" Rule is back

 

[theiaofseed]

Lack of engagement

I guess his mentor role to Ward and MacDonald is made up? He's heavily engaged.

 

[Billyc]

I’m pretty comfortable backing Reeves in as number 1 ruck for the next 5-6 years. Grundy wouldn’t be who I’d be looking to bring in, but he is an elite player at his best.

 

[CHUBBSS]

I guess his mentor role to Ward and MacDonald is made up? He's heavily engaged.

Based on what I heard doesn’t seem like it, from a footy sense, but maybe his checked out with the injury..

It would make sense why he has seemed heavier to some across this season tho

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Lack of engagement

Jesus - harsh to trade the bloke just because he hasn’t found a bride to be.

 

[perrdan86]

How much of his salary would the Pies be paying per year?

300k was what I saw reported on twitter.

 

[macdaddio]

Bargain. Definitely worth giving it a try but it seems the Dees are in the box seat

 

[Toasted]

Lynch is always either injured or concussed so he can’t blame us for looking for another option.

has he been injured? I thought it was a bee sting and a couple of concussions.

 

[killerspud]

Wouldn't be interested in Grundy personally.
Great player, incredibly talented, but the capital required to get the deal done isn't worth it given where we are in our rebuild.
Let the Wobbles suffer with their high priced contracts and focus on building our next generation of rucks.
Ramsden seems to be developing rapidly and showing a lot, Lynch is a serviceable enough ruckman and Reeves is our centrepiece for the next 7-10 years.

This is what I mean by the salary dump never working for us. It only helps Collingwood we get a injury prone 28 year old and they get breathing space for the next generation of players

 

[Blackhawk42]

He was on radio recently mentioning that he put on size in the gym on purpose because he thought it would make him a stronger inside midfielder.

He also said he knows he played too heavy as a result and he'll be starting pre-season early and look to strip off some of that size.

ELITE SINGLE LIFESTYLE

Get Taranto !
How can Richmond or collingwood get him when we have a better draft pick? Not sure why we aren’t

He's a young Tom Mitchell. Pass thanks.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

I’m all in on trading Worpel, heard some interesting things recently

Pray tell mate

 

[HedgeFund]

has he been injured? I thought it was a bee sting and a couple of concussions.

Paddy McCartin missed effectively 3 seasons of footy and was delisted due to 8 repeat concussions.

Both Reeves and Lynch have missed more games through injury / concussion than they’ve played in their fledgling careers.

Our ruck stocks are extremely thin

downhill skier type. What would they part with for bramble?

 

[Stratton24]

Lack of engagement

He is a training machine. If anything he needs to cut back to strike the best balance. He’s been putting in extra work on video reviews with our young mids since his injury and doing a lot of extra charity work as well.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

I heard this morning that Essendon are looking for another quick hbf nick hind downhill skier type. What would they part with for bramble?

He can't defend, but if they are after someone who can run and use it well then he's their man.

Reckon he's worth a third rounder.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Don’t think he fits with the kind of player we want, plus he most likely won’t come cheap at the trade table.

. I think he is the perfect fit for us. He's an Unrestricted Free Agent as well which makes it even sweeter. He is 26 so really fits our age profile, I think he's a real need for us. The Bulldogs have just resigned so many players and he remains unsigned. I really feel we need to make a hard play for him. Can play Fwd and can also play Mid exactly the player we should be looking at.

 

[chopflop]

Clarko looks to be confirmed as roos coach soon. Lots of whispers about mid round pp's and end of first round pp's that have to be traded.

Who wants reunite with clarko for some PP action

Reported we'd been interested before. I've never much liked the way he goes about it, but he's still a good player - only concern is that he's now officially 4 years and a few serious injuries past his peak seasons of footy. I wouldn't be against it but would need some time to warm to the idea of cheering for him.

 

[The Spirit of Cricket]

He can't defend, but if they are after someone who can run and use it well then he's their man.

not much point dishing him for a third imo

would rather try and recapture his late 2021 form. Had a rough year but a good ball user with run and carry sounds like exactly something our gameplan will benefit from.

Agree.

But we do have several players vying for a similar role, and with Morris looking like a good defender he now has another competitor.

It will be interesting to see whether he can get back into the side and displace someone like Morrison.

 

[almuz]

Grundy seems like a ripper of a guy but don’t think he makes sense for our list

Our forth ruck next season should be a 23-28 year old meat axe we can get on the cheap. Someone that’s not promised senior footy but the carrot at the end of the stick is there if they play well/we have injuries
