Opinion Grundy as a Forward

[Rebuilder]

Right now if it came down to Grundy or King I'd be shipping him back to SA and let Cameron and Lynch kick it down to King. It's a more likely premiership scenario than Grundy tapping it down to himself and looking up to see no quality key forward to kick to.

Agree.

Surely that is what GW would currently be working on - what does our next premiership challenging team look like?

One big big piece is one ready made quality big key forward If McMahon develops into one then that’s a bonus.

I'm going to go even crazier and suggest him rotating between ruck and wing. He's got the tank, can drift forward, roll back when we need him to shore up our defence and then present as an option at kick ins.

Yes its radical but I too am perplexed at his form drop and am thinking how we can re-invigorate him. I think that might save his body but also give us a potential unique element to our structure. Yes he may not keep up with Gaffs etc, but we sacrifice that to hopefully provide a marking option and connection with our forwards.

I personally think he's not covering the ground as well so maybe shedding a few kegs will help in this role. Won't happen I'm sure, but we're not capitalising dominance now anyhow so what is there to lose.

If Grundy went forward it would be as a small crumbing rover, you know, like his rucking.
