He was Taken with Pick 14 last year which we traded for Wood.

Intresting to see what he is like and did we make the Right Descion
 
We goot a good 21yo ruckman who will develop into the tyoe of player we need.

dave we made the right decision and that is even before ive seen grimes play
 
There was no indication that we would've looked at him regardless, so in reality it's just another kid debuting that got nowhere near our list.

I'm quite contempt that we over looked that pick for Wood.

I agree, we made the Right Descion but will be intresting to see how the Pick 14(Grimes) turned out

There's no doubt Grimes can play. I was keen on him in last years draft myself until swapped out of round 1 for Wood.

I hope he goes well.

We did better than Brisbane out of the trade, I will say that.
 
Ahhh, I think it's called de-but-ant-ing.
Yes I know. I hit the Wrong keys and I did not check my spelling before posting it

young Jack captain of vic metro from hurstbridge and the northern knights who the dees rate highly - pick fourteen but had back problems and has overcome themm and good 2 see bails giving the fella a crack at afl level before the year is out to get his confidence up and see how he goes - a true leader and alot of talent to go with it a 10 year player in the making - a real ball magnet in tac cup so hope he can adapt wel to the highest level - mad dees supporter to as a kid so even better

Grimes has nothing to do with the Collingwood football club. He was never on our list, we never had a realistic chance to grab him. We never decided to get Wood over Grimes. It has very little proximity to our club.

If we were super keen on a player available at that pick then the deal for Wood wouldn't have been done simple as that.

We probably would've taken McCarthy at 14 if we had the chance knowing our recruiting.

I don't think in 2020 I'm going to look back and say we could've had Jack "Grimey" Grimes.
 
As long as Wood replaces Bryan this week, it's a start. Good luck to Grimey, but I doubt we would have taken him anyway.

Oh, and I believe it's "debuting" and "quite content".
