AFL FANTASY TAKE
Brodie Grundy averaged 115.3pts from his opening 10 games of the season, he scored a season high 152pts in Round 2.
It is likely Darcy Cameron will assume the No.1 ruck position without Grundy in the short term, the Magpies currently have 2 games leading into their Round 14 bye.

Assessing the injury situation will be key in making a crucial decision to trade or hold Grundy this week, the positive was he returned to running duties almost immediately & he has also been cleared of any damage.
With heavy ownership in AFL Fantasy classic on the Collingwood ruck this could be a defining pivot move away from the pack, being informed on injury updates this week & understanding what others will do will be critical in making a final decision.
