Just joking.
Hopefully he will be ok.

If Griff beats Jones early who do the saints turn to? Baker.
I think Eade would like it if Baker does not play.;)
Just my 2 cents worth........
Re: Griffen injured at training???
A lot of people I spoke to at training thought Hill would come in for Hooper.
I was surprised how good Stack's skills are
Gia was doing midfield drills
Murph trained down back
Will did heaps of goal kicking, continued with Crossy after all the others went in
Jones has good skills for a big fella
Boyd seemed to miss targets, Harbrow didn't miss one
There were a hell of a lot of high fives and bum slapping, the boys look confident.

Great to hear 1eyedog.Sounds like there is a good feeling around the place after last week.
I saw a Lindsay Gilbee in the 2nd half last week against Sydney that I haven't seen all year. He just had a look about him that meant business.
Re: Griffen injured at training???
Fox Sport News keeps showing footage of Griff walking off from training rubbing (briefly) his left thigh. He's walking as usual (to me anyway). John Barnes has a joke with him as he walks by. The news reader talks over the footage with "bad news from Whitten Oval training today" and "Griffen limps off".
The atmosphere at training today was buzzing. I sat up in the stands to watch, nearby was Dean Laidley looking on. All the boys were looking pretty happy out there and so they should. Prelim 3 years in a row is no mean feat. Get on with the job tomorrow night over St Kilda and next week will be brilliant. I can visualise Johnno and Rocket holding that cup up on the dais tomorrow week ...

Western Bulldogs have just said Griffen suffered hamstring tightness and they'll see how he pulls up. They're hoping he plays.
Re: Griffen injured at training???
****.
I saw Griff leave the field early holding his left thigh/hamstring and immediately asked the question if he had done something.

Saw laidley coming out of nthe Elite Training Centre, not sure of he is helping out or just wondering around? Would be interseting if he was helping Rocket with some strategies. Wouldn't he be a great acquistion for the club, if we could afford him.

He'd be on a substantially better wicket, but with talk Leon Cameron is moving on would he be a chance to be senior assistant coach in charge of the midfield?
His biggest gripe as a coach was lack of football department resources, in particular training facilities, maybe he was checking ours out. Probably unlikely though, you'd think if he was he wouldn't do it in such a public forum.

Heard him yesterday saying he had an hour or so meeting with Essendon, so he is keen on a senior coaching role.
Re: Griffen injured at training???
This getting KGB like! Personally I think they're playing games trying to flush out If Baker is playing. Funny the usual spiel is "He's right to play",not we're "hopeful"if he wasn't playing.
Just hope to frigging Christ he turns out !!!!

I'd say this one wins as understatement of the century AP :D.
