Such a waste of the court's time.

60ish % conversion better than most really

It should be 4 weeks if it backfires.

Get on board.

Either do it or we blew it.

That's complete crap. I asked people what their thoughts were on Grundy's forward craft due to the small sample size. Read what I said.

Not to mention Grundy is not that much younger. All of a sudden we end up with two high profile ruckmen on the list who with a bit of luck both fall off the cliff at the same time leaving us in a chasm. Need to be smart.

We still love you Dogga!

I really would prefer this route, I just can't get my head around Grundy and if he's a good fit or not. It would be nice if whoever comes in could have a little forward craft and flexibility but then people tell me Grundy would do the majority of the ruckwork anyway to allow Max to go forward. While it's a good idea to prolong Max's career it doesn't will me with confidence that we suddenly want to send the best Ruckman of the last 5 years to become predominantly a forward. Someone who can learn from Max and offer a bit up forward if needed fits the bill more for me.

I still love the suggestions that Stafford is rubbish and that we need some famous goalkicker from the past who may or may not even be a coach.

That makes sense.

Well he's good for an outside 50 goal at least

I want someone who I can trust to be on the park week in week out. Not saying he can't do this but I'm not convinced at this time with the number of questionable games where he's 'managed'. I would look at him if he came cheap but not convinced he fixes everything.

Exactly, Ed and Amon on either wing would be an incredible threat. Gives us more ability to hurt opposition by foot.

I'd rather go for a forward who can play ruck but that's me. I don't dig Max playing more forward, I get a bit sick of hearing that actually.

Before remembering they are playing Collingwood in Rd 23 I would have said throw the book at him.

I like it, good recognition there.

This is one of the crappiest appeals ever.

It's a good question, I'd say it should. Unless they factor in the stupid pre season games.

Yep, certainly a harder one to take than others.

This ban should be upheld

It all comes down to ball drop with Max. Decent ball drop and he kicks then more often than not, slightly off ball drop means serious consequences in the kick. Very much a confidence thing too.

Beat the Blues, live to fight another day. We had our chances against Dogs and Pies, need to live with it.

That's the biggest hurdle to all of it. Can't justify paying this much for a part time Ruckman.

It's not a good fit. I've tried to rationalise it but it isn't
