Player Watch #50 Marlion Pickett Retirement

[Livonski]

If there’s head contact he’s cooked. Otherwise it gets thrown out.
tugga was there a medical report cited by the MRO?

 

[BillHickman]

The place Marlion comes from and the places he's been, that interaction with Moore is just a standard way of saying hello to your mates.

 

[Lord of the Wings]

Where the footage.
Get f’ed

You could clearly see the player was wearing a Richmond jumper. That's all the footage that was needed for Salty Scotty and Clueless Christian

If he was cited off the medical report and not the inconclusive vision then Christian is a halfwit.........wait of course he's a halfwit.

****en good bump... play on

 

[tigersnag]

I reckon Neil Blame is going to be making some calls tomorrow morning to AFL house. He's not going to be in a good mood.

'WTF is going on down their at the AFL circus? Shouldn't you bunch of polo playing softcocks be off stroking your egos, fixing a reputation for someone in the boys club or sexually discriminating women because you bunch of clueless pricks have a history with all of that."

One week ban from the MRP.
They are taking the piss now

Yet the cats player who concussed higgins off the ball, nothing to see hear

 

[Tenacious T]

This bloke hits hard……….very very hard.
I actually sat level 2 directly in front of that hit and not only heard it but felt the vibrations.
Everything he does is with genuine serious intent and love his intensity.
Need to do whatever to get him off.

Appeal every other campaigner does and gets cleared for worse

 

[Lord of the Wings]

The only vision is inconclusive. You can not possibly tell that it was high contact. So Christian has guessed. WTF happened to innocent until proven guilty?

Oh that's right common law rights don't apply to AFL sanctions

 

[GhostofJimJess]

There was no head contact , this should be appealed
View attachment 1401079

They're all saying on the telly "he ran past the ball".

Of course he did, he was laying a f**kin shepherd. That's the whole idea.

 

[tropicaltiger]

Must appeal
He got straight back up and played on

good call

a free kick only, Hawthorn got everything from The umps but they might have missed a free kick here against pickett.

so the match committee says "we can't have that don't worry we'll fix it up"
and we'll try and get him a week suspension instead.

Whats the free kick for?

It was perfectly timed bump with the ball within 10m of the bump.

 

[partycorolla]

It was perfectly timed bump with the ball within 10m of the bump.

He bumped a guy wearing a Hawthorn jumper while he was wearing a Richmond jumper. I'm surprised you haven't realised the AFL rules about this.

 

[energyquant]

Seriously, they choose to play the game. Make the players sign a waiver for injuries that occur in the course of the game or training. Have the Players Association (aka the players union) set up a fund to take care of those that suffer serious injury. Just stop trying to take the bump out of the game!

 

[tropicaltiger]

Whats the free kick for?

It was perfectly timed bump with the ball within 10m of the bump.

I only watched the replay once but it did look at Touch High
if you choose the bump and all that nonsense. if tigers appeal they would be happy with a downgrade to a fine i reckon.

 

[Lord of the Wings]

On a weekend where we got 22 free kicks and the Dawks got 55 how predictable was this?

 

[Wacko23Jacko]

I don't understand how you can say that's a week and a bloke lays a bump and concussed a bloke and it's not

All in the same flipping write up

Incompetent imbeciles

The game is becoming a joke. Surely we appeal this.

 

[Mr Unbelievable]

They don't know what they are saying on the telly ... complete dumbcampaigners

 

[Greggy]

So shepherds are no longer a football action? That’s the only conclusion I can make.

All in the same f*n write up

Again the cats player concussed higgins off the ball with a bump and thst is ok, club needs to grow some balls and appeal

 

[k31th]

Slow it down, pause it and frame by frame it if necessary... See for yourself...

I believe there's no head-contact and certainly not "medium" impact... I suspect they've just glanced at the full speed and not slowed it down at all to look at it properly and assumed there's head contact and since it's a "rough conduct" charge, the guidelines say this:
"Any high bump which constitutes Rough Conduct that has the potential to cause injury will usually be graded at a minimum as Medium Impact, even though the extent of the actual physical impact may be low." - https://resources.afl.com.au/afl/do...8e9ced332989/2022-AFL-Tribunal-Guidelines.pdf

If the RFC don't challenge this I'll be shocked.

 

[Sol23]

No head contact and didn’t even raise his elbow. Well timed bill to open the play for us. May aswel call afl netball now
