The Dylan Grimes Thread

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,593]

Assuming there is a possibility that Rivers is out what is the deal with Richmond's Grimes? I ask because the brothers and whole family are MAD Melbourne tragics and I wonder whether a trade could be possible??

[Grimseyisgod 378]

would be good, wouldnt it

[Jonesbag 487]

The younger one is a gun

[Grimseyisgod 378]

The younger one is a gun

I still think we got the better one

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,593]

The older one is too - you wait and see And isnt there about 3 more brothers>?

[Grimseyisgod 378]

Actually yes, there is 3 more brothers.

Grimes gives the handball to Grimes, Grimes boots it long, Huge mark by Grimes, handballs to Grimes.. GOAL by Grimes

good team play haha

I am Jack's sponsor and I bounced it off him casually at a function. He said it would be great to have his brother with the Dees but couldn't see it happening.

[Gorgoroth 12,929]

Why would he leave a club that has been good to him to come to a club who could have taken him but didn't

I'd like to think so, as I wanted us to take the punt on him in the draft. I thought back then that we would be going thru the restructure of our defence back before he came into draft contention.

He seems the honest type to build upon. I doubt the Tiges would want to deal now.

Seriously can't believe the amount of negativity there was towards the option of Drafting young Dylan a couple of years back - there were howls of he's no good he's the dud little brother and we're sick of getting the NQR brother, skip forward 2 years and now people want him badly, oh and similar garbage was touted about Butcher and now we want him... I can't keep up with all changeing of minds

[Pates 9,660]

Richmond will not let him go, period. He has been excellent for them this year and will be a gun for them.

Should be keeping an eye on the younger ones though, good footballing pedigree! Did they all follow the Dees? (Oh yes I'm opening that can of worms!)

[What 18,810]

hes a solid backman

Hes nowhere near as good as Jack

I was also disappointed when we let him go to Richmond late in the draft. Alwyn and Aaron Davey would have been better players in the same team too.

Never understood why we let Grimes and Davey go elsewhere.

[Guest José Mourinho]

Has it completely slipped through to the keeper that another Grimes brother is in this year's draft?

Just remind us all again (before I slash what is left of my wrists yet again) just where did Dylan go in the draft and what superstar did we pick before him?

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,593]

Their whole family live out North east and are diehard Melbourne supporters.

Who? Background?

[Jordie_tackles 354]

All Richmond supporters love him and he is good but he has been injured both years since his draft. I would love to get him but i think Jack would need to put in a good sell even though he was a demon as a kid ect

[Barney Rubble 1,576]

All the boys are good footballers.

In fact the younger ones are better than the older ones.

So just imagine how good number 5 will be in 6 years.

[Little Goffy 14,497]

Fits the criteria of 'driven to be the best football he can be'.

Would be a useful addition, in practical terms.

I'd the thrilled if we got him, and surely with the sheer volume of movement out of our club, whether with handshakes or arse-kickings on the way out, we could find an equivalent offer for Richmond?

[Tim 3,416]

The younger ones are better than the older ones.

Like the Chappells, the Waughs and the Danihers? (Trevor, who remembers, and Chris)
