Jeff Garlett fined

I know it gets said a lot, but what a great pick up he has been, relative to what he cost us. We were crying out for a good 40 goal a year small forward as well.

Anyway, glad he got off. It was stupid, but very low impact and was never really going to draw too much attention.

Career best form AND improving. Just a gun. What a classy player. Hopefully we get the best out of him.


I also appreciated the little apologetic hand up gesture to the umpire where Garlett acknowledge he'd made the mistake.

And that it didn't disrupt his concentration.

Honestly he is one of our most important players now. Glad to hear he will be out there Vs the bombers.

Pity Sidebottom only got two,always plays well against us.

maybe he'll appeal....

 


Loving the chemistry brewing between he and BenK too. 

Throw in Kent and it's a nice mix of speed, skill and aggression. 

 

Could've hit Davis a bit harder to make Hogan's day a bit easier, but oh well. 

There was nothing in it other than a very obvious careless high tackle free kick 

Still, with the MRP's  history one just never knows  

Move on and enjoy the win.

A fine for what exactly?!

Fmd this game is getting softer. And what was with Phil Davis carrying on like a little [censored].

Rightfully so, nothing more than a free kick

Couldn't agree more, Its a joke it was referred. It was in play and a little clumsy. Rightfully a free. That's it.

I only watched him on TV vut he came across as an absolute [censored] and spoilt brat.

 

the pushing &holding and interference on the the fwds by GWS was borderline and at some times surpassed within the rules.

So Garlett gets fined $1000 for a late brush on Davis. Suckling gets off scott free for clocking a Geelong player in circumstances very similar. We won't mention Merrett breaking Pederson's face and it's play on.

Couldn't agree more. It was one of the reasons I left early. Then, a miracle happened, they found 2 free kicks for Hogan, both of which were probably less deserved than some of the manhandling of Watts and Hogan in particular for most of the first three quarters.

Hodge dropping a knee onto Bartel, no case move on, any thoughts? Probably of no consequence now that he is injured and out for 6.

  • 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.
