Bring-Back-Powell 15,578 Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 Garland has played some very good football for the red and blue. He had a bad season this year coming back from injury and without a pre-season. I hope Frost proves to be a great pick-up but there is no way he gets a spot ahead of Garland round 1. And whilst Grimes probably hasn't reached the same heights as Garland he is our co-captain and there is no way Frost gets a spot ahead of him round 1 either.Agree, Garland is a good afl footballer.I actually posed the question around here, whether he was the best player at the club- after our rd 13 2013 loss to StKilda . He was A-grade material that night.

Isn't this a Garlett, not a Garland, thread?? :-)
Redbeard 500 Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 There was just a snippet on Jeff on 7 news, in court about an assault from a few months back, didn't say much about it.
Redbeard 500 Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Here's an article explaining http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/melbournes-jeff-garlett-to-fight-affray-charge-20141103-11g39n.html
DeeSpencer 26,717 Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Return date March 20 is not ideal. I was hoping this was all sorted long before the season started so it was over with. No tolerance for idiots who start fights. Especially drunken brawls it's just too dangerous. But some times you get caught up in things. I hope Jeffy learns his lesson regardless of how this goes and will use his quick little legs not his hands if he ever finds himself in a similar situation and more so he realizes nothing good comes of being out a 5am in King St.
Gipsy Danger 1,067 Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 If jeffy is out on bail, does that mean he can't travel to the Sunshine Coast for the pre season camp?
John Crow Batty 8,895 Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Reported in The Age that Garlett will contest his affray charges. Due to be heard in court next March. http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/melbournes-jeff-garlett-to-fight-affray-charge-20141103-11g39n.html
Redleg 42,195 Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 If jeffy is out on bail, does that mean he can't travel to the Sunshine Coast for the pre season camp? Unlikely it would be that strict. More likely he just needs to turn up at Court on the day.
Bring-Back-Powell 15,578 Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 If found guilty surely he won't be spending time in the clink, for a bit of a dust up, right?
jabberwocky 2,301 Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 If found guilty surely he won't be spending time in the clink, for a bit of a dust up, right? No chance, and bail is highly likely set on own undertaking, as Redleg says, just to show up. None of this will affect his freedom.
Mister Ed 317 Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 Happy to know that once a player joins MFC he automatically loses his DH status.
InVINCEable 358 Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 Happy to know that once a player joins MFC he automatically loses his DH status.You haven't even posted 200 times and you think you're allowed to bag everyone out? Please.
Cards13 9,117 Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 You haven't even posted 200 times and you think you're allowed to bag everyone out? Please. Really? It matters how many posts you have, ffs.
InVINCEable 358 Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 Really? It matters how many posts you have, ffs. When you act is if you know everything it does.
InVINCEable 358 Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 But that's besides the point, I don't remember anyone saying he was a [censored] for getting gangbashed by 4 blokes.
dazzledavey36 56,444 Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 You haven't even posted 200 times and you think you're allowed to bag everyone out? Please.What a seriously weird individual you are.Its irrelevant how many post member have as long as they support the dees and contribute in any way. Pathetic mate
Machsy 2,858 Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 Happy to know that once a player joins MFC he automatically loses his DH status. Surely it didn't take this for you to experience such an epiphany?
Akum 2,660 Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 Happy to know that once a player joins MFC he automatically loses his DH status. You bet! Just like anybody who leaves MFC to go to another club gets their DH status automatically confirmed on their way out.
Wrecker45 3,381 Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 Isn't this a Garlett, not a Garland, thread?? :-) I'm pretty sure I posted that in a response to something on the welcome to the MFC Frost thread.
beelzebub 23,392 Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 You bet! Just like anybody who leaves MFC to go to another club gets their DH status automatically confirmed on their way out. confirmed being the operative word !!
Uncle Fester 2,848 Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 You haven't even posted 200 times and you think you're allowed to bag everyone out? Please. Is this a dick measuring forum or a place where ideas are treated on their merit (or lack thereof)? Please. The best way to drive away new posters (and hence new ideas) is to play the 'shutup n00b' card. It's childish. Really, really childish.
monoccular 17,761 Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 If found guilty surely he won't be spending time in the clink, for a bit of a dust up, right?Was it Marley Williams of Collingwood who was found guilty of serious assault - busted jaw - in Albany : the "standard sentence " in WA for that at that time was a jail term, I think I recall reading of around 6 months, but he walked. The courts are not like the AFL MRP and Tribunal, so I just hope our new guy gets a fair hearing and a just penalty.
G-max 154 Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 Is this a [censored] measuring forum or a place where ideas are treated on their merit (or lack thereof)? Please. The best way to drive away new posters (and hence new ideas) is to play the 'shutup n00b' card. It's childish. Really, really childish. On the upside, only 15 more posts and you can start bagging people out.
InVINCEable 358 Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 Yeah fair enough, pretty pathetic on my part, shouldn't be bagging out posters for how many posts they've made. Sorry to anyone I pi ssed off. But in other news, what number did Jeff wear at Carlton?
Deestroy All 14,266 Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 Yeah fair enough, pretty pathetic on my part, shouldn't be bagging out posters for how many posts they've made. Sorry to anyone I pi ssed off. But in other news, what number did Jeff wear at Carlton? A number not high enough to be of any relevance. Just [censored] with ya, 38.
