Jeff must be an absolute priority. Close to the premier small forward in the competition and our forward line looks infinitely better with him in it.

Don't know..............the compo pick for Sylvia (= Bernie) has to be right up there too .

I wonder if the Carlton hierarchy ever think of what could have been; Jeff, Eddie, Josh and the current number 1 ranked player, Jarad would make for a powerful and potent forward line. 

Love that Melbourne was for on the happy side of a once in a decade deal but the best thing is Garlett is so much fun to watch. Whenever he gets the ball entertainment happens. Love that he is ours, we should keep it hat way

Can't speak for the hierarchy, they are clearly bonkers. But the Carlton fans... well, they are acutely aware that it has been some time now since Carlton outscored ex-Carlton in a round of football.

How would you compare Garlett with other small forwards of the past: Vardy, Farmer, Davey, not to mention Barry Vagg?

He is up there with the best of them. Super fast, quick thinking and will only get better.

Like Vardy, he is a finisher. Farmer and Davey more spectacular, but Garlett doesn't seem to miss when the ball's in motion.

Hes pretty awesome to watch when he has a goal in front of him and the race is on between him and some smuck. Most have no chance of catching him. Makes me laugh.

Yes he is a finisher with precision kicking and slick handballs.

Loved his comment post game that he needs Hogan to start dropping some marks so he can get more crumbs. 

I haven't seen a player who has such a great knack for bobbing up when the team needs it most and kick a goal. He saved our bacon from a Richmond comeback about 3 times last weekend. 

What a genuinely awesome freebie and a must sign for the club. And also well done to him for turning things around. He obviously wasn't at peak professionalism when we got him.

It's staggering that a club like the blues gave up on him so easily he's the icing on the cake deep forward.

We didn't just get Garlett cheaply, Carlton were silly enough to give him to us as he was entering the best years of his career.

Mind you, he probably needed the change from Carlton before he would ever reach these heights.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
