Grundy: "That mental preparation has been a really solid part of my game this year"
Ahead of Round 17 star ruckman Brodie Grundy appeared in a press conference. He answered questions on his performance and game preparation amid an outstanding 2025 season.
"That mental preparation has been a really solid part of my game this year," Grundy said.
"It's probably been a focus on my process. It may sound quite generalised but it's been an acknowledgment of what makes me the player I am and continuing to reinforce that and put an emphasis on that during the week and in games."
