One of my favourites - we could do with him this week!

[3Dee 1,153]

Balls, no Marngrook in Qld.

[pineapple dee 2,892]

Rod Has 2 sons, the eldest James 22 now. Why isn't he playing for the Deeeees ??

We need that lineage coming through into the club

I guess not every son wants to follow in there fathers footsteps and nor do they have to. Maybe he didnt enjoy footy or wasnt that great at it.

[hemingway 7,615]

give me 22 rod grinters I will be a happy man. that face instilled menace. however, the guy could actually play some seriously good footy. great overhead mark for his size, could kick, and had some pace.

Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow: Rod Grinter

[Bluey's Dad 3,419]

Not joking.

I see he has a VFL logo on his guernsey. I was too young to follow footy in the 80's.

Judging by the [lack of] teeth, I assume he was a rough character?

Loved that hit.

[Bluey's Dad 3,419]

Also just noticed - 80 cents for a footy record???

The 80's must truly have been the golden age of humanity.

Grinter had more balls than our current list combined.

Man you really missed something. Like missing Jack Dyer or Big Carl. Serious dudes who made the ground shake. Menace in every footstep. Rod Grinter could seriously play. However he was a very dangerous man when he got an opponent in his sights. Like a bull but he very rarely missed.

[Dr John Dee 1,057]

Just two or three would be enough to cause some serious havoc nowadays, Ernie.

[Wilson7 2,648]

It was a beauty Fork

just found a a replay of it mate, go to 22:50 for old times sake

Like running into a brick wall.

that would do me too doctor. The booing by opposition supporters of dear gentle Rodney was a wonderful sound.

[picket fence 17,033]

I loved Rod Grinter hard at it, scrupulously fair a wonderful player! Sigh What I would give to have Rod Grinter and Byron Picket in the side right now!

Pretty low act of Terry Wallet trying to eat Rod Grinters Hand but years ago! Very low act indeed!
