Brodie Grundy

not sure why people aren't getting on him? tell us why or why you don't have Grundy in your side..

I think most don't have him given the reason we all have Sandi. Grundy at r1 is too risky. Need a set and forget r1 imo

The fact that Collingwood just elevated Ben Hudson from the rookie list to play tomorrow really says it all...

Maybe next year when old man Hudson finally retires.Also only his second year too.

- Grundy: Relying on a 2nd year player to pump out premo numbers is just too much to ask. Especially when most ruckmen aren't AFL ready until 22+. Yes they will back him in at the Pies most the year but the value just isn't there. In his debut year he only went over 76 once and will need to average 87+ to make 100k and be a viable pick. I can't see that happening especially early on when Collingwood face Freo, Sydney, Geelong in the first three rounds. No doubt he will be a star one day but he is cheap for a reason.

Agree with Rico here. He's still just a kid, only played a handful of games, and only gone above 76 once. I can't see him making enough cash to justify starting him. Need to have a premium R1 as Jackross said if you have Sandi at R2.
