Past #6: Taylor Garner - delisted end '21 - 49 NM games/37 NM goals - go well Garns

[Snake_Baker]

Risky move rookie listing him no.....can’t they be picked up by another club?

I don't care, just sign him mate.

 

[LB2Snake]

Performed his contractually obligated two games a season. Now let's all get our hopes up really high.

He looks fitter than ever dont ya think? Gotta keep him.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

Hahah..... by R4 2021 we will be ranting about why the hell is he still on the god damn list !!?!

I disagree. Care to have a bet?

 

[Roosurgence]

Just get him to some eastern block country and inject him with horse jizz or whatever that stuff is that will fix him.

Horse jizz would be too scared to get into Garners bloodstream.

I just think we need to take the punt on him again. Opposition players s**t themselves when he is in the vicinity.

I like the idea of a contract based on games played with the second year triggering a bigger wave if he can get on the park next year.

I wouldn’t be surprised if another club comes knocking and tries to take him.

 

[Devington]

So, the majority now view is we should keep him?

LOL, that was the minority view a week ago.

He came in and played like he hadn't been injured at all. IMO he's been the best conditioned of all the long/medium termed injured blokes to come back into the squad. That says a lot.

 

[Heaps of fun]

He looks in great condition. I thought he was covering the ground brilliantly in 2017 and had turned a corner then.

 

[shintemaster]

He's a fair bit ahead of quite a few on our team that don't struggle for fitness. Wouldn't kill me if he got some kind of lifeline for us... wage needs to come in completely though. Talent has never been the question but fair to say he'd probably give us more in 12 games a year than a fair bit of the list.

Yeah I’m going purely off memory, but I don’t feel like he‘s ever looked like an athlete. Now he does. Hope he keeps going and he’s doing the necessary precautionary stuff for his hammy’s. Like Pilates or whatever.
be interested to know if he has undertaken any of those steps This year.

 

[Uncle_Leo]

Terrible shame this blokes career has been killed by injuries

Thanks for your service, awful for both parties it didn’t work out

 

[Only Forwards]

8 years, 46 games. A couple of ok dead rubber games shoykd have no bearing.

If the club believes hes up to playing 15 games, give him a year.

This.

 

[Billy Not Really]

Gets 1 year, but by god is it going to be his last if he doesn't deliver.

When he's able to get on the park at least he provides something, presence, and it shows up more often than say Wood has.

 

[shinboner magic]

I’d delist him if it was a line ball call with another player with similar ability but it’s not.

There’s about 15 players you’d delist before him and that includes a few that are contracted.

Just star fit son.

 

[tazaa]

Rookie him.
Needs to play minimum amount of games to warrant a new deal.

 

[Ashley B]

Taylor is a difficult one, certainly has plenty of talent but does not play anywhere near enough. I think we will offer him one year , but would not be surprised if we let him go.

 

[R00StaR]

Love how he moves through traffic, much like LDU. We have plenty that can be culled. He's a keeper imo.

 

[ferball]

Tonight might've refreshed some people on how much more competitive we are when guys like Garner and Turner are prowling our forward lines and creating opportunities for others.

He was important late last year.

But 11 games in the last three seasons. He is a bit like one those holes you can find yourself in, just digging deeper and deeper trying to get out. Its hard to believe his hammies will hold up. If they do he's well worth it.

 

[speedy]

He is such a ******* tease. I wouldn’t blame the club if they went either way with him.

[Snake_Baker]

He jumps out at me as the sort of bloke that would influence big finals.

WE just need him to:

1) Get a contract
2) Get a good run with injury.

A pre season following LMac around

 

[Ry009]

One game shouldn't decide a career, but considering we're heading into a transition phase, not unhappy to give him another year on base money with triggers for games played/performance etc.

Need to continue the worth ethic we saw last night through pre-season with the kids and draftees.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

In a team full of less than adequate disposers of the ball, he’s one of the worst.

 

[Flawed Genius]

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

In the cold light of the day after, the only thing that can save a bloke whos aggressive with average skill who, does not play, is the fact theres only so many you can move on.

 

[scooby1279]

times up... we need to get past holding onto players who may "one day" be injury free and consistent, he is neither in 8 years at the club.
