Toast Pick 38 - Welcome to Hawthorn, Dayle Garlett

[streetspirit]

Apparently living with Hodgey this week before they all go to South Africa.

 

[BlueWaterHawk]

He averaged 22 possessions per game and kicked 48 goals playing senior WAFL football at 19 years old
He would have been well known to opposition clubs as talented but young, and playing against grown men would have been targeted for extra treatment, and came out on top

No fairy tale there

1 year of this is easily worth 2 pre-seasons of training, as you learn as you go, or fade away

Yeah I know, thought I'd have a bit of fun though I agreed he should be rated highly

 

[Steven Tyler]

If he wants an AFL career badly enough we have the most talented player in the draft (With Boyd)
Talent wise he is a ripper!

 

[Randy Campbell]

I heard he kicked 60 goals and shot lightning from his eyes the legend grows!

Don't forget he feeds baby's to pit bull's for fun.

All this talk about risk is rubbish.

so many dead baby jokes, so little time...

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

Article on ninemsn is good.

Sounds like a solid unit.

Heatherley is a beast. He's massive in that photo

"He kills men by the hundreds, and if he were here, he'd consume <the opposition> with fireballs from eyes and bolts of lightning from his arse"

 

[Off The Couch]

I would hope that the club request that he be left alone to focus on settling in to his new club
Clarko has said that he has a clean slate so I don't see why they need to be hovering around
If he messes us then it's open slather but until then he should be afforded the luxury of 'getting on with it' the same as all other new recruits have.

i hope he has a braveheart....

 

[HawksTHteam2beat]

Shows where we are at. Able to take a punt on this talented yet wayward kid. He could be anything for us.

All the best Dayle, let's see you on the podium on Grand Final day this year

next year

Speaks well in this. Seems to have had a bit of media training already as he does throw out a few of the well used answers. Doesn't come across as cocky or that he thinks he's better than anyone else which is really good. Hopefully he means what he said and isn't just trying to say the right stuff.

Listening to the press conference, actually staying with Welfare manager Jason Burt for the moment.

 

[hamohawk1]

got absolutely grilled by the media today. handled it well

My guess would be this is his first official day at the club. He is a prime candidate to live for a period with an AFL player for a period of time so he knows what is expected of him at and away from the club. If he does move in with Hodge before the trip or afterwards or maybe even with a different player. I have no doubt it will happen.

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Is saying all the right things. Very pleased at this stage.

 

[Bosk]

Each time the selection panel sit to decide whether or not to name Poppy in the squad they should be forced to view this video.

Brilliant vid, thanks for posting.


But yeah I reckon its only the "BigFooty hawk selection panel" who needs to see that kind of evidence. I have a feeling Puopolo its one of Clarko's favorites and its not hard to see why.

That look on Clarko's face says it all ... "you beautiful pint sized son of a bitch".

This chase is simply amazing.

I agree. 1%-er of the year/season/century/millenium.

Stirring stuff from the pup.

 

[xellis]

Think its safe to say we all agree about Puopolo's pressure.

Back to the chosen one, Garlett now please.

How I've missed Robbo's sudden, mid sentence changes in tone and volume.

Bring on 2014

I reckon he's about one pot away from "I bloody love you, mate" here. A few pre-taping shandies by the sounds of him...

 

[TyHawk]

Garlett looks like a little kid who discovered Disney land!! Happy , can't wipe the smile from his face! Yes boy you better believe it 'you are one lucky SOB to be at the best club!!!!' Now make the most of it.

 

[Garf]

How pissed was Robbo ?

Welcome Dayle, and hang on because it's gonna be a spectacular ride !

On the other hand if Freo had kicked straight he would have been lucky to get that many. He was good however he went missing at times (although that comes with his position). Still his pressure in the 12 minute mark of the last still brings a tear to my eye.
