Griffin is going to be a very good player imo. A young player who I think will be very similar to Hinchy in his ability to play lock/hooker.
Big call time... I think he'll be a Kiwi international inside 3 years

Fair comparison and it looks a lot like he will be given the Hinchy role. I'm just no sure why we need two of them, specially with a big pack like Souths.
Still not sure what Vave has done wrong to get shafted every 2nd week. Bellamy obviously doesn't like something he's doing.

I agree, I'd prefer another big bloke instead of Griffin. That's nothing against Griffin, more to do with how good we have been with the extra big guy on the bench.
And lining up like we did last week after Blair went down is not such a bad idea either. The Canberra game was even until that point. Tohu at centre in attack, switching with Cronk in defence.
I'd still eventually like too see Mahe be given some time in NSW/QLD Cup at centre to see how his defence can develop there. Would eliminate any high ball weakness and allow him to focus on his devastating running game.

Congrats to Finch on 50 games for the Storm. The first player in history to play 50+ games for 4 different clubs.
Melbourne usually make a big deal about milestones and do their best to make sure the milestone is in a winning game. We don't need any more motivation but a milestone game always helps.
Side note - Fichy's selfless act of passing to Mahe for his first hat-trick last week when he could have easily scored himself. Tip of the hat sir! You are a class act.

Personally, I think Tohu will fill in on the right with Chambers shifting to the right. Big game for a debutant if it happens.
Either way, totally pumped for this one. Hopefully there is a massive, loud crowd.

that would be sick if he was..
Mattpoet Richie is playing on the wing in NYC. He looked like he may have injured his leg about 3 or 4 minutes before half time.Mattpoet wrote:Kennar not playing nyc. Late inclusion in fg?
There is supposedly going to be a big announcement at 7pm. I wonder if that will be the sponsorship announcement from earlier in the week.
