Because he's been a champion & will go down as a great of the club. The demise has come quickly but he earned the right to make his own call even if it was the wrong one.
Just hope he's comfortable with playing VFL this season.
I sincerely hope we don’t just mind numbingly select the side like it’s 2019 ,,,like we did last year

Not sure why the offered him an extra year in the 1st place.
Ex Captain 230 games and 3 x premiership player and worrier for the club over 13 years and had 1 bad year
deserves the chance to see if he still has something to give.

Im good with another year

Yeah agree and if he starts like he did last year, then I would expect him to be left out and the year becomes a teaching year from Grimes to the young'uns. He has plenty still to give to the club even if its not on the field this year.

Grimesey will pull the pin if he's not hitting the targets the way he would want to or be expected to.

I have a strong gut feeling that if things aren't going as desired for our great champion that he will walk before the MSD as has been the Richmond man way.

I F@$#^@ love Grimesey.

I thought you were taking the p$ss when you suggested Brown to take Grimes spot.

So I just checked and found Brown is listed at 193cm to Grimes’ 194cm.

I thought Brown was only around the 180cm mark. No idea why, just didn’t realise he had that height.
Don’t believe everything you read.
Especially on players heights and weights on the RFC website.

I'm going up to his place at Mt Macedon in the new year. I will find out if he was carrying anything because he looked slow and sore all year.

Tom Brown is comfortably 193. He has grown and put on a little size/upper body muscle.
Brown next to Ben Miller is not looking far from his height. I have Ben Miller at 195, Young on the far right at 196cm. And Vlas is listed at 187cm, Brown is no longer around that height.

I think Miller is taller than 195.
UB has him listed at 198
So Brown at 193 is realistic

That would make him taller than Broad and on par with Grimes.
I’d be pleasantly surprised but still sceptical.
At that height he goes from running half back flanker to almost key position defender.
Interesting.

Looks super fit. Started well today. Faded out but looks to have really polished up physically.

Come on in leaps and bounds since he got rid of that horrible Gippsland mullet. Agree, he plays.

reminded me of a blend between Tom Spewart & Duncan Kellaway. Strange hybrid but that's my take.
