We all know Grime's will come in(if fit),but who goe's out?

No need for the apostrophes in Grimes and goes.

I still believe that Griffiths should be kept in as a tall utility, to relieve Maric in the ruck or elsewhere.

One of the ineffectual small/mediums should go, if Grimes comes in.

You left an "a'' out between as and tall.

Also thought the comma between 'should go' and 'if Grimes' in the last sentence might be superfluous (I hope I spelt that right). We should have a poll.

No, the comma should be there.

As "if Grimes ..." is part of an introductory phase, there needs to be that comma.

In this case, the introductory phrase was placed after the predicate, but the comma should still be there.

Would you like me to create one?

Maybe one on PREnders' favourite rule relating to the use of commas.
 
My Grammar actually went into a comma before she died.

Does this help?

Commas in grammar

Commas can be frustrating for some.

At school, we often learn rules regarding their use - some correct, some incorrect.

Personally, I find the use of the correct preposition as my biggest challenge.

Here's your opportunity on commas.

I agree with this.

Re: Commas in grammar

I heard Comma can really play - is he a forward, or a small?

Reminds me of the Gooleys at Sandringham in the mid-2Ks. Will Thursfield and I would often remember them.

The Browns of North Ballarat were more conspicuous.
