Jeff Garlett to Richmond?

[tdy]

Replaces King and is quick but is NOT worth a lot, so we shouldn't, hope to god, offer a lot, pick 50 or a player.  But given Carlton will want pick 30 we shouldn't do it.  He isn't worth that much, Betts was the good one of the two.

But I would take him to replace King, but only at the right price.

[the claw]

hmm jeff garlett.
1/ still only 24.
2/  is a bona fide goal kicker at afl level. 39, 48, 29, 43,  goals in his previous 4 seasons.  what sml fwd have we had who can do that.

IF  and thats A  BIG if with hartley, garlett can be bought to the club on the CHEAP.  he would be a massive upgrade on any SML FWD WE RICHMOND HAVE HAD IN THE LAST 10 YRS.

What the eff do you want a sml fwd to do??? whats that i hear??? regularly kick goals, kick em out of his arse at times well garlett certainly fits that bill and imo he has upside.

now what to give up. certainly not picks 3, 21 or 39. offer em up a player.   give em peaheart and we get drat pick upgrades.

I don't agree. He kicked those goals because all efforts were on Betts. Guess what, we don't have a Betts.
What has he done this year without him? Twelve goals from 9 games. And he is playing in a side that is playing slightly better than us.
He is mentally weak. We don't need another one of those!

Ps Shank Edwards has kicked 13 goals!

your entitled to your opinion even if i disagree with it. lol shamk edwards.  as a sml goal kicking fwd garlett actually has the runs on the board.  yes hes having a lousy yr in all areas not just kicking goals.
if he was cheap  as a sml goalkicking fwd he without doubt would be a massive upgrade on any sml fwd we have had in  god knows how long. and thats based on performance no other thing .

its hilarious here we hve a bloke whos having a poor yr  but been very consistent till this yr yet we have our own players  who for yrs on end do nothing but show a little bit in oine yr and they are good players.
with so many of you blokes its all about what you see now and you get sucked in hook line and sinker.  id suggest you look constantly at what players have done for the entirety of their careers and you may get a better idea when comparing them .
unlike hampson this bloke has the runs on the board. for 4 yrs in a row hes kicked goals in a shizen side.name one richmond player of his type who has been better yet alone close to what hes produced as far as hitting the scoreboard goes for 4 yrs in a row.
and dont give me the betts bull poo a lot of the time hes looked a better player than betts. how old is eddie 28 29.

garlett or edwards as a sml fwd based on performance,  mate they arent in the same ball park.
. sheesh with logic like that ablett could have a shocking yr next yr and he would be no good.

[tigs2011]

We would turn Ablett into a pea-hearted squib who torches the footy. 

[lamington]

But we have lloyd right? I know he's not as quick off the blocks as Garlett but he's got great goal sense. Surely we can just save the draft pick and develop Lloyd to read the play better so he gets into better positions to make up for his lack of acceleration?

[Yeahright]

Oh forgot to add, & get Dmac back down at the club. His a one of a kind 21 year old HFF who is a real tiger on the ground. one of the best 21 year olds playing  get it done

Who?

Well said mate... I'm with you, I think he is a very good small forward. Struggled a little this year being in and out of the side. Not sure he and Mick see eye to eye. Looks to me like he needs a fresh start. Averaging 40 odd goals a season for the last 4 season speaks for itself.  We could do a lot worse than Garlett.
As for the S. Edwards comparison  and even funnier thinking McDonough will make it as a small forward. Lloyd has him covered and I could beat him in a leg race. 

[WA Tiger]

Get it done, get both of them, get all, just do somefuckingthing!!!

Lol!!!!!
I compared him to Edwards because I'm saying they are both bad.!!!!
How many goals would a mentally weak player like Garlett kick after he has contracted Tigeritis?
I'd rather recruit a young talented indiginous player than another Carlton reject.

NO MORE MONEYBALL!!!

[tony_montana]

I think its no coincidence that he's struggling now that betts has gone - not to mention Carltons form is another factor - gotta ask what makes people think he could perform better at Richmond where our talls lead to the boundary(or double back)? - our fwd line is a crumbers nightmare.

Hardly Moneyball!
Just because he is from another club doesn't mean it's Moneyball (even if you put it in CAPITAL LETTERS) 
Doesn't really matter anyway YABB, we haven't got the balls!

Strikes me as another run of the mill type  that sounds well against richmind - not so mich vs everyone else

It takes bigger balls to pick them young and develop them ourselves IMHO.
Neither you nor claw has conceded that he scored the goals with Betts in the side and his loss of "form" has coincided with Betts leaving.
Coincidence?

[Diocletian]

Straight swap for Shankwards would be a "win" of sorts.

[Dice]

I'd prefer to go to the draft for a indigenous kid. We might get lucky and get the next Stevie Motlop ?  Although more likely we'll pick someone like Relton ' Burger King ' Roberts or Troy ' porridge ' Taylor 

[Judge Roughneck]

Get a Geelong one instead
