Just wanted to start a new thread on Jeff's 2017 form. It's outstanding.  He's in elite territory this season when it comes to small forwards.  20 goals, equal to the raved about Toby Greene

Has really improved his goal-kicking this year, especially from set shots.  2015: 40.29 2016: 29.14 2017: 20.6

I'm going to go further on my previous post... I just watched the replay of all our goals from the weekend (not hard to do after a win!).  I counted 11 of our 17 goals where Jeffy either; -

Thread deserves a bump after his sensational game on the weekend. And to think some on here wanted him dropped after one quiet game. 

He's still criminally under-rated, on this board and in the broader footy community.

Jeff Garlett: 169 games / 299 goals

Cyril Rioli: 187 games / 274 goals

Interesting...although Rioli has literally won many a game off his own boot. He takes game for his own in a way Garlett does not. Saturday was an elite performance by Garlett, but I feel this is an unfair comparison. Rioli can be quiet for 2-3 games, and then shows up in the big ones. His match against Sydney in 2016 at the SCG being one.

Best Bargain in the AFL for years

Maybe the all time bargain

Always in my first picked 22

What Jeff hasn’t quite managed to do so far is have a huge game on the ‘G at a home game. 

He so often plays so well when we travel

Any small-mid size forward who kicks 40 plus a year and provides tackling pressure is a must.

Jeffy G is a gun.

Would be great to see any of ANB, Harmes, Melksham, Fritsch kick 40 plus for the Dees.

The small fwd position is one of the hardest in the game. Jeff plays well when our bigs stay closer to home or he is running on to a loose ball.

Since 2007 we have only had 4 players kick 40 goals or more in a season.

He's a bloody star.

His performance didn't go totally unnoticed in the media. Robbo gave him some love on 360 last night, including a laugh at Carlton's expense.

He was on top of the list in the “ 9 things we learned from Round 2 “ article on Monday.

Stated Jeffy should be in the discussion as the league’s best small forward.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
