Grigg.  3rd in disposals. 2nd in marks, 14 goals.  77% disposal efficiency.

30 possessions and 2 goals in the loss to Essendon earlier in the year.  Is that a downhill skier?  Our best ball users are Deledio, Cotchin, Martin, Houli and Grigg.  It drops away a fair bit after that.

------
Of Grigg’s 27.8 disposals per game this season, however, he runs at 79 per cent efficiency, a higher rating than his much publicised teammates Deledio (75 per cent), Martin (67) and Cotchin (65).

He also averages three clearances per game and manages to hit the scoreboard when he runs out onto the field, kicking on goal per match. His numbers so far prove that he is one of the unsung heroes of the Tigers line up, that the Hawks will need to be aware of on Saturday afternoon.

How is his tackle count compared to the other mids.  His disposal is only good because he is out on his own most of the time, he is not a good kick. 

How can you compare his disposal to our other mids who actually win contested ball, you are doing them a major dis-service putting Grigg in their category.

No 1 in unaccountability and runs off the efforts of our other mids such as Cotch, Foley and Dusty.

Average player for mind that we can do a lot better on, IMO Grigg and Houli are just fill ins until we develop our own.

Most of the time just bombs it long aswell, which goes down as effective
