How?
He's no good. He's easily sucked in by sledging/wrestling and gives away free kicks, he lumbers around the ground with no apparent purpose for the most part, and he provides almost nothing aside from his physical presence and the occasional mark and goal. I don't buy the development line, either. He doesn't have the right attitude.Agree - What has he shown that he a Dud?
I have no idea how people can even think that
And according to you no Collingwood player is any good... That old chestnut.Nope and it's the other way around. According to you, every Collingwood player is a superstar.

I'd take Witts before Grundy. Witts shows courage, works to create opportunities for his teammates, bothers to influence the contest, and to cap it off, he doesn't get drawn into petty squabbles with the opposition.
No none at all, it's purely based on your time machine you have in the backyard, get a brain.Grundy is rubbish. I'd take Wright.
There's no anti-Collingwood bias there, either, so don't bother playing that card. I like Collingwood.
Wright easily.
Grundy is a dick, not long now before he has a run in with Bucks and asked to be traded, then it will be a case of only runs one way, was a negative influence on the playing group....

Ill agree with that, though i know Grundy is working ALOT on his tank in the off-season i think he need to turn his anger onto the ball and not the player, he does though have a big leap on him and if he can get his timing right i cannot see him losing many centre bounces, towards the end of the season i think he and witts just started to click and started taking the big marks if you see rounds 21,22,23 you will see that and also taking a mark in the forward line with cloke gone due to injury
and How do you know this? You are not part of the Inner Sanctum at Collingwood
My issue isn't with his endurance, it's with his attitude. He channels any aggression he has into moronic disputes with opposition players, and he doesn't work hard enough from the first bounce.He is a Young Tall. Not all Young Talls have Great Endurance. I like he has some Aggression. He is learning the Mental Side of the Game.
Oh, boo hoo. Tall poppy syndrome, right? Wrong. I attend all Collingwood MCG games with a Pies-mad family member, and I've enjoyed watching the progression of a few of the guys - Jamie Elliott is my favourite non-Bulldog in the AFL.No none at all, it's purely based on your time machine you have in the backyard, get a brain.

Incorrect again.And according to you no Collingwood player is any good... That old chestnut.
Great he can beat a bloke with a debilitating ankle injury!Well in the VFL Game he played against you. He Destroyed Tom Bellchambers.
Name any 20 year old Ruckman that has played 20 or more games.
Shows how Little you know
Wouldn't say rubbish, but his mental lapses and lack of fitness don't really help his cause. Nothing that can't be fixed though.Also, has there been a sudden spate of 19/20-year-old ruckmen dominating the league that I somehow missed? I'd like to know what others expect of second year ruckman to label Grundy "rubbish".
Agree - What has he shown that he a Dud?
I have no idea how people can even think that
Great he can beat a bloke with a debilitating ankle injury!
Too easy:
McIntosh
Leuenberger
Stanley
Kreuzer
Z.Smith
Jamar
Hale
Ryder
Vickery
K.Tippett
Natanui
And that's just the blokes still on senior lists.
The irony of that last sentence
Stupid poll.
But you can spot people who don't have a high football IQ judging a tall player on 2 years of work.
Either way, Peter Wright is a poorman's Darcy Moore
Wow, beaten to 20 games by four guys who were top 10 draft picks. Grundy really must be terrible, and struggling to get a game in comparison
Shit argument, what quality rucks at Collingwood is he competing for a game with? A 50yo retired 10 times Hudson and another kid.
