I disagree mate. Maybe it shows he has confidence that it will be renewed.
I'm sure Grigg has been on a one year contract for a couple of years.
Other players have as well. I remember Brent Guerra and maybe a few others saying it kept them on the edge to perform, rather than have a multi year contract, that they could "relax" a bit more

i'd say the opposite, if he is happy to sign a 1yr it suggests he is backing himself to get another year. or he has no other options.
players who walk cos they are only 1 year clearly dont have the confidence to back themselves to earn another contract.

Agree, eg:Grigg early last year, was hoping for the same for 2017. He didn't care he would be yr to yr contract. He wanted to stay at the club. He got it in the end and was rapt. Now a premiership player.
If he is confident in accepting a one year deal to me it means he can maximise the bidding war next year for his services after he proves he isn't a five game wonder.
This sort of contract doesn't always work in the club's favour.
Weren't they saying in this trade period that clubs will tend to pay more in salary to out of contract players since they don't have to give up picks to the club as well as $$ to the player.

Townsend should have kicked three in the GF but gave one to (who missed).
He is the third forward we have not had for many years.
Ideal finals player.
Been a revelation and full credit to him.
I think he will offer plenty in the years ahead and will get a bigger and longer contract next year.

According to his wikipedia page he is the first "inaugural Giant" to win a premiership medal.
Is that true?
Quite a feather in our cap methinks.

Only if they are back dating premierships.
Did you research that or did you just know it?
