They're paying what 300k? We're paying 600k. Is he playing like a 600k player? No. He's also playing Gawn out of form. The experiment hasn't worked imo and rucks are overrated.
Grundy is playing horrible footy. I knew he wasn't known for his skills but geez he is bad. At one stage he earned a free and a port player threw the ball back to him softly and he still dropped the ball.
I have always thought rucks are over rated, would rather spend the salary cap money on another good midfielder and a run of the mill ruck who breaks at least even in most contests.
Collingwood even with their big man injuries seem to be travelling fine without Grundy.
He was good for the Dees when Gawn was out injured.

10% of it? You are so so so welcome. Pleasure doing business
We have discussed this before and you know very well it’s well above 10%.
You are continually deluded.
You’re right it’s about 15%. Thanks again
Cute. Even if these numbers were correct we’re still winning. But they aren’t so we’re winning by a lot
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
At least Casey will have their ruck sorted for 2024-2027
Surprised you know of Jack Bell, he is doing well in the 2s with back up from Schache.
Might have to run water, unless Brodes wants to second ruck in the VFL too?
I don’t think so, now go away……you are just embarrassing yourself now.
One you’ll learn old chap. Thanks for taking him off our hands

I don’t know by you insist on being wrong. We aren’t debating - I’m telling you you’re wrong
I’ll leave that to you

The problem is they are both genuine #1 rucks who can't play anywhere else nor get into their proper rhythms given the split they need.
It was a risky move at the time and just doesn't look like it will pay dividends however give the way the Lever/May recruiting went and was laughed at early days who knows if this can find a way to work

I wish you were right. He's been disappointing this season. If only we could dump his salary and get Gawn back to his AA best. What a disaster signing by the dees.
Has gone how I expected and couldn't understand all the over the top excitement from most in the media,
Neither Gawn nor Grundy are capable forwards and can only play as a number 1 ruck however the issue is they both need 65%+ time in the ruck to get properly involved which is obviously not possible.
Sadly by the looks of things you look set to have another couple of years dealing with this
