Has had two games back from injury with a rather large B/E still, apparently...

Priced at $362,400 and looks a bargain. Particularly when you take away the 12 he averages 87 a game which is near on par with what you want from a premo defender.

Furthermore, his draw coming up is quite favorable: Lions, Roos, GWS, Suns, Freo, Crows & Dogs.

But how certain can you be that he won't get injured again though family curse.

I'm taking a punt on him. Good value.
Just pray that if he goes down it's after he's already scored a ton lol

You posted a topic with the name Grimes and mentioned injury in your first sentance. Too injury prone for my liking. On my never again list when I traded him in late in the season a few years ago and got injured

A straight swap for terlich, locked for me. Am prepared to risk injury.

Edit: that trade actually gives me 50k  :o. I can understand why some might not be keen, but a no brainer for me  :)

Hartlet>Grimes looking likely for me means a def line of God, Hep, Gibbs, Eski, Enright, Grimes, Hanley, Clisby  Now who to bench....

BE of 50, it's impossible to turn down ;)

Thurlow-> Grimes for me

Dave085

Can we confirm his breakeven?? FF has it at 146...

Windigo

Yeah, I'm confused. Haha.  :P

Adamant

FF hasn't updated players' prices/average/break-evens yet. Grimes is still listed at 383k, with a 73 average and a 146 B/E.

I sourced my BE from footywire

Holz

I made money on Terlich to Grimes.

if you have nothing urgent I think he is almost a must have at that price. Im tipping top 6 backman from here on
