The most underrated player in the AFL outside of our 4 walls. Absolute Rock of Gibraltar!

Knowing Grimesy, he probably didn't want any fuss ot to have the focus taken away from what the team is trying to achieve.
Unbelievable clubman.
It was acknowledged on the front side of the banner as the players ran out, from memory along the top congratulating Grimesy on 150 games.

Deep analysis is not my thing, I always get caught up in the emotion and I often watch the game on a small screen but Geelong seemed to have a plan to stop Grimes. He was engaged early, dragged deep and prevented from getting any run. I've never seen him so well controlled so I was wondering if they were actually holding him behind the play and not getting pinged?

Yeah. Noticed he never seemed to have the space he does.

Henderson was all over him like acheap suit on the goal line a couple of times.
Teams definitely putting time into him.

He was controlled by illegal holding. Was very really allowed to jump at the ball. Think he got maybe 1 free for it all night. And it wasn’t just home either. The were restricting all out intercept marking player with holding or blocking but not picked up by the umps at all. No doubt it was planned
