#35 - Matt Guelfi - now til 2026!

I think he was genuinely picked to do a job on Short, who was one of the few weapons the Tigs had off half back.

Have we already discussed Long term injury list influence with this injury? Guelf seems great and all as a bloke but this is beneficial for us yeah?

It would take a bad hamstring to go on LTI. McGrath’s jaw might though.

Just retire him now

Thanks Matt

B) he knows that too
C) he will never be picked for us again anyway
D) he looks great still

I truly believe he doesn’t prepare very well and is vulnerable to soft tissue injuries

Might be controversial, and understand we need to prioritised youth, but I think we should’ve picked him for the Challenge game this weekend, as a fitting farewell to Guelf, He does a hell of a lot behind the scenes, including weekly hospital visits to young Lexi. Personally would’ve dropped Merrett for him, neither likely to be at the club next year, anyway.

Good on him for what he’s done in that space, but you don’t give farewell games to the Guelfi’s of the world.

He’s been excellent for his charity work but you don’t gift farewell games to players like him

He always played in the right spirit and is a good clubman.

You still don’t gift farewell games to C or D grade players

At his best he was a B-

… for half a dozen games.

His best was certainly good enough, but seen far too infrequently, mostly due to injuries.

We didn’t even give Heppell a send of game in Melbourne.. why would they give one to Guelfi

Who said I’d gift him a game? You’re jumping at shadows.

Never prepared like a professional AFL player. Subsequently he had many soft tissue injuries. Loves the party life.
