Reward for effort for Griff

Griffin has not played AFL football since round 18 last year.

“He’s a really great character Jon, he’s got good values, works really hard and is team orientated,” Lyon said.

“It’s a great story coming back from a (knee) reconstruction he signed when he knew Sandilands and Clarke were in front

“He loves the club and he loves Perth, for me, as a hard nosed football coach, I just want him to play well.”

Fans encourage to support Manna this Saturday

Crozier, Taberner and Sutcliffe all come into the line-up after solid performances for Peel Thunder in their win against East Fremantle last Saturday.
