Richmond key forward, Ben Griffiths has committed to the Club for a further two years.

Griffiths put pen to paper on a new two-year contract that will see him remain at Tigerland until at least the end of 2018.

I am an athiest....but God help us all!!

Let's hope his helmet is not part of the new contract

 

[tunksy]

Hope he clicks next year. Took some good steps this year but didnt consolidate it. A forward line of just him jack (playing deeper) and lennon with lloyd rioli and a resting mid should be good.

 

[duzzy]

he should get a purple heart for his bravery--- or a purple helmet/

 

[WATiger86]

Hopefully he can build on a few very good performances this year and become a consistent player for us... we desperately need him to!

Is on a good wicket knowing he is now the only tall for the CHF position

...besides Jack who is now a HBF
...and maybe Elton who has played CHB for 4 years, but in the last 2 games is a CHF..or ...HF...but when the shit goes down is a CHB)

Don't worry. We have Travis Cloke coming to be our saviour.

Call me an optimist but I still think with a bit of luck with injury, this bloke can become a gun forward. And as a resting ruckman, he had Vickery well and truly covered.

Who really knows though. I feel like we're all destined to live an unfulfilled life as Tigers. Supporters and players alike.

 

[tunksy]

So i guess him signing means vickery is 100% out the door

The way the list is at the moment the Club couldn't really afford to lose them both at once and IMO Griffith's is the better option of the two.

Took that straight to the gutter didn't you ....kudos

 

[NZ_Tiger]

No other choice once Ty left. Hopefully he's on small coin.

Agreed. Honestly be happy if we just play jack and griff as the talls and then put players like lloyd rioli maybe lennon and a mid. Play jack deep again and griff higher up so is forced to maintain his work rate. Griff needs to get really fit over summer.

With TV going this was pretty much assured

 

[NaturalDisaster]

I like this bloke, he frustrates me but I like him.

God he is a strong mark, definitely a type we need... But we need him to be consistent.

As people have mentioned in other threads, he performs better without Vickery in teh side, so I think once he is gone, Griffs will thrive.

 

[captain cotch 9]

I have a feeling his highlight reel is going to show a pretty good player.
But over all he isnt that flash.
He just dosnt kick enough goals

See how he goes without vickery in the team. Imo we should only play two talls. Jack and griff.

Don't laugh, would be our second best KPF.... and by some margin!

I'm not adverse to getting him actually as long it's for nicks.

I'm the same, 3rd rounder or less = Bring the prodigal son home Dave!

 

[A Tiger 4 lyf]

Now keep him inside 50 ffs, Deep

 

[Speedie41]

Benny Griffiths' really havin' a party now.

With Ty probably leaving and McBean getting dumped, keeping Griffiths at the club makes sense for the short term while we develop another tall forward.
