Rumour 3AW - rumour Grundy wants back to S.A.

[spenze]

I saying that the trade will be done for a second rounder + a playe

He is absolutely worth every bit of 2 first round picks.

Ridiculous to suggest otherwise, especially considering your club valued a 28 year old Bryce Gibbs at the same value.

Fair enough


Just saying we would be mad to pay that much for a player that goes missing in finals

 

[spenze]

Seriously, Pies Fans

Given i don't want him


Explain why I should spend picks on a player, that isn't up to it in pressure footy?


I don't mind him as a backup to Reilly but I ain't spending on that

As opposed to trading out the same picks for a player who can't even perform in the home and away, to the point where he gets dropped?

Would not trade for.


rather use that first for a guy who will stand up, than Grundy

 

[spenze]

Think Pies fans are a bit keen to get rid of Grundy

After tonight, I can see why

 

[Art Corvelay]

I’m guessing 14 stubbies by the end of the night. Close jumboprince?

 

[Chunky09]

Thanks man...if they keep him, all good. I like a player that plays at one club

But two first picks?

That is for someone that stands up finals

Not Grundy


It would be like me trying to pump up the tyres of Jenkins or Mackay


Just ridiculous

Sure are posting a lot about a player you don't want.

Grundy is one of the most valuable players in the competition. He dominates contests AND is an athletic ruck that contributes around the ground well. If Grundy was linked to my club then I’d be pissed off if we rejected a deal with Collingwood for two first-rounders that included pick 1 because I think that he is Collingwood’s biggest asset (and they have a lot of big assets).

What price you are willing to pay depends on whether you believe you team is in contention though because he is 25 years old.

 

[Soups]

No probs, just stop trying to sell the worst player on GF day as a Gold nugget.

I don't want Grundy, he is a spud.

ruck me, he isn't worth a first round pick, let alone a second first rounder

 

[ManInTheArena]

Don't need him. Teams don't need a gun ruckman to win a premiership as has been demonstrated over and over and over again. Collingwood will want too much and it's not worth trading for. We've got a good enough ruckman to win a flag and would rather trade for a more important position. This would be as dumb as the Gibbs trade.

Are you really comparing Grundy to Gibbs?

Mind blown.

No. I'm comparing how sh*t the trade would be with another trade that was sh*t. We don't need Grundy and he isn't worth what it would cost for the amount he'd add to our premiership chances.

Grundy is worth two first round picks IMO.........Gibbs wasn’t.

Massive difference my friend.

"IMO". Regardless, I said it would be as dumb as the Gibbs trade, I didn't say they were worth the same. We just don't need him.

 

[PAFC_1870]

We just don't need him.

Think O'Brien is the future?

 

[triggyscrewedus]

Comes for free end of next season as FA.
Let it ride this year, get games into ROB.
Two boys at gold coast wanting lockers at West lakes that also needs to be factored in.
Not wasting picks on Grundy when don't need too.

 

[Art Corvelay]

Yeah, Collingwood will allow that to happen, as I’m sure Grundy would

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

I believe Adelaides offer to Grundy will dwarf the Buddy deal.
7 years, $12 million. IMO
Source: someone connected to a club that is neither Pies or crows. And it’s also In His Humble Opinion
Doesn’t mean Grundy will take the offer.
The lure of one club player and that club being Collingwood will set up Grundy for life.
Anyway, let’s see how it plays out.

Lmao, $1.7 million a year for 12 years is ludicrous for any player.

 

[1990crow]

Adelaide would never pay a player that % of the cap, would get irresponsible and downright negligent to fielding a 22 that could compete. One player doesn’t make a team just see Gary Ablett.

 

[Pacman Carney]

7 years.

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

7 years.

My bad - $1.7 million for 7 is still ridiculous though.

 

[Linda_Lovelace]

Not going anywhere, very happy at the club, deal to be announced soon.

 

[Cleric]

Lol, enjoy Reilly O'Brien and a cooked Sam Jacobs then I suppose

Actually ROB has played well the last couple of games. He is good around the ground and is only young.

Ah, the old "good around the ground" smokescreen, to mask mediocre ruckwork.

Well, I suppose Sauce Jacobs made a career of it, so may as well follow on with a similar type.
