Player Watch #6: Shaun Grigg

[JAKLAUGHING]

Good read that!

 

[Football Tragic]

Love Grigga! Was an under rated component of our flag imho. A club leader who stepped up and became more about the team once his good mate left.

 

[JR#8]

Well done to Griggs. 200 game is a pretty big feat and reading up Lids tribute to him is eye opening.
Second best ruckman in the club.

Fixed.

 

[mopsy]

Hmm 200th game who would have thought it.

Not my cup of tea when it comes to players but congratulations on the 200 and best leave it at that.

 

[Madtiger2006]

He has a massive sign on the eastern fwy for his 200 lol

 

[Oprah From Tigerland]

‘Onya Grigga

 

[Oprah From Tigerland]

Also, anyone secretly enjoy Grigga ghosting Lids when they were in Fiji?

 

[Charlie Pannam]

Congrats to Grigga on 200 who I reckon will be remembered as a great team man. Only have to look at his impact on Dusty, from what I hear was a stabilising influence early in his career.

 

[U2tigers]

Terrible game tonight.

I can't remember him ever being this slow. He was a liability in the Centre tonight. His opponent cleared with ease, with Grigg hardly applying pressure.

I won't say hes done, but just not sure he can play in the middle.

Rucking and playing center f**ks the old boy....one position only...it's definitely his last year imo...

 

[Madison]

Just looking at the stats and he had 24 with 8 clearances, 4 I50’s and 6 R50’s with 15 CP with 5 clangers. I noticed some average things but in fairness, shocked to see his stats. They’d have to be his best stats for the year imo. Not saying it was a great game or a bad game, just that he might have had more of an impact than we realized.

 

[ComfortablyNumb]

That contest in the last where it was two on one but he didn't bother to compete was shocking, should've been an easy goal

He looked exhausted...

I could have thrown the dog thru the TV, Grigg looks slow doesn't apply much pressure and does those fuc&^^ floater kicks.

 

[Hoos]

I honestly can't see him in our best team come finals time.

 

[TiggerMan22]

Probably the start of the end. Been very serviceable for us for many years. Massive win in that trade,

 

[tony__montana]

I honestly can't see him in our best team come finals time.

Me too, if he’s in it hen we’re not imo. I think we’re a better side without him, he’s much too slow now. Don’t care about the stats, he was a liability tonight and has been all season with his snail pace

 

[wart101]

Gone!

 

[TigerImposter]

Rucking him has probably shortened his career , but in the end he was part of a premiership team which if you’d told me a year ago I would’ve laughed.
Probably should be rested as he looked fatigued so much Cotchin was rucking.
I don’t want to ever see Cotchin in the ruck again as he should be ready to scout and hunt the ball and use his class to dish off. I thought Broad in the ruck against the Eagles was insanity, but this was serious bad s**t.

 

[Trucker Tiger]

Listed first in Richmond’s best on AFL Pravda.

 

[A Tiger 4 lyf]

Thanks grigga but i think retirement is near

I think Cotchin actually wanted to do the rucking to get clear from his tag, SPP was wearing him like a glove
Caddy & Moore were disappointing in the foward line tonight and Miles didnt give us what we needed on the inside

Big Inside Midfielder - We are desperate for a Ball magnet like wines

It looked wrong .

 

[Grrr]

Thought he was our only mid after half time that got his hands regularly on the ball at clearances. (Conca, Lambert and Cotchin not to bad in that respect.)
He does just hack it forward last night, but their mids were way to strong and he at least stood up and got his hands on the ball and shovelled it our way.
But was largely ineffective.

it's even worst when Moore couldn't get into the game and wasn't tried in the ruck.
