In 2011, Grundy continued to showcase his defensive prowess, forming a solid partnership with Ted Richards in the key position defender roles for the Swans. Despite facing challenges like glandular fever towards the end of the season, Grundy's resilience and skill set made him a valuable asset to the team.
