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.

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.

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

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?

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
