Collingwood’s Brodie Grundy Has Made A Call On His Future

Superstar AFL ruckman Brodie Grundy has decided to stay put at Collingwood after attracting interest form other clubs — including Adelaide — ahead of his pending free agency.

Grundy tweeted on Friday morning that he had re-signed with the club, with media later confirming a seven-year extension had been inked.

Grundy has told News Ltd:

“Clearly, at this age and point in my career, it was an important decision.

“I took my time to consider all of the things that mean the most to me – my football, my ambitions, my life beyond the game, my family, friends, team-mates and the football club – and settled on what I believe is best for all of those relationships, needs and passions.

“I want to be able to find the very best version of myself, as a person and a footballer, but I also want to contribute to the greater good, to the whole. I know that, in a football sense at least, what ‘Bucks’ and the group are creating is a cause worth continuing to invest in passionately.”
