If I remember correctly, the next game or two after the Rance ACL was tough and Grimes didn’t actually perform that well. And we all thought we were stuffed. BUT he dug deep and TURNED IT AROUND because he has massive cahoonas!!

Listening to all the retirement speeches this week just shows what dedication players need. Dylan no less than anyone. And it's amazing how people will repay you in spades if you show faith in them when they need it most.
A deserving Captain of the club. His 2019 was phenomenal for what he was able to do after Rance went down. He was a great player before that but he lifted and became even better. What a champion.

Yeah, he was a champion, is a champion and to do what he did overcoming his injuries then holding us together after Rance was not there, amazing and such a big heart!!
A great of our footy club and a little quite achiever that will never be forgotten and surprised a few outside I think.
One could depend on Dylan, so reliable
Privileged to see a fair bit of the 2017 finals including the GF and 2019 live. Hard not to get caught up in it.
Two players stood out apart from Dusty, Cotchin and Grimes - only ever got to see them live a few times but geez what the did without the ball was truly inspiring.
Celebrate them long and hard. They were up there with the best of there type across any age

Riveting...so knowledgable...hope we do not lose him to other clubs...hope he comes back to the RFC as a defensive coach!
Thanks for sharing that.
Was a great listen.
Really enjoyed Dylan talking about that motivation he had throughout his career about being overlooked amongst other players in his draft year.
Love hearing that sort of thing

The story about the Jordan McMahon goal after the siren altering our draft picks is a crock
We would have got Dusty at pick 1 regardless
We would have got Grimes in the RD if we didn't have a senior list spot.
