I've seen the love shown to him in another thread (Or lack of love) so I thought I'd post an appreciation thread for the fella, showing him that some supporters do support him! :thumbsu:

This thread should really be stickyied. :D

What's your best memory of Grundy, the man known affectionately as Reg?

My best memory of Grundy? His first game..

That was a beauty, he should be played more often but because we have a lack of talls down back, he's put there to make up the numbers. I think it's all part of his apprenticeship, he'll be better for it next year when he returns to the forwardline. :thumbsu:

Looks like he's not sure of himself down back, panicked a few times and gave away some free kicks. But I think he's worth persisting with as we don't have much backup there.

at the lake oval on their premiership tour, i think late november 05, stinking hot day, 5000-odd people, and grundy was one of the few swans left standing to meet we proles....and he took a group of kids for a kick, and gave my young lad a wrap for a decent pass to him....we've been fans ever since, i hope the swannies persist with him AS A FORWARD....although he's gotta be learning heaps in this stint in the backs
good on yer, reg!
 
The poor bugger is a forward but has been shunted down back because of our dirth of decent defenders with a bit of height on them.

It goes without saying that he is not exactly suited to this role. He was unconvincing against the Eagles & Richmond & to be honest had very little to contend with today in Canberra.

Hopefully he can stay in the team but as a forward. His nice goal today was prof that the guy CAN kick goals.

Good on Heath Grundy, good person by the sounds of it. :thumbsu:
 
If Leo is to be fit for next week, Grundy better get dropped for him. Today Grundy gave what like 3 free kicks which turned into goals. He kicked a goal however.

Agree 100%. :thumbsu: Would love to see him get more of an opportunity to play forward. Grundy has talent but probably not as a defender.
 
Grundy is doing fine.
I'd prefer to see Richards dropped before him, and ultimately have LRT, Leo and CBolton our three talls for the finals so hopefully Lewis can get his fitness up before then, simulatenously giving Reg some confidence and experience.
