This kid was touted as somewhere between 8 and 15 from memory last year and then slid and slid and slid.  That was before he posted the piccy of himself with  a bundy in one hand and a smoke in the other.

I was sure that Essendon would have rookied him - they brought him over to look at him before the PSD and rookie draft - alas the kid went on another 3am bender.

I probably would have rookied him last year but 18 clubs all said NO - that is saying something.

Having said that, he might be getting his head right and maturity improving.  Unfortunately if his head/maturity is right, he will likely go to someone else before our pick.

Is he X factor and someone we needed, probably.
Last year he had a bigger wrap sheet than charlie sheen, i wouldn't invest to higher pic, perhaps 3 rounder, more likely to be gone by then, hard to think why demons or dogs wouldn't roll the dice with him

Unfortunately with our record with indigenous talent he'd be partying with Dusty in no time.
::)
 
We can't be trusted with wayward players. It's not the other way around.

Yep, let's keep drafting private school prefects, that's worked well for us  :lol
I'm not saying that I wouldn't love an a talented indigenous player in the team but I don't trust the club to be able to manage someone like him that's all. Would be more than happy if they were successful in developing someone just like him.
The club that keeps giving.

That'll just be a smokescreen for some middle of the road hack flanker for the 3rd round that FJ has his fine eyes all over  :shh

Yep, that not one club at all even bothered rookie listing him speaks volumes.

Dayle Gartlett - RFC 2014
« Reply #38 on: June 05, 2013, 01:51:41 PM »
Richmond have to consider picking this kid up. Belongs on an AFL list. Social issues or not, the kid is a star. Bagged 6 goals in the WAFL as a 19 year old and was seen as a top 10 pick last year.

Seems to be serious about his footy and wants a crack at AFL. Other than Edwards we don't have any AFL indigenous players and we seriously need some small forwards on our list.

Gartlett would fit really really nice in our best 22. If we picked up Ben Cousins with his issues, we can take this kid easily.

when did he get locked up?

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."
