WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JEFF GARLETT


Demon3

Recommended Posts

Just me or is the MFC a sneaky chance of getting in the 8 if everything goes to plan next year?

I am with you Jimmy. Every year I firmly believe we can make the finals right up until after the first quarter of the 1st game of the season...then poof...all hope gone.

I suffer the same malady though at some stage Ross will have us on the verge of the 8 which will make us more attractive to prospectives

Could Blues force our pick 3 hand here. Garlett and pick 8 for pick 3?

computer says NO

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES

These highlights are up there with "Flash" Davey in 2004

If he still has pace it could be the bargain of the year.

Yes he has problems but a Roos incentive contract might just sort most of that out.

I never understood why Carlton wanted to delist him, I think MM is getting craz(ier) in his old age.

Garlett would be an excellent pick up for our fwd line.

HF: Howe - Dawes - Garlett

FF: Kent - Hogan - Pedersen

That could start to cause some headaches.

Kent and Garlett have the footskills and pace to really stretch some defences, and also put on a fair bit of pressure on the ball coming back out.

I am all for it.

Salivating at the prospect......with Roos guiding him, hopefully a new lease of life.

Anyone that can run down Boomer, average 38 goals a year and also very good in the air will be huge for us.

I think you might have forgotten about JKH :blink:

Blease plus 55 for Gartlett, and we'd still be in front.

To reply to/update my own post, our 4th round pick is actually 61.

Not sure if that'll be enough, even under the circumstances.

(BTW, just realised we got Stretch at pick 42. That could be a bit of a steal if he turns out to be a player).

I'm I misremembering, or is there some relationship between Jeff Garlett and Nev Jetta. Family? Friends?

Not sure but Pickering did mention that he knows a few blokes at the club so that could be right.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
