Quick Facts
Biography
Griffin Logue (born 13 April 1998) is a professional Australian rules footballer playing for the Fremantle Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL). He was drafted by Fremantle with their first selection and eighth overall in the 2016 national draft. He made his debut in the sixteen point win against the Western Bulldogs at Domain Stadium in round three of the 2017 season.
Griffin's uncle is basketballer Andrew Vlahov and his grandparents, Eva and Len Vlahov, were track and field athletes. He went to Guildford Grammar School where he was in the school first XVIII. He also represented the school in the 1st VIII for rowing.
Late in the round 15 match against St Kilda, Logue gave away a crucial 50-metre penalty after he failed to correctly return the ball to Nick Riewoldt, who had fooled Logue into thinking that he had taken a mark inside forward 50; in fact, it was Tim Membrey who took the mark, and he would later kick a goal from the 50-metre penalty to give his side a nine-point win. Logue later copped criticism from coach Ross Lyon following the incident, being told to "sharpen up".
