Grant was offered a large amount of money to move to Port Adelaide, but his decision to stay with the Western Bulldogs was helped along by a little boy, Ryan Adams, who sent Grant a letter with a 20-cent piece attached saying it was all he had and that Grant could keep it if he stayed with the Bulldogs. Grant announced his retirement from senior football at the Bulldogs' best-and-fairest presentation on 2 October 2007, following a career that spanned 18 seasons and 341 games. Chris Grant came out of retirement to represent his old club in Daylesford and in his first game of the season kicked 11 goals. Grant continues to support the Western Bulldogs. Currently he is the Director of the Football Department. Personal life Grant's daughter, Isabella Grant, began playing for the Western Bulldogs' AFL Women's team in the 2020 AFL Women's season after being drafted to the club as a father-daughter selection.
