The thing I found with Garlett is that his skills let him down when he was going at top pace. Makes me wonder if he gets into top gear at training much or if he slacks off. Kicking will always be an issue, has not got the greatest kicking technique I've seen but it's not terrible all the same. Recon he aims at the right post when kicking for goal which is fine for most right footers as it allows it to move from right to left. But he needs to learn to aim inside the right post when he's close to goal, boy can he he hit the thing. I don't recon there's been much wrong with his attitude, still chases hard, it's just that our whole move the ball slowly, around the boundry and allow the opposition to get numbers around the play and back in defence and how we were going to the boundry all the time again making it hard for guys at ground level to find space was making it hard for him. Last week against Collingwood was the first time in a long time that we moved the ball up the middle and kicked the ball to our forwards in a more central position and pushed more numbers behind the ball and ran harder from behind the ball (Yarran exceptional) and really opened things up more in our forward half and it was the best Yarran has played in a long time, he has not been the only one to suffer from that crap brand of footy we have played the last two months. Give him time, if we keep playing a good brand of footy and win the clearances he will start getting his hands on it more and then hopefully his skills will come good and then his confidence will follow and stupid rumors will end.
