You don’t think McRae has any input in Grundy leaving?
Let’s assume Grundy is unhappy for some reason and McCrae has unsuccessfully tried to help.
Then the decision to trade him in such circumstances, has nothing to do with Grundy’s ability, or change the fact that McCrae rates Grundy highly as a footballer.

Not disagreeing with you but regarding Point 5, is this what happened? I don't watch VFL so I'm keen on your view
Absolutely. Fly in his presser the week Henry was dumped. explained that he'd been demoted to work on certain aspects of his game, and particularly his defensive pressure. The next period saw his tackles drop to about half of what they had been. Went several games without laying one. He kicked a couple of goals here and there, usually in the last quarter, which has always been his specialty. Other than that, had minimal disposals (I know it's hard for forward pocket forwards to amass touches, so I'm not knocking him). Frankly, however, he played with even more diffidence and lack of engagement than he'd shown in the firsts. I watched almost every one of his VFL games and, like everyone, marveled at his occasional flashes of brilliance; but it seemed clear to me that he'd lost interest.
 
I was looking back on the thread I got banned from - about 70% of the posters respectfully disagreed with me which is fine. The other 30% just hurled abuse. Which I don't care about.
But it's clear the mods were in the 30% group.
That doesn't help with the mods.

Think writings pretty clear spinny. For a multitude of reasons, fly and co want him out

This is definitely the most maths Ned Guy has done since high school. I’d be getting out the calculator.
Port allowed to trade out this years first, their future 1st, 2nd & 3rd whilst regaining a future 2nd & 3rd back.
Scats will have a present first back in in pick 7, possibly future 2nd back for Ratagalea from Port, so Scats future first to Pies Thx AFL

Geelong’s final offer for Collingwood’s mid-forward Ollie Henry will be pick 25 as the Cats hope the Pies relent to hand him a new start down the Princes Highway.

The Cats and Pies have not made ground on a deal for Henry, with Geelong adamant it will not use its No.7 overall selection in a pick slide or swap that would see it securing Collingwood’s No.16 selection.

Geelong and the Suns are expected to lodge the papers for Bowes in the next 24 hours, with the Cats handing over their future third-rounder.

Geelong off-loaded picks 38, 48 and 55 in this year’s draft as well as future second and fourth-round picks to secure that No.25 selection from Brisbane.

The Cats were aware Collingwood wanted a first-round pick for the former No.17 draft selection but could not find a club prepared to off-load a pick in that range.
So they will hope Collingwood eventually relents on an extremely talented player who Geelong sees as uncontracted and not able to remain in the Pies side in the finals.

They do not have any future picks to hand over given they have traded them away and they have picks 25, 58 and 64 in this draft.

Their only option is to trade out Esava Ratugolea for Port Adelaide’s pick 33 and use that selection in part to clinch the deal.

Geelong is steadfast in its desire to retain contracted defender Ratugolea but that could change by the trade deadline.
