Player Watch #6: Shaun Grigg

[NaturalDisaster]

Always liked Grigg. Was an absolute workhorse for us for years, rarely had a bad game either.

I reckon he will make a good senior coach one day.

 

[Punt rd end]

Footy classified said retirement is on the cards I heard him say in a interview that he thought the Tigers would win a premiership but not in his time. I am rapt he was a part of it

 

[DontArgue4]

Nooo dont leave us Griggs

 

[guruisatiger]

If grigga does retire, hope he stays at the club
Would make a great development coach

Have heard he's bought a house down at Geelong and will be joining them as an assistant coach next year.

If Grigg retires and we pick up a player in the mid season draft... how does this effect the number of players we need to turn over?... will it still be minimum 3?

I think so
Pretty sure pre season draft players are more of a loan type player
We have them until the end of the season but if we did keep them into next year it would count as a new player if that makes sense

 

[Bazzar]

We don't need to turnover 3, one is enough, but we are allowed to medically test three, and the player(s) picked up can renegotiate a new contract for next year

Interesting if Rance went on the long term injury list and we replaced him, and he's then ok to play finals, the Tiges have to apply to the AFL and wait for permission for him to re join the list. I'd say that's why they haven't put him on it even though it's unlikely to play this year.

Should add, the draft order is based on the ladder after r10.

Two Premiership ruckmen out within days! I like Griggs, he's done really well for himself as a footballer.

Thank you for your service to our great Club Grigga.You leave knowing you were a key cog in our premiership year.
Enjoy your retirement.

 

[Roksman]

Legend.

Showed his club first attitude right to the end. Will definitely find a role within the club

 

[Gak Attack]

Great workhorse for the club. Did whatever role was needed. Always a shame when it doesn't end on their own terms but he gets to retire a premiership player which many don't. Thanks Griggs in the ruck.

 

[tugga]

Was an absolute warrior. Go well Grigga.

 

[sante]

Will always be a premiership Tiger. On ya Grigg

 

[Coach_Required]

Any guy that is happy to get the hell out of Carlton and win a premiership with us will always have my respect

Thanks for helping us break our drought Grigga, you will be missed !!

 

[joelsyt]

I was fine with the rumours he was retiring, but now it’s official I am really sad.

Wish him all the luck in his future endeavours.

Hopefully we offer him a position as an assistant coach!
