Sublime when he’s on, ridiculous when he’s not. High risk, high reward. 

That is exactly right. The thing about Garletts career is that he has been consistently inconsistent.

    Likewise Nate for Jones.

    I love the fact that someone like Garlett is no longer a walk up start.  If players struggle with form then we have others in form at Casey who are more than capable of taking their place.  Spargo is proof of this - he is the youngest player on our list (I think), yet he's made the transition to the senior side without any problems at all.  This puts pressure on others and makes it clear that you either perform or you go back to Casey.

    I still think Garlett is in our best 22 but the message is clear - have more consistency in your game or you can get it running around in the magoos.

    Nev calls him Jeffy and that's what he gets in the drills at training, so assume he is ok with it

    Why on earth would something like this bother you?!

    Nev calls him Jeffy is good enough for me. These days almost everyone calls him Jeffy, so the horse has well and truly bolted. 

    Doesn't stop others calling him Jeff or Garlo. 

    I just want him playing good footy on a regular basis.

    Needs to bring more defense to his game. His tackling and pressure acts have been way off this year. Only had one great game and mostly other average games. IMO he's in the twilight of his career and needs to kick 20-30 goals this season to really cement a longer deal. We're seeing now why Malthouse was keen to get rid of him. He needs to turn it around. It seems that whenever the pressure comes and the team is performing and in the sight of finals teams, he drops off.

    Agreed this has made a big difference. Mfc no longer having to and willing to field players not perfoming at requisite level.  We still  a bit more depth but have come a long way.

    Very much a confidence player IMO and if he's not involved early he disappears

    sounds like he is little chance to come in this week.  He'll be pumped to play in NT so hope he plays well for casey

    He'll be back. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

    Hopefully not too late, but looking like not too soon.

    He's terrible when it's wet weather footy, shirks the body contact that comes with it. That's when he lost form.

    In the dry, I think he applies good pressure.

    If I were coach, I'd just not select him for the wet weather games.

    What do they call Pedersen? Has the nickname 'The Bear' caught on yet?

    Spot on. 

    He attacks the ball at speed but doesn't body it.  He is a liability in the wet.

    Another front runner.  If we want to get bejond any front running habits within this club, then we have to cut front runner types from our list,,, as soon as we can.

    I climbed onto the Garlett bandwagon last year,,, but like with 'wattshisface',,,  I'm jumping back off that festival float disappointed again from the downturn in efforts.

     

    The standard we look beyond, is the culture we shall receive.

    He’s still our best small forward but he’s had a poor start to the year (except for him saving our bacon against brissy). Now he has to fight to get back in against players who might not have the same magic but work a lot harder.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
