Player Watch #50 Marlion Pickett Retirement

[rmcq]

Direct replacement for 31 year old Shaun Grigg. He's going to be hungry for this. Winning.

I didn’t see much ruck work in his video. He’d better start practicing.

I can't believe AFL clubs can get away with paying kids only $50k lol That doesn't get you very far these days....let alone having to relocate to another state! You've been practicing your profession for 20 years, get a job at 27yo and you get paid that. Ouuffff

Sssssssshhhhhh that’s all we got left in the cap , it’s a bargain

 

[Bojangles17]

Glad the recruiters listened to me take the best talent Pickett or Bolton

But seriously we back our leadership and group in to get the best out of players who ppl see as risks

Pickett joins great indigenous leaders in sheds and Daniel as well as Bolton/egg/stack

Not a bad idea to keep stacky on the straight an narrow Pickett has done it tough went to jail and now gets his chance

From south freo like Bolton

finger break is a smokescreen

Nothing wrong with that for May to September (or less). That’s the equivalent of $120,000 pa. Plus a $20,000 golden handshake at the end. Beats Google’s offer to their interns of nothing.

Like he can tackle to.

Looks like a good mover and quick to with skill.

I like the strategy.

Good luck, hope he and we make the best of it

He is tough and skillful

 

[Rocco sifreddi]

Pickett bursts from the centre sidearse and trelol
Cant tackle him he burns them off he takes a bounce and kicks it lace out to lynch!!

 

[parmy2balmey]

dude u are always late to the party

traffic in egypt is mental

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Have to get him used to playing with Lunch so he can time his leads properly.

bolton’s mum is a pickett

 

[TigersMP4]

Hopefully his finger isn't a long term issue.

 

[THE_GUN]

You guys have got a gun here. If he gets a chance to thrive he will do stuff that you will go WTAF

So like Sydney Stack ??

 

[Mr Unbelievable]

Listed as Height: 183cm Weight: 85kg Position: Defender, Midfield
I've done some calculations using the Richmond player stat app
and taking into consideration a preseason at Punt Rd and guidance from our fitness team
the RFC slayer stat app spat out these figures:
Height: 194cm Weight: 95kg Position: Inside Mid Bull

Sounds Legit

 

[Muddiemoose]

Can’t believe the club hasn’t updated the website yet

I want a player profile and photo

What kind of two bit operation are they running

Absolute joke imo

Bit taller but just as tough and he can play HBF, mid,HFF, he’s even rucked before.

Looks like you missed what i meant

"You guys have got a gun here. If he gets a chance to thrive he will do stuff that you will go WTAF "

We already do when we watch SS

He really is griggas replacement

moves a lot like Kelly to me.

 

[Cotchin 9]

Back the club on this one. Sounds exciting

 

[nurries]

He really is griggas replacement

Agreed

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Gone from Griggs to Picketts. Best.

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Agreed

So what would you classify his weapons and weaknesses as mate

Seriously though I love Sydney Stacks development, but believe me this guy is next level and you will be going how the **** has he not been drafted until now. I reckon he is much better at WAFL level than Kelly was (although older).

Dub ... delist website team

His disposal is first rate. Great mover in traffic and reads the play quicker than most. Strong in the contest. Probably doesn’t always get a massive amount of possessions ala Kelly but does a lot with them and can play anywhere
