WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JEFF GARLETT


Demon3

Recommended Posts

Here's what it's looking like if everything goes to plan

Frost for pick 55

Garlett for Blease

Lumumba for Clarks pick (35?)

Dangerfield for Pick 2 (and 3 if we have to)

Back: Jetta, Dunn, Garland

Half-back: Lumumba, T-Mac, Grimes

Mid: Vince, Tyson, Viney

Half forward: Garlett, Dawes, Howe

Forward: Kent, Hogan, Pedersen

Rovers: Gawn, N.Jones, Dangerfield

I/C: Watts, JKH, Frost

SUB: Salem or Toumpas

EMER: Cross, Jamar, Stretch

I would say we could make finals with this squad, but because i'm a Melbourne supporter legally I can't.

But I can say this, IN ROOS WE TRUST.

My only concern with Jeffy is how will he go in a tough, physical, final. I can't see him having much of an impact in a really physical game.

Our mitigant here I suppose is that he mightn't be playing in one for a while.

2010 Elimination Final vs Sydney (5 point loss)

16 disposals, 4 marks, 2 goals 2 behinds, 2 tackles

2011 Elimination Final vs Essendrug (62 point win)

16 disposals, 3 goals 2 behinds, 4 tackles, 7 inside 50's

2011 Semi FInal vs West Coast (3 point loss)

9 disposals, 2 goals, 5 tackles

2013 Elimination Final vs Richmond (20 point win)

10 disposals, 2 goals 2 behinds, 3 tackles

2013 Semi Final vs Sydney (24 point loss)

3 disposals, 3 tackles

Bit of a mixed bag, loved the game vs Essendrug but last seasons Semi was a shocker (was he the sub?)

Lets not forget he was a big part of his team getting to the finals, you cant just say you dont want a player because they dont dominate finals

His ability to play in finals is of little consequence if he is coming to us!!

That would be a worry that I would be more than happy to have, at this stage. Edited by monoccular

Can't see us landing Dangerfield.

Nice rumour for a while, but it seems to be nothing more than that.

I reckon we can, if Adelaide stop being stupid.

If Adelaide stop "being stupid" by offloading their best player??

Yeah if he leaves next year pal for nothing but a compensation pick that will be at best pick 6

What did you just call him?

I'm hoping Blease is included in the Garlett deal, and that we won't need to use #23.

Why would we use pick 23 for a player they don't want? It'll just be Blease for Garlett

Doubt any club will pick up Tappy, Blease or Strauss as steak knives in a trade. All 3 become DFA at the end of the year, so any club can pick them up for free if they choose.

Just as we'll take Gwilt without giving St Kilda anything.

"Chelsea Clinton? Dude you'd have a better shog at Bill.."

Ambitious RE: Danger.. Its looking more likely we'll have 2 of these three.. Petracca Brayshaw and McCartin..

And I can't see Jamar not starting in the ruck.. And with any luck the forgotten Trengove will be up and about as the sub round 1!

Jetta Garland Dunn

Lumumba T-Mac Grimes

Vince Tyson Viney

Garlett Dawes Howe

Kent Hogan Pedersen

Jamar N.Jones Cross

I/C: Watts Frost Salem

SUB: Trengove

EMER: JKH, Gawn, Stretch

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
