Joel Griffiths =O

this must be the signing herby was refering to when he was drunk as a skunk at the realm bar on melborne cup day.

Apparently he digs our style of play.... wtf

Too little too late....when he gets here in Jan it will be too late.

Negative town!

Is weird,one of my best nix memories is him getting sent off. Now he's playing for us

 

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I'd rather someone else.

Fixed

At least he will add a bit of pace to our team

Pretty much, Besides maybe Elrich.

There's been some interesting Nix recruitments over these few years we've had the pleasure but this one sure will take the cake!
Many a fond memory of giving Joel Griffiths heaps in the fever zone  or screaming at him on the telly..
That sending off at the RoF was an epic mass "Who are Ya " moment, when I remember feeling smugly self-righteous for thinking he was such a prick and after all,  he had it coming!
Well maybe you'll get the last laugh Joel Griffiths. if you do the job for the Phoenix we'll probably all be happy to eat the humble pie you serve up

..well not quite all!! HN excepted.

Nope.  Kruse, Burns.

well....it's gunna be interesting seeing him in a 'Nix shirt...

hope he scores heeeeps....anyother fringe soceroo wannabes we can call up?

Chris Payne could be a Handy player.

and like someone mentioned...Killen?

ehhh....still...might be ok....worst case scenario a good boxing match....

Well...........who would have thought? Joel Griffith at the Nix. Good player IMO but WTF.

Nuh I like this =D he is my mates brother inlaw. When I met him he seemed like a nice guy. Good eye for goals (which is a plus)

On the pitch he is a self-aggrandising c**t of Kruse proportions.  It's going to take him being a completely different person for me to be happy to see him in black and yellow.

Amen to that.

And more age.

This and a bucket load of goals even then its going to bloody hard to cheer him.Like "K" is for HN he is it for me.

bollocks to all this "ooohhh, I don't really like him so I am not sure how I will react to him being a phoenix player".  As soon as he pulls on the shirt, he is one of us - end of story.  If (and it is a massive if) he turns out to be a useless, lazy, disruptive tosspot c**t him off all you like, but until that day comes (and it won't - mark my words) we welcome him to the club with open arms, we cheer every peice of brilliance and we forgive every mistake, just like we do with all our other players

I won't boo him.  That's the best I've got.

You not read any recent match day threads franki,that dosnt happen with those already with us,fat chance he has.

Not really sure why he is called nut cracker.I always thought it was the female assistant ref he had a go at.So wouldnt that make him a snatch smacker.

Appearantly he's a changed man now... 

Found God? Partial lobotomy?

c**techtomy?

Great signing.  True #9.  I think he'll work well with Greenacre.  Just my 2c.

...
he shoots
he misses
his name is Joel Griffiths?

I dunno . . do we really need him?
well, I suppose the last 3 games answers that question doesn't it?

Very good signing. This guy has been the MVP of the A league and the golden boot. The fact that his personality is questionable at best is irrelevant when you look at his record. We need to win games and score goals, and Joel will help us do that.

I'll give you that one despite it's obvious lack of truth.

One ugly chick

This. So much this.

can we get two goals down payment in advance this weekend? Browns suspended and Iffys outa form...

gotta use that vid in a Phoenix ad

 

Mmmmm. . . . if there is a coach in the A-League that can handle him, surely Ricki can. Look we don't have to love the guy, only need to accept him as he is for the team.

At the moment the way things are going, it's a two way street, he has to get along with us and if he can do that, then we can get along with him as well. Former international players that play for us, soon learn to get back into their respective national squad in good form and they would have Ricki to thank for it.

Can't hurt to see if he fits in well enough. Might the shot in the arm for the team we are looking for. We need some pace up front as well as a finisher of note, let see what he got for us.

decent proven player, decent signing imo. i don't really give a sh*t about his actions in the past, if he can score us goals and shows his hunger when in and around the box I'll be happy. I mean he'll do a better job than Mac in supporting Greenie for sure.

 

Remember when we signed Liam reddy and there was all this "Why did we sign him?? hes a cocky prick" well he turned out to be a major cause in our run in the playoffs. So as soon as Griffiths pulls on that jersey, does something brilliant, salutes the fever, we should support him like we do for Ifill or Dura..

I concur.
