With an early plea. Before that it's a ridiculous $6250 by these revenue raising money hungry fat gut a-holes.

Welcome to the Tigers Marlion Pickett!

Never question his tenacity when the footy is in front of him. Different story with a sky ball. Maybe a better than average foot soldier but needs to play like it. Goes to pot post first option, pirouette in a 80+ GF team not withstanding.
Surprised at the negativity. Kept Petracca quiet. Loved the move to the middle and to tag. He won"t give up, runs all day and hard as a cats head. Smart by Yze.
Hopefully the start of more centre square action.
Disagree on the hard as a cats head part. Especially when under the ball, as others have mentioned.
Vlastuin is as hard as a cats head. That’s my reference for such players, not Marlion.
Whatever role he played last night is his role for the rest of the season.
Run the kids through the wings and start getting some aerobic strengthening in season then build up more in the pre season.
what is it 16 to go or something?

A hit like that should be a week IMO. But it never has been, and too many starts do it so they wont want to start rubbing them all out.
Yeh, I've pointed that out before. he's pretty much hopeless in the air unless running and jumping from behind.
But he doesn't shy from ground level contact, it's just an aerial thing. He likes hitting the body hard. He did a very good job on Petracca for the most part (he couldn't get separation, (Pickett is quick and has great aerobic capacity) and they didn't blitz us in the middle. He might have just found a new role.
The cupboard is bare.
Bet Oliver wishes those numbers come up at the Pokies each night.
I assume it is related to priors. I think Marlion was on 2nd offence, Pendlebury 1st
Except that this was Picketts second striking offence this year compared to Pendlebury's first, so nah, not 50% more just because he is Pickett or from Richmond.
Yeah I liked his role. His ball use has been poor of late, so its probably best for us twice over if we can limit the possessions that Marlion has, but use him in a better way that stifles the opposition. I think the best way to look at Petracca is he only had 8 kicks, which is where he generally does his damage, he only had 8 kicks (his lowest for the year), in fact if you look back over the last few years, in 2023 he has 2 games of 8 or under kicks out of 25 games, in 2022 he had 2 out of 24, and in 2021 when they won the premiership he had 0 games with 8 or below kicks out of 25 games.
So essentially the 3 years prior to this one, he'd played 74 games, and only had 8 or under kicks in 4 of them. That was a big win for us.
I think is cos Pendleburys was considered in play- at a stoppage- where as Picketts was off the ball.
Petrecca was rated 15th after the Brisbane game after he was tagged.
But against Pickett he was still the 2nd best player on the ground.
So Pickett must've done a shittjob
