Universal Love Brodie Grundy man love (bumped, see post #909)

I've been thinking of how the form of Grundy and even Witts our immediate rucking future and what this means for our trade period goals. If Hudson retires again and we can get one more year out of Jolly then we may not need another experienced ruckman as an interim. Grundy has been promising as the number one ruck and if we can use Jolly to help him out next year with Witts intermittently then we will be more than ok. Should probably look to get another VFL ruck on the rookie list just in case though.

Agree we will need a backup but probably a VFL standard ruckman. Cam Wood maybe? That would be funny!! Take him on base wage!

Give him nothing, he still owes us!!

I think this will have to be the case as i see Jolly and Hudson retiring, if either was going to stay, I'd say maybe Hudson at this stage as Jolly can't even move anymore. We can't have just two ruckmen on the list so we'll need at least one backup.

I agree. We should look for someone like a Stephenson to crash and bang in the reserves and fill in when needed in the seniors. Witts and Grundy need to be our main men though.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Held his own against Mumford and Pyke all night and didn't look out of place at all. He's our next premiership ruckman.

 

[absy]

This guy... no preseason... injured for the start of the year.. what the hell. Awesome!

He was sucking in some big ones towards the end there, will he get up for next week or does he get a week off?

 

[Who_can_say]

Vanished in the second half. Looked obviously uncomfortable with his fitness, but I think that's to be expected! He is going to be a superstar.

This season!

Astounding. 19 year old kids aren't supposed to be able to do this. The guy is an athletic freak, and even better than that, he has a desire to hurt people. He can kick, dummy, and handball, the dude looks like a #1 pick already. Massive kudos to Port, Brisbane, GWS, Gold Coast, Footscray, and anyone else who needed midfielders. Cheers!!

 

[Prestigerrycomo]

Look he was monstered a bit tonignt. But he never gave up and his 2nd efforts were outstanding. He held his own against am experienced ruckman. my god this guy is going to be an absolute gun!

 

[mattys123]

HE GOT A GOAL, FINALLY.

And that goal was on the end of our best piece of play for the year, awesome moment.

 

[hellfire]

He held his own in my opinion.

He even out bodied Mumford a few times. We have a serious player on our hands.

 

[Baird]

Still can't believe he fell to pick 18

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

Grundy played a very good game and won a number of ruck contests himself, as well as constantly competing around clearances at ground level. His around the ground work is outstanding for someone so inexperienced. He is the best bargain I can remember in a draft. He did not look outclassed by Mumford. We do not need to recruit another ruck for next year.

 

[biggiemediums]

Look he was monstered a bit tonight. But he never gave up and his 2nd efforts were outstanding. He held his own against am experienced ruckman. my god this guy is going to be an absolute gun!

He was definitely not monstered. He was out-positioned a few times by one of the best. He's doing alright. HE'S DOING ALRIGHT.

 

[legendstatus]

Gee must have watching another game, Grundys contested body work was superb tonight! Against those monsters, absolutely brilliant tonight.

 

[Chief Ten Beers]

Needs serious backup though, can't burn him out like Fraser. Grundy gave Mummy and Pike and those other Sydney flogs a good workout tonight as a teenager in his 3rd AFL game.

 

[blaze036]

We seriously need to work on locking this kid away for a long time, clubs are going to come HARD in a few years for his signature.

Thankfully he looks like a loyal type of guy who doesn't think money is everything

 

[popin]

He's new name is THE SMART BEAST OR THE BEAST! Thanks to your basketball background you are the greg williams of ruckmen compared to the rest.;-) HE IS THE HULk, long live the HULK army!

 

[purrrrrrrrrrfect]

He'll serve your club well once Jolly is done, even though there my be a few yrs gap from when Jolly finishes until he reaches his full potential & makes number #1 ruck his own.
That tap to swanny was just sublime

 

[Geelong_Bisons_#36]

Looks like a serious prospect.
Has size and is aggressive.
Has clean hands and poise (amazing poise for a rookie) around the ground.
Will learn the ruck craft as he goes on but holds his own in there at the moment. Him and Witts make a great future combo.

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

This guy is a gun, rucked beautifully tonight, some of his taps to position were brilliant, and was positioning himself in ruck contests like a 100 game ruckman. Is going to be hard to displace from the side!

He won't "burn out" though, his backside tells ya as much.
