prejudice against Grigg because of his first few years at Richmond. But he is clearly our third best mid, by some margin, especially this season. I used to think he was almost a liability, but he's been fantastic this season. He's kicked goals, pinch-hits in the ruck and racks up more disposals than Lambert and Prestia, who'd be his closest rivals. In fact, given his ruck workload, there's an argument that we'd miss his presence more than Cotchin.

That would be a shame.

He's a pretty good player IMO. Graham is pretty much a bigger young version though...  :whistle

It we cannot get anything keep him or depth...  Although I assume he will wanna leave

Grigg is a very bad kick. Kicked goals? Missed a few too

Rich v Geekong: Griggy Most errors on the ground, after clangerfield. Didn't get the ball much either... That makes four shyte finals. He is soft and slow too. His ruck work would make beny hill smile.  Zero hit outs as well - we would miss this massively   :huh

Not only if he not our 3rd best mid, he isn't in the best side; some of the kids or Morris (blokes a nutter) Lloyd (goals, possessions) Miles (inside-strong) all bring more tricks to the party.

Let's hope he doesn't go full squib mode the next two game. If we get offered a third / four rounder would be insane to reject it. Brin a better player in and open cap space ... If you really think he's of more value to the team of better at football than Prestia thats amazing

That last line you added about grigg > cotchin is pure trolling. Not nice or funny.

lets be honest here if grigg was a part of a flag we would be forever grateful and he would be like a hero to all of us, along with the coach, pres, magnet dude, gerks, and anyone else who has ever appeared on this site.
