Season in review
Tarrant was able to play just one game in a 2014 plagued by injuries.
His year started off slowly as he attempted to recover from a persistent stress reaction in his tibia. It was the same problem which affected the first half of 2013, and it looked like it would ruin all of 2014 as well.
Nevertheless, after an intense training program, Tarrant was able to return to full fitness halfway through the season and returned for Werribee early in June.
One game was all that was needed for the key-position forward to return to the North Melbourne side, travelling to Adelaide to face the Crows.
Unfortunately the number 25 pulled up sore from his season debut and was later found to have aggravated the old injury. He would eventually be ruled out for the season.
With his recovery going to plan, the 25-year-old should resume training in December.

"For the last five or six weeks I've done a really solid training program and played in the VFL last week and physically I felt really good out there…[it was] probably the best I've pulled up all year."
October 8 – Tarrant backed in – NMFC.com.au
