That one guy was a number 1 pick.

Played every game, having his best season so far averaging 17 touches, signed a 2 year contract extension earlier in the year. You’ve clearly taken a personal interest over the years, they can’t all be superstars but they can play a role.

Nah not really, picked him up in Fantasy early as a forward, made a little bit of cash but traded him after a run of low scores. Love that comment though :D

Sensible debate on players resigning/hopefully resigning at North. JHF is always going to get a mention due to recency bias, having a view on that doesn’t mean you haven’t moved on…

When our club was told it was the environment that made him break his contract, but then everyone else re-signs...thats what annoys me, not the kid.

Im glad he isn't there, but genuinely wish him all the best wherever he plays.

Some in the media are saying Melbourne want Grundy.
