Dayle Garlett Quits

Featured Replies

I seriously don't want the AFL getting Americanised.

Way too late for that. Everything they do at HQ is measured against, begged, borrowed and stolen from the US.
 

He will go to freo or meth coast and dominate now, sick of this go home factor stuff haha

Yes because they bent over backwards to recruit him in 2012 and offer rookie listed positions and both again overlooked him last year.

They would be well aware of his issues and history, neither of them will pick him up and I doubt whether Garlett will even play WAFL

It's just about time to close the thread and come back in three to five years and see how he's going then.

 

No loss to anyone but himself, glad to see Hawks stuff up a draft selection for a change, Leopards never change spots.

His mates are no good even said it himself, his coach from swan dis would be [censored] off after he told all the afl they were mad not to give him a shot

It is a shame, guys with so much talent like Garlett and Jurah, they get people in their ear telling them how good they are.

They get to the big time and think that talent will get them through.

Talent only gets you in the door, hard work starts then. But these guys get in the door, get lauded with even more praise and it goes to their head.

They should've played held onto Garlett, played him on Ollie Wines, just to show him how far off he is in an AFL environment.

Garlett was more impressive than even Wines in under 18's, yet the difference between then in the AFL would be massive.

These immensely talented kids beat themselves.

We should get in his ear and try rookie him next year.

 

His previous WAFL Club has knockedhim back for 2014 according to Finey on SEN last night.

Some young men are slow to mature, not so much in terms of body strength but more so in terms of making smart decisions and being able to cope with the rigors of the world in general. As an outsider looking in (as none of us really know) it would seem that Dayle Garlett falls into this category. Combine that with a background which may or may not have been as solid and supportive as that of other youngsters as well as huge expectations based purely on his ability and, in the final analysis, you have to feel for this lost boy.

Yes they have told Garlett he is not in their plans, other clubs may look at him but outside of Swan Districts he will be what is called a 10 point player. Each WAFL side has a points limit and if the player is from your draft zone they are only allocated 1 point.

It may be worth Dayle considering taking a year off footy and seeking professional guidance, not necessarily for a football return but for him to work on those aspects that are holding him back as an individual.

No loss to anyone but himself, glad to see Hawks stuff up a draft selection for a change, Leopards never change spots.

One can only imagine the meltdown, the absolute furore that would have appeared on this site had we recruited him then this happened without his even playing one game.

At least we got some genuine excitement from both Wona and Jurrah before they left us.

What is holding him back as an individual? Footy/ sport is not for everyone. Maybe he is a great individual and has other ideas on what life holds for him, he had a crack at it, saw what was required and didn't have that in him, some don't but that doesn't mean there is anything wrong with him.

Yes... we will probably need a new 150 page topic by then.

I really wanted us to get him with our second draft pick @ 40 but I'm glad now that we didn't get the chance. Jay Kennedy-Harris sounds good to me.

The title on the afl website was demons emerge as Garlett lifeline! I almost had a mini heart attack was I saw it :/

Edited by young dee enthusiast

The latest in WA is Dandaragan have lodged the paperwork for him to be transferred from Swan Districts (his WAFL club) to them to play Country footy. The Central Midlands Coastal Footy League is not the strongest league in rural WA

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
