Yeah I'm in the same boat as you, he's just not delivering the points as I would have hoped. I'll probably hang onto to him this week because of the Anzac game but next week I'll look to upgrade.

Got right up to the accept button in trading him for Hasleby and stupidly thought "you know what, i'll give him one more game - should tear it up against Richmond".

Cost me about 80 points and $50K.
 
Huge fan of the bloke as a player. Finally looked good with the footy on Friday after several off weeks. 48 points.

My mind's made up.
 
The missus has taken a punt and traded him for Hadley and has now got $175k in the bank and wants to upgrade McPharlin for Jono Brown. If this comes off she will kill me.
 
Looked good? From what I saw his running looked better but that was about it. He dropped a couple of uncontested marks that most short people could take, his possessions and decision making was poor at times (though your right much better than previous weeks). I think its a big confidence issue, which is making it even harder for me to drop him because as soon as I do I know he will start playing much better...

I agree with you, he's playing with no confidence at all. Which is strange because he's the sort of player that back himself to run through 3 players. I'm just worried he's carrying an injury, so Eade isn't playing him in the middle, where he could rack up some serious points.
 
I was just about to start a thread asking this question...it is getting harder to justify retaining him, but this is supposed to be his breakout year - he had 28 touches in a pre-season game, and some journos even had him as a smokie for the Brownlow!!

I'm gonna give him one more week...I said the same for Raines last week and he scored me 83 - here's hoping the faith is rewarded again :thumbsu:
 
Ive pulled the plug on Griffen. I was expecting a breakout year but it just hasnt happened. Picked up Chris Knights instead. If he continues to average upwards of 85 I will be very happy.
 
Who would be the best option to trade for-
rischitelli
rosa
p.burgoyne
pendlebury
knights?

All great options mate...

Issues with Rosa and Knights over gametime, and Burger with injury, safest bets probably Rischa or Pendles...both having gun seasons...
