Welcome to the Tigers Marlion Pickett!

[mrposhman]

Such and important player for us. His physicality is 2nd to no-one in this team. His endurance is incredibly important and has great speed across the turf. With Marlion and Kmac on each wing, it really sets up our turnover gameplan. I can't believe Dimma ever thought that Aarts should play wing over him. One of the few errors Dimma has made over the last 5-6 years.

Getting better and better. Making up for being overlooked for so many years. Critical for the way we play. Would like to see him in the guts more helping out cotch prestia and Graham hopefully Hugos steady improvement can allow this.

Hugo ain’t ready to take Marlion’s wing. At the moment he’s a butcher.

*smile* he's hard at it.
I love the way he plays. Just a bloody tough, real footballer.
Didn't take any *smile* in the melee either.

 

[DavidSSS]

Must play every week for us to be a realistic Premiership chance , in a year where there is no standout team , a player like MP who genuinely scares the opposition can be a huge factor going into the important part of the season

Yep, and much as he is a great winger, I love seeing Pickett in the middle, he should get more time as a centre.

That tackle on Cripps was as perfect as you can get on a 195cm midfielder.

The best I've seen.
I can't think of 1 better. Townsend on Crouch.
He is unbelievable so important to our side.
He Sheppards, he bumps, he intimidates.
He has been my best player this year.

It sure was and Cripps is so used to being that 195cm bull who can just push away the smaller guys, so he essentially runs into tackles (you see RCD try this but he's nowhere near as strong in both the upper body and doesn't have the same core strength), but then Cripps ran into Marlion. He wasn't breaking that tackle.

Would have to be top 3 in the B & F ??

Cotch on Mummy was better, but that was second.

 

[Redford]

He’s a heaaaavy tackler.

He’s a heaaaavy tackler.

A brutal but fair tackler.

Tackles to ‘hurt’.

 

[French Tiger]

With Prestia set the tone early. Good game.

He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother.

Is it dumb for a 50+ year old man to get a replica jumper with 50 on it?

I'M CONSIDERING IT

I know of one other, he wore it to the 19 GF. I had the Marlion badge on, got a lot of comments.

MRO have come back with their review of the game.

They found Pickett's tackle on Cripps in the first quarter of the game to not be within the spirit of the game. A mid season draft pick has no right to perform such violent acts on a much smaller opponent in Cripps.

As a result the MRO will suspend Pickett indefinitely.

Has Prestia been sent straight to the tribunal for his brutal assault on precious Patty yet?

 

[Tiger Ghost]

Makes blokes nervous around the ball just like Byron Pickett did, if you've got the pill and Marlion is inbound its a good idea to make it someone else's problem. If he nails you you stay nailed.
