Thanks for the premiership Grigga. This decision shows the Tigers of 2017-2019 as opposed to early years. We would have kept him on in years gone by and he would not have called time. Well done to everyone involved. Ruckman or inside mid please. Leaning more towards the inside mid.

Yep. It was a great passage of play by him. From memory he cleared the ball from the centre and roughly 10 seconds later after it pinballed around in the forward line for a bit he was there again in the thick of a contested situation handballing it out to Lambert for the goal. Great stuff.
I'll freely admit I wasn't always his biggest fan. It took a lot for him to win me over but that's more on me than him. He has been a great servant of the club and his 2017 and 2018 seasons were fantastic. He's a premiership hero and for that the supporters will forever be grateful. Plus the bonus of screwing Carlton over in the deal to get him :hihi
Well done Grigga and all the very best for the next stage of your life :clap
More father sons please! ;D
Ultimate clubman to the end. Selfless decision to retire to give someone else the opportunity.
Hope he stays around the club. Will be interesting to see whether his elite footy brain translates to elite coach.
All the best Grigga!

Gee, haven't best mates Lids and Grigg had different ends to the twilight of their careers!
Sadly for Lids that Grigg will always be a club hero.

Well done Shaun. Consistency of output was exceptional and was pretty reliable at converting the goal scoring chances he got. Always enjoyed his work on TT too.

Three cheers for Grigg.
I officially forgive him for being a Carlton player.
I remember a study I did once on which players played well in tough games.
Grigg was the standout. The definition of "uphill skiier".
He was the only player who had a good game EVERY single time it was a tight match or against top opposition.

Early day whipping lad (unjustified), art of the helicopter kick, premiership player/ruckman, overall GOOD BLOKE.
This for 6 in a row for the Tigers, - GF Q3 2017

In his time at Richmond he would be very close to the most consistent and durable in that time. Rarely played a bad game, super hard runner and extreme footy iq.
Simply a bloody good footballer who made players around him better.
Does it get any better then been remembered as a Richmond football club Premiership player

All the best Grigga. Premiership hero, mate of Dusty, and a knife in cartoon hearts all through 2017/18.
Came to a club who was not respected.
Leaves it now as a juggernaut, a club that despite injuries is still feared and who only play ferocious.
