Murray Newman

murray newman v dayle garlett who is better?

Similar levels of talent in my opinion. Would favour Newman as he could be a genuine inside mid rotation.

Are you another one of those posters who doesn't know anything about Murray Newman?

Yes. That is how I formed this opinion.

 

[dajesmac]

Yes. That is how I formed this opinion.

It's fairly conceivable that you're basing your assessment off of hype.

 

[WCEforeverman]

It's also conceivable that your assessment is influenced by the fact that Newman is on our list.

I have no doubt Newman's off-field behaviour caused a few concerns and therefore his draft position may not be reflective of his talent. I know that Port put a line through him based on him these concerns.

However having watched both of them play, raw talent wise, Garlett is the much much better prospect.

I think Newman is a super talent and would hate to see him leave, but if someone offered me the chance for a straight swap I definitely would take it.

we could just get both.

this is the internet, so no.

I would love both.

The comparison only came because a previous poster asked.

I disagree that Garlett is the much better prospect. The only game I've seem them both play in at colts and Murray kicked 5 goals with 33? posessions from the midfield, whilst Dayle had 28 (I think) and kicked 6? goals, playing as a high HFF/forward. I thought they were fairly even then.

Did they just kick it to each other all day?

Probably, although I remember one of Garlett's goals was breaking away from the wing and sprinting, with ball in hand, into the F50. He didn't need anyone else's assistance.

Nice. Do you think he have it between the ears to make it as an on baller at AFL level?

Garlett or Newman?

I'm undecided on Garlett, but think Newman does.

Was referring to Garlett, but that's good to hear about Newman.

Wut. He was the one who referred to my own opinion as 'dreaming'.

Hopefully Simpson, wants to keep him, and go for Garlett.

 

[Noctorniquet]

I'd like simpson to sit newman down, say in no uncertain terms, i dont know you personally yet like woosha did, you obviously have talent, but you have a pre season to impress me or you are out the door. Ala Ross Lyon and walters, would love to see it pay dividends, think newman can be very handy if his head stays screwed on

Honestly, I think he'll be a bit more settled after Dec 16th and able to put his mind to the job a lot better than the last year.

Garlett likes Melbourne. Like a lot of kids his age he would like to get out of town. I wouldn't read to much into it.

Post was about Newman, Dec 16th being his trial. But yes, I wouldn't be fussed with anything Garlett has said so far.
