Congrats Brodie. 3 votes on the weekend enough to push him to the lead and stay ahead of Gawn and others. Great season, likely to be recognised with All Australian selection.

Gawn and Grundy are both wonderful ruckmen and little separates them from being the two stand out ruckmen in the competition. From memory Grundy marginally beat Gawn last time we played. They both deserve selection in the All Australian team.

Stephenson is improving but is still a long was behind Breust if you are talking All Australian. For Rising Star he's the one.

Why would they pick a second ruckman ? The AA team doesn't play anyone. Smile

^If that is the case, they may as well pick the best 22 players this season and Grundy has clearly been in the top 5-10 Wink

Pick him as a Ruck Rover.
He has to be in the team, simple.

Huge congratulations to Brodie.

Why then, would they pick a ruckman at all?

Really good article on Brodie, interview with his mum and past teachers.

Bench pressing 130kg as a 16 year old is a fair effort.

With at least one final to go, unless something goes bizarrely wrong, he will finish the year with over 500 disposals (he's on 494 after the GWS game) and at least 950 hitouts. Just a remarkable influence, week in, week out. He's been like two players in one.

He is already the best ruckman I've ever seen - better than Len Thomson and Peter Moore.
