What's with the Grundy hate?

Another good performance from Reg. Just keeps stringing them together.

Don't say that the Swans selectors and the head coach have fluked it again. It was bad enough that they let that untalented McVeigh run around long enough that he's learned the game but now it's happened to Reg, too. Play the kids, for god's sake.

No hate from the official site. Puff piece here

This is encouraging news;
'Grundy is conceding less than one goal a game this season and ranks fourth in the team for marks and contested marks'

I gave Reg a few sprays on this site earlier in the season as I seriously doubted his ability, skill or pace and I am glad to say that he is one player that has made me eat my words over the past few weeks.

His performance on Saturday against the Saints was very good. Was alot surer with his hands, kicked well and he is now a one grab mark.

Keep it up Reg.

Namaste D Lama.
Clearly with my name I must be going to be his number 1 stalker!

Perhaps he is doing a Ben Rutten. Went from struggling forward up to 05 i think. Craig comes in and puts him straight to Full Back and became an absolute revelation.

Both were roughly the same age when this happened (23/24).

Jeffers are you posting a lot more lately or is it just me noticing your posts more?

Top marks to skiddy. Have seen him growing into a Bowdenesque role for the past 8 weeks or so. Possibly a bit undersized, but good reader of the ball and composure with his disposal.

A little bit of column A and a little bit of column B.

haha it's a great pic to look at. It should make an appearance on every thread i reckon

I'm supporting the decision to play him down back now. With White and Johnstone looking like the next key forwards I guess down back is the best place for him given we have no young KP backman coming through.

Grundy has been very good over the last month. I have a lot more confidence in him now.

[RogueSwan]

...I have a lot more confidence in him now.

and Reg appears to have a lot more confidence in himself

Reg came into AFL unwanted in the draft with the reputation of having good hands but being too slow. His decision -making was also suspect in that he was too slow to move the ball on. I couldn't see him surviving AFL but in 2008 and most of this season he has improved his pace and grown in confidence. He now makes better and quicker decisions.The fact that he has been used as the loose man in the backline is testimony to this. He is durable and is rarely injured. I think he has stepped up and iwill be a permanent fixture in our tea. Well done to him.
