To get the banner you have to kill the champion at 42,46. Really simple. Also It goes

Despite what most people seem to think, all of the mobs in this event are ogres, not orcs.

What to do
Sylvanaar Champion's Shoulders, 
Gurn's Horned Helmet, 
Ogre Assassin's Britches, 21g, 5,150 XPDescription
I want you to steal the Bladespire banner from one of their champions and take it south to Bloodmaul Outpost. Plant it atop their Northmaul Tower. This will infuriate the Bloodmaul and they will attack you relentlessly. But it will also keep their hatred focused on Bladespire Hold, and away from Sylvanaar. You will know you have accomplished the deed when you have defeated Gurn Grubnosh and taken his helm. Return it to Sylvanaar. {name}, this isn't going to be easy. Take a friend or two with you.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Gorr'Dim, Your Time Has Come...
The leader of Bladespire Hold is known as Gorr'Dim. Trust me... the name is appropriate. Still, I wouldn't underestimate him. He's crafty enough to have elevated his clan to be the favorite of Gruul the Dragonkiller and they now dominate these mountains.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Encroaching Wilderness
The Thunderlord were once a proud orc clan before they were transformed into fel orcs through the blood of Mannoroth. Recently we recovered this orc stronghold from the ogres that infest the ravine below. They had moved in when the Thunderlord clan abandoned it.
