Griffin

[Crow-mo]

Re: Griffen

Yes, but Griffin was our lead ruckman in the games he played this year whereas Warnock had Sandilands in front of him. And Griffin is older. But with the exception of Griff's games against Carlton and North Melbourne, their output has clearly been similar. You can argue against that all you want, but it won't make you right.

It's also a worthless argument, because I completely agree that Griffin is a very promising ruckman who has a good career ahead of him.

There's no need to get blue in the face if I think Warnock is slightly more promising. There's plenty of people who agree with me, as will be seen if they're traded next month. If Griffin fetches more for Adelaide than Warnock does for Freo I'll happily be proven wrong.

why do you bother?

Channel 9 trotted out the old

Warnock to Carlton

Griffin to Fremantle

Something to the Crows - no details of course

in their sports news tonight.

Obviously no-one on Channel 9 listens to 5AA as they would have heard Craig emphatically saying last week that Griffin is going nowhere as he is contracted and a required player, and further to that has indicated to Craig that he wants to stay here.

Still that might have ruined a good rumour - and they need something for their news with no SA side left in the finals.

They don't know what to do without SA teams in the finals, hence I think they've just been reading Bigfooty again, soon they'll be discussing "rumours" about trading Johncock for a 5th rounder, Jericho for Gibbs, Mackay for a 2nd rounder, Didak for a 1st rounder plus Reilly and Knights and Lovett for basically any other player I havn't mentioned, probably Torney.

Na that was in reference to the crows looking for a forward, they said we were trying to lureJustin Koschitzke across. They also said we were looking at Brad Fisher and one other (name escapes me)
