    The great man has returned.

    In 2010, there are no excuses.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Legend is the key word

    Wish we had a 27 year old C.Grant running around for us in 2010 though

    Yes, I would love that also - but at least he is back in some capacity...that's enough for me. It will be good for him and the club!

    Re: Legend Grant hopes to teach new Dogs old tricks

    Funny, I was only talking to my father about Grant the other day. I wondered why he hadn't really been around the club much but it's absolutely fantastic news that he's going to be back in some capacity.

    Having Hall and Grant educating our young KPP's is going to be invaluable.

    Re: Legend Grant hopes to teach new Dogs old tricks

    I had an argument with my Dad about how much use Grant will be. His argument was basically a champion is a champion and Grant won't change these guy's paths much believing aspects like bodywork can be learnt through game experience or naturally. I said he was jealous cause if his club tried bringing back their former champ they's end up with a bunch drug dealers.

    Does everyone agree that this should improve our young blokes chances of success significantly?

    IMO, he'll certainly help them, but I'm not sure he'll be a deciding factor in their fortunes. The raw talent/understanding has to be there in the first place, I reckon. He could help someone blossom, though.

    Nice to see the champ reuniting with the Dogs.

    Personally I think a guy like Everitt is exactly who Grant need to teach and with his help is a lot more likely to be a good player.

    Re: Legend Grant hopes to teach new Dogs old tricks

    A lot of it may simply be confidence the young player gets knowing he is being taught by such a champion of the game. Sometimes for a player like Everitt confidence and belief could be the only thing holding them back from becoming a quality AFL player. Grant is also a fine role model off the field which is just as important for these young kids.
