Arguably Rhodes and McCormack because they play at a higher level

Griffiths is an excellent striker at domestic level. He failed to make the breakthrough in England and has done nothing at international level. Those are the facts.

Whether he has improved as a player in the last few years since he came back to Scotland will only be answered if and when he plays in a better standard of league.

When looking at who is better you have to take into account the professionals. Ie the scouts whose jobs it is to bring players to clubs. Did any clubs make a move for Griffiths in the last 2 years during which time both McCormack and Rhodes have made big money moves. During which time Fletcher and Martin have moved Championship clubs.

If no moves have been made by these people for Griffiths then why not? Is it possibly the case that they dont think he is better?

Simply saying Griffith is the best because he scored 40 goals against poor teams whilst playing for by far and away the most dominent team does nothing.

Fair points re Rhodes and McCormack. Astonishing they can't even get in the squad though.

Poor stuff from both sides.  Both keepers have had one good save and I would say we are edging it, but only because the game is being played predominantly in the Aberdeen half. Very little end product from us, and overall very frantic. 

Agreed. Can only see one goal in this.

In fairness though - thats not to say that Griffiths wont prove he can do the business in time

Can't argue with the result. Piss poor from both sides and we continue to defend like school kids. Again I thought we just shaded it, second half, on the balance of play, without really creating much.  A goal fitting to win any match. Not convinced it was a foul, but thems the breaks. Ref had a very good game imo. 

Anyway all the best to anyone that had an interest today, particularly SMcoolJ, Parkie and AberdeenAngus. Gid Loons :D

Enjoy it.......ya bastards :(
