Welcome to the Tigers Marlion Pickett!

[Little Ziggyadee]

Had an impact BUT had 8 touches in the first quarter and 2 across the second and third. Cleary ran out of puff. The sub was the right call.

There was talk that he was fit as a fiddle while training remotely and then came back and Ceaser's good oil told us that he was in rehab a fair bit.

We need the first-quarter Pickett across the entire game. He's an interesting watch, how fit is he?

He blew a gasket after half time.
Treadmill job.
3 qtr time couldn't come quick enough.
If we are to challenge this year we need Pickett 110% fit. He looked about 35% on thurzdey night.

 

[Eddie from Elwood]

I dont disagree at all. but his impact definitely waned after a huge 1st quarter.

I've said it before, but the way he sags off, just waiting for a player to get suckered in to kick it to a team mate over Marlion's head......and he's just there leaping and taking the mark in front.

 

[Dont Argue]

Huge 1st quarter.
Massive last quarter. Helped to turn the tide with some great solo efforts.
Looking forward to seeing a full 4 quarter game.

I'm looking forward to seeing him play more minutes in the midfield.

If Hopper misses next week, put Pickett in there and bring in Clark to take his wing spot.

 

[Willo]

Was crucial in the last qtr

 

[spook]

Shame the kick was smothered after his piercing run through the guts. Apart from his debut, we've pretty much used Marlion as a defensive player. I think we're going to see him go to another level offensively this year.

 

[St Kevin]

Was crucial in the last qtr

He and Cotchin won us the game with their attack on the footy.

 

[The Big Richo]

He really does play AFL like a country footballer which is both a strength and a weakness.

Had my heart in my mouth at his approach a couple of times today. He walks a fine line between brutal and illegal.

Fantastic when it goes well, but there's no doubt he's going to see MRP action at regular intervals.

Doesn’t matter - love how he plays. He hurts the opposition.

 

[jimbob]

Love the way he plays. Nobody can EVER question his work ethic.

 

[French Tiger]

How good is he at either intercepting marks or at least killing a marking contest on the wing

 

[Scoop]

Would be the greatest NRL player ever.

 

[Rantnrave]

Another MAJOR reason we got todays win..As important a player in our team as anyone.
Dusty Jack and Cotch might get all the love but Marlion is the better player theze last 3 years

 

[Ice]

ive said this before, but he would be a nightmare match up

so tough, so athletic,

 

[rensman]

Crows players knew he was playing. Several instances proved it

 

[artball]

a rough diamond and one of the greatest movers in the game

 

[UKTiger]

He does everything we ask of him and more, a class act again

 

[Mr Brightside]

Underrated pace , so important to us in the way we want to play , I’m liking the KFC 3 wing pack , Pickett, Kmac and Shorty , like that Shorty ads something different to the hard working defensive wings

 

[bricci]

Thought both our wingers were great in Adelaide. Yes, they both drifted in and out of the game a bit but gee they both run hard and have great closing speed. Pickett's 3 efforts in that culminated in that pass to Lynch and goal was the individual highlight of the match!

 

[Tigers of Old]

Made one howler but I thought he was fantastic yesterday. He's such an underrated player.
