I like this kid. Plenty of upside and once he grows a muscle in his legs, he should be able to kick a few metres better. From his footage he seems to be able to read the ball well

We have noone else.I don't know how you could say that with any kind of confidence.
Plus Westy drops back and does it so well...We have Burton as well. I'm expecting him to play in defence as a 3rd or 4th tall
Actually enjoyed the joint interview...Grundy very and naturally funny and highly intelligent...his highlight package shows a fair bit ..raw yes but a very good selectionthis blokes of a weird unit from his interview. Has cult hero written all over him
Yeah I don't think anyone doubts that he's a project. Hopefully he develops quickly!Looks to have a very, very long way to go to be up to AFL standard...
No he isn't.Grundy is our only depth key defender.. A couple of injuries and he is in..
No he isn't.
Backline come round 1 is very likely to be: (HH injured)
HB: Burton, Howard, Houston
FB: DBJ, Clurey, Jonas
INT: Bonner
If we lose a key back during games, Burton is our coverage as he has played his best footy as a key back. In fact in the event of an injury he might be the 1st in line as backup.
Then you have Lienert.
Then McKenzie who we've pigeonholed as a taller defender.
Then if all 3 of those backup plans fall through, and the opposition has so many talls we can't cater for them with HH. Then we have Riley Grundy.
Even still in that scenario it is possible Westhoff would just go back.
So Riley Grundy is about 4th in line as a backup KPD. So will only be playing if serious bad fortune falls upon us.
Riley was at the Club 1870 event. What a great young man. Very personable and speaks so well. When Barry asked him a question Riley gave his answer with plenty of detail that even took Baz's breath away. Not worried at all about public speaking.
He had an ingrown hair in his knee. The knee became infected and Riley wound up in hospital on an IV drip and has just had clearance to start training again.
Riley said the upside was he could do some weights while he couldn't run and put on a bit of upper body beef.
Told the story of being at the Belair pub for the draft with his mum and thinking he wouldn't get drafted as the picks rolled into the 70s. Then his name was called out and he said his mum dead set lost it. She started screaming and crying and people thought he was killing her.
He stayed to the very end of the night like a true Port Adelaide player, chatting to people. He was surprised when we told him some people thought he had done his knee water skiing. He knew the rumour was around but was surprised anyone would think it was him. Then he realised he was injured at the same time of the rumour and had missed a couple of public functions.
Travis Boak is a self confessed manscaper. Just as well he is not one of our captains and setting a bad example.Players shouldn't shave their legs in case they get an ingrown hair, end up in hospital and miss games ... am I doing this right?
