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'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.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
