I thought Garner was pretty good yesterday against the Swans. Played the second half and ended up with 11 touches and 5 marks. He looks proper fit for the first time in a long time, after having an uninterrupted run at it since his 'indiscretion' in Sydney last year.
I have been most impressed with his ability in the contest. He buries blokes in tackles and has an uncanny ability to work his hands free to get a handball to a team mate with blokes hanging off him, which is not something a lot of our blokes do. He also seems to have a clam head on his shoulders, making well though out decisions with the ball. Pity his execution can let him down sometimes. I'd like to see him run through the middle at times when we need an injection of physicality to shift momentum.
I have a funny feeling about Garner this year. I think something is going to click...
