Sounds Like Brodie's Brother is another High Quality Prospect.

Only 16 years old sounds like he is someone worth Following.

Interesting how his Stocks go with Brodie being his Brother?

Brodie Grundy mentors little brother Riley as AFL clubs take note
The Advertiser – 20 April 2018

Collingwood ruckman Brodie Grundy is using pen and paper to tutor his younger brother Riley who is following his unconventional pathway towards the AFL as clubs track the raw and exciting teenager at Sturt.

Like Brodie, who walked into Sturt at 16 asking for an opportunity after playing basketball as a junior, Riley only took up footy at 15 but has developed from rangy ruckman to a key defender with explosive speed, a good leap and reach.

“When I was rucking Brodie used to give me lots of pointers on how to best position my body and that’s something I’ve taken through my game now,” Riley said.

“And whenever he comes round we go to the local park and have a kick and a few ruck contests.

“In particular now when I’ve been trying to learn this defensive craft he’s got the pen and paper out and draws up where I should be positioning myself and doing this and that, play in front, go up the ground.”

…Riley, 17, was already on the radar of AFL recruiters but Brodie’s outstanding start to the season with Collingwood has only added to the intrigue.

At 195cm and 80kg he is smaller than Brodie (202cm and 100kg) but last year tested 2.9sec for his 20m sprint, which is considered very good for a player of his size.
