Midfielder drafted 2 years ago via GWS Zone Selection. Can't seem to crack the senior side despite several impressive performances this year. I believe he is contracted until the end of next year. These are the stats from his past 6 games, bear in mind he plays in the NEAFL although you can only beat who you play against.

38 disposals, 4 marks, 4 tackles

29 disposals, 5 marks, 8 tackles

34 disposals, 2 marks, 7 tackles

33 disposals, 5 marks, 7 tackles

25 disposals, 2 marks, 10 tackles

43 disposals, 11 marks, 10 tackles

Perhaps someone else can offer some more insight, I just figured his name was worth mentioning.

    It's disturbing how few of the GWS fringes I've heard of or seen play. No wonder we're so shite.

    Has anyone seen him play? Is his disposal ok?

    What were the stats of Michie & Newton in their state league comps? There tends to be a reason some of these guys can't get a game at AFL level.

    Then again you have Vanders...but you're right. Stats are not a great indication on their own.

    That is the same league Vandenberg played in isn't it? Barrett has better stats.

    Yes, vanders was a real hidden gem

    Does anyone know anything about this guy's height, weight, position, "plays like"??

    Nup.....

    Purely by name association. No Barrett's allowed, would automatically think of 'purple' every time I see his name and would need to cut my wrists multiple multiple times, I'm not ready for that

    A Barrett involved in footy who I could like?

    Thanks for finding this bloke - now that its been posted expect Barrett and Denham to report this as a trade rumour within three weeks.

    Nate Fyffe, but keep that info to yourself.

    Wouldn't be against it if he came at a decent price, hopefully he'd be a Miles rather than a Whiley/Darley/Edwards etc

    That's why gws is winning by 90 points everyone at neAfl, every week they have 7 top 10 picks playing in the seconds,

    No Barrett's allowed? Should I be leaving the club then? :(

    OOC and GWS are happy for him to look at opportunities. There has to be a reason he has only played one game. His stats in the neafl are good and he starred in their GF. Would appreciate if anyone knows anything about him. Style of play, disposal efficiency etc

    Contested beast, quite a big bodied mid, though i think he's got a habit of bombing and hoping and isn't super skilled under pressure. 

    I think he'd only be a fringe player for us.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
