I Weighed up the breakevens and was certainly no rush to do the trade in my opinion especially against a tigers side with no ruckman..
But can’t blame anyone for making the move when melb named gawn.. happy to have a look for atleast 1 week at how they play gawn, hoping it’s majority FWD or floating across HB ease back into it. Let Grundy ruck.
Grundy had half a dozen tapouts that quarter and not one hit a target all were straight down a tigers throat.. why did Melbourne even bother chasing him if they play him a low TOG. Let him rest forward
This was an absolutely stupid trade by Melbourne if they are going to play 2 rucks but have one sit on the bench half the game and not resting forward…….
I suggested that people trade him out as soon as max comes back, but was thumbed down multiple times, unfortunately was always going to happen Max is the man.
Yep the 67 BE was my reason for holding.. thought he’d either make about 20k to go to English or hold his price and grab gawn in 2-3 weeks when he bottoms out at about 520k.
Still think holding was the correct call given the circumstances and data.
I have 22 pt lead on opp with this game the decider. Opponent has chandler and I had Grundy. At one stage he hit front when chandler went crazy in 3rd qtr. thank goodness Grundy came back to save my bacon.
Will have to trade Grundy though as he did not pass the eye test tonight

For C?
T/U- Oliver
T/D- Daicos
Satan can play well and go XXL whist the rest of Melbourne play poorly. Go Tiges
1st CBA and Gawn is in the ruck . Not what I wanted to see as a nervous Grundy owner
” flu like symptoms” And i sitting here like a malaka with the C on Touk.
Grundy 2 at 1/4 time
44% TOG……….
is he going to reach his 67 BE??
Oh dear. I thought it might be bad, didn’t dream it would be this bad.
Maybe Gawn will get tired.
IT’s around what he was averaging when Gawn went down so should make his be

He scored 12pts for the throw in that he took out of the air and hand-balled to Viney. That is about it.
Kossy and Grundy on track for a combined total of 20 points (thumbs up emoji)
not a supporter of either team but i’d be dark if i was a demon supporter with the umps at the minute
Grundy up to 14 with 58% TOG

Was likely due to a 67 BE and playing against Richmond without Nank

Oliver only on 35 at half
He is just wildly kicking the ball forward and it is being intercepted
Getting plenty of it, just poor disposal
50% DE with 7 clangers
What a final term from JVR!
60 odd point quarter for him

Goodwin after the match stated he was about to sub JVR out in the last term until he took a mark
