JAKE KING & SHAUN GRIGG - CONGRATULATIONS 100 GAMES

[THE_GUN]

Congratulations to Jake (pushup) King for Playing 100 games next week against North Melbourne
This guy has come so far under Dimma and has really contributed to creating a new never die and always fight ethos at punt road

Whilst not the most talented or skilled person at the club he has been as integral to the tigers climb as any other player - He Bleeds Yellow & Black

Well Done Mate

No love for Shaun Grigg? Also plays his 100th.

Both have been great players for the club for very different reasons.

 

[Madtiger2006]

I reckon we'll smash them next week. They've pipped us about 5 times in a row by under a goal including nab games

 

[Crow_Sting]

Congrats to both lads.
Have come a long way under a new coach and fit into our gameplan nicely.

Am I right in believing its Cotchins 100th in Cairns next week?

For once it is us who has the milestone game vs Norf

 

[Ned_Flanders]

Gotta feel for Grigg, gets his 100 games and no-one will GAF because Kingy will get all the attention

Also wonder if Jake will let him run through the banner with him

Amazing effort from Push Up to get to the 100 games milestone. Started off as a nuggety back pocket who lacked skill and I used to call him the 'turnover king' because he would cough up easy goals all the time. I also admit I wanted him delisted. How wrong I was and his switch forward has proven a masterstroke. He is now a favourite at Tigerland and for supporters doing a defensive forward job and also kicking goals, and also provides great leadership in the forward line (case in point 8 goals to 3 in the first quarter against the crows last year - king goes off injured and the crows run the ball out of our forward line with ease and end up winning the game) where he is super important to our forward structure.

Well done Jake! Lets celebrate your 100th game in style with a win against Norf!!

Well done Push Up, you have changed your game and become a very damaging small forward. Given the finger to everyone (literally everyone, including me) who said you were not good enough to play AFL.
Never been so glad to have been proven wrong. You are what is right about the sport!

Griggy came across to Richmond for the very popular (on this board at least) Andy Collins as a fringe player at the Blues. Since his switch he has played every game bar 1 iirc. Mostly on a wing he has become a very damaging player who runs hard to provide a link from defence to attack. Has been maligned at times this year I think mostly because of a lack of duds in our team for people to pick on. Averaging 20+ possessions this year and regularly hits the scoreboard. Knows where to run and does so tirelessly often for no reward. Is doing the number 6 proud.

Congrats Griggy, well done on reaching 100, so glad we rescued you from a life at the Blues, lets have a big win on the weekend!!

 

[RichoLedio]

Can't wait to have three or four King juniors running around causing havoc for the opposition

 

[Darth_Tiger]

How did I miss this thread? Oh well

WELL DONE LADS!!!!!!!!

 

[Kamikaze]

Best highlights package !

Plenty of va va voom, some slick moves and impressive ferocity.

still remember the r1 game v blues probably his best from the back pocket where he was a tackle machine. Not all his targets had the ball but he crunched em anyway, Kingy says GRRRR!

Can't wait to see him in the finals!
