I don’t believe that he did enough to deserve a recall but I take Kruddler’s point about the need for speed.
Yeah great, he'll be really really fast at turning it over.

I'm more inclined to pick someone who'll get the ball and use it first before I worry about how fast they run.

21. Jarrod Garlett
Stats: Seven disposals, three clearances
From the coach: He had moments which were important in our front half which came on the back of his pressure. He was unselfish to set up Matt Owies for our first goal, so there was a team element to what he was doing. It’s about consistency with Jarrod: the small forward role can be difficult but we need him to continue applying pressure as we saw in stages on the weekend.

Not the sort of glowing review that demands a recall. Looked even less effective in the flesh at Vic Park. No way he’ll make the cut.

I’m more inclined to pick a balanced team that can match the opposition and exploit their weaknesses.  Going into the game with too many slow but reliable footballers would be a recipe for disaster.

That said, I wouldn’t have Garlett in the 22.  He needs to show a lot more (but he could be outstanding at training for all I know).

Garletts issue is confidence. When he has it, his kicking is a sight to behold. Unfortunately, throwing him to all corners of the ground has unsettled him and his game has suffered. Find him a spot and leave him there and you'll see his output improve.

Cuningham for Polson. Don't think Charlie will come up, if he does then expect Meat to get the chop  ??? (which would be unfair in some regards).

Then again, if Charlie plays, SOJ is sent back to the NBs (which would also seem unfair in some ways)?

Garlett isnt a contested player , wont ever make it at AFL level...back to the WAFL for him...

Still only 22. I reckon he's worth hanging onto for a bit longer. He does some special things. Given a run in a successful team - who knows?

Interesting to note that the Northern Blues article on their team list says all the players named on the Carlton extended bench are nemed in the Northern squad.

BUT neither Charlie Curnow nor Kade Simpson are named in the Northern Squad.  I take from this that they are seniors or nothing - hopefully both are good to go, but I suppose the pessimist
might say it suggests both will be missing on the weekend.

And yet if he has 6 touches and kicks 2 goals is that a better effort than Polson's 6 disposals, 3 tackle effort?
