Cult hero, misunderstood or icon?
Which best describes the one and only, Jarrad ‘Spindleshanks’ Grant?
However you view him, Grant oozes character and entertainment factor, which makes him an ideal guest for the Happy Hour edition of Barkly Street with Bob Murphy and Marcus Bontempelli.
‘Spindles’, a podcaster himself, spends some ‘Zoom’ time with Bob and Bont, his former Bulldog team-mates, in the third episode of the isolation series.
Grant was a fan favourite over an 81-game, seven-year stint at VU Whitten Oval, and he has lost none of his sharp wit and cheeky demeanour since hanging up the boots.
Tune in to find out about the origins of the Bulldogs’ ‘dice game’, Grant’s career path post footy, why his nickname was ‘microphone head’, how he was perfectly pranked by Barry Hall and his trademark one-finger goal celebration.
