The kid is a  star! Quick,  evasive,  always keeps his feet,  knows when to go for the grab and when to stay on the ground for the crumb, excellent acceleration,  can turn on a dime,  rarely (if ever) fumbles,  elite goal sense,  elite forward pressure,  great field kick,  great football brain,  can be used for short bursts in the middle to get effect,  can quickly turn with a few quick k goals with ease. 

40 goals in 2015. 25 years old with many more classy years left in him. Cost us pick 61 FGS!!  Lol thanks for this beautiful gift Mick.

    Carlton have allowed some serious quality walk out there door for not much over the last few seasons.  It boggles the mind really.

    Just your textbook gun forward pocket. We have had an unbelievable run with the indigenous boys in that position: Sean Charles, The Wizard, Davey and now Jeffy.

    I love what Garlett brings to the table, but I'd be even happier if he could work on those hands.  He could have had 50+ goals last year if it weren't for dropping easy marks and fumbling ground balls here and there.

    26, but close enough!

    His best season is ahead of him.

    Gun.

    With a more offensive outlook and what appears a more polished middies  setup I reckon he is good for 60 plus goals this season assuming few absences.

    Best thing about watching the game yesterday in a Geelong pub, was when a Carlton supporter a few seats along the bar, cursed his Club for getting rid of Jeffy. (He was not at all worried about the loss of Eddie Betts.)

    no cigar for you either

    "MELBOURNE has secured a trade for speedy Carlton forward Jeff Garlett. The Demons will hand over picks 61 and 79 to Carlton for Garlett, while they will get back the Blues' pick 83."

    I think DD was referring to his age, not the pick we gave up to get him

    Paid carlton bigfooty a visit.

    ''Jeffy in the goals with 3 already , just into the third quarter''.

    ''He was looking good and lively before he'd kicked one''.
    ''Thanks again Mick''

    Eddie and Jeffie.
    The crazy thing is both these guys may never have played at the highest level if not for us.
    Then we lose them through our own ineptitude.

    ''So hard watching Jeffy running around and doing well for Melbourne''.
    Takes me back a few years when he was the premier small forward in the game

    I don't care what anyone says, Mick was great for Carlton!! Destroyed an emerging team and sent us our best small fwd since Davey who is just as hungry as Farmer!

    Could have an Eddie Betts like year and kick 50-60 goals. He's that good. All-Australian smokey?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
