Shaun Grigg
Shaun Grigg (born 19 April 1988) is a former professional Australian rules footballer who played 171 games for Richmond and 43 games for Carlton over a 13-year AFL career. He was a premiership player with Richmond in 2017, an Under 18 All Australian and twice placed in the top five in Richmond club best and fairests.
Grigg grew up in the Victorian country town of Linton, 33 kilometres south-west of Ballarat. He attended high school at St Patrick's College. He was part of the school's First XVIII football side which won the coveted Herald Sun Shield in 2005. He played with Redan in his younger years before joining the North Ballarat Rebels in the TAC Cup. In 2006 he represented the Victorian Country side at the national Under 18 championships where he won All-Australian selection. At the 2006 AFL Draft Combine he recorded a top 10 time in the 20 metre sprint.
Grigg was selected by Carlton with the club's second pick and the 19th overall in the 2006 AFL National draft.
He suffered a shoulder injury early in the 2007 season and struggled as a result. He played matches early in the season with Carlton's VFL-affiliate, the Northern Bullants. Grigg made his AFL debut against Melbourne in Round 14, 2007 and played a total of 5 games for the season.
Grigg earned a regular position in the Carlton team throughout 2008, playing 20 senior games and receiving a nomination for the NAB Rising Star award in Round 19. He kicked his first career goal in Round 4, 2008 in a match against Collingwood.
Over the next two seasons however, Grigg struggled to play regularly in the senior side, playing only a combined total of 18 games for the club.
In October 2010 Grigg asked to be traded from the Carlton Football Club with Richmond his desired trade destination. He cited a desire for greater on-field opportunities as his key reason for seeking the move. A deal was finalised eight days later, with Grigg involved in a straight swap for Tigers' midfielder Andrew Collins. He had played 43 games for the club over his four-year tenure.
Grigg made his debut for Richmond in Round 1 of the 2011 season in a match against his former club Carlton at the MCG. He finished his first season at Richmond having played 21 games and recording an average of 22 disposals per game. It was a then-career best year in all major statistical categories including total disposals, marks, tackles and goals.
