Ty Vickery - Can we fix him?

[Pusswah]

Before image macro'ing DO NOT WANT and stuff have a ponder.

We need a tall forward. Even when Tabs comes on, Pav will most likely not be there next year. Tabs and Apeness next year won't cut the mustard - maybe 2-3 years after that but languishing in the bottom half of the eight sounds crap to me.

Ty is going to struggle to get a game barring injury. Griffiths played his arse off last night and with the flying mullet running around wild and free as nature intended, there's no spot. While he's far from elite, Ty is better than being a depth player for 3 or 5 games a year of hammies and stuff.

Ty is also a ****ing bonehead. Between this and not being great, his asking price should be reasonable. Really the question is 'Can we fix him?'.

For every Jack Anthony there's a Chris Tarrant. For every Colin Sylvia there's a... oh ****it, never mind.

No, no and NO! (no offence)

 

[Lost_Deputy]

I can see Hawks getting him and turning him around and everyone scratching their heads at how they do it

 

[Jezzitizle]

Not under any circumstances.

 

[Clems Knee]

He's not all bad. He did whack Mr Flappy.

 

[Sweetback]

Bond, Lloyd and RTB will have added the 'Colin Sylvia addendum', which besides from the usual filtering process, poses the question: Was he ever consistently good?
If it's a no, we don't go down there.

So in this case. No. Also, I don't think Vckery is smart enough to get his head around the Diploma of Positioning and Structuring we seem to ask our players to go through when learning the game plan.

 

[Kram]

About the only decent thing the bloke has ever done was whack a flailing Dean Cox.

 

[E Shed]

Yeah, nah.

 

[beetz]

Cross town rivals would love this.

I reckon Aaron Black would be a better option, who will probably have the shits on that kangas have Waite for 2 years.

 

[Halfbaked]

It would ALMOST be worth it just to hear the bullcrap that would flow from the egirls. It would be priceless, but no.

 

[Bicco]

'To fix' suggests that something that was working well now doesn't. If Vickery had a history of at least occasionally dominating games and producing match winning performances, then perhaps we could 'fix' him. But he doesn't, so no from me.

 

[rodney hoo]

Tigers won't give him away, it probably take a first round pick, can't see it happening & at present he is not that good.

 

[Grape Bear]

Vickery? Really?

 

[Taylor]

Griffiths is a superior player.

I don't think Vickery has enough lateral agility or ground ball collecting hands.

Richmond are into Vickery far too much deep to part with him cheap

 

[electricfeel]

Vickery is such a dickhead.

 

[Kram]

If he wasn't drafted so high I bet his name wouldn't even come up, it means jack shit 7 years later.

 

[Grape Bear]

If he wasn't drafted so high I bet his name wouldn't even come up, it means jack shit 8 years later.

Colin Sylvia was a #3 draft pick. Just saying.

 

[Rob]

To repeat what everyone else is saying......no.

I'd rather go and find a Podsiadly type from the state leagues if we need a stop gap for a year or 2. Couldn't be any worse than Vickery and wouldn't cost anything.

 

[TheInjuryFactory]

Did anybody catch that Richmond pre-season show on telly last night?? The guy is a deadset clown, DO NOT TOUCH.

Firmly in the "Colin Sylvia Basket"

 

[se17enteen]

Can the middle east conflict be fixed?

Would take Jack Hannath over Tyrone the Spud any day.

 

[Pusswah]

Would take Jack Hannath over Tyrone the Spud any day.

I love Big Jack but if he could get near the ball or take a mark i'd agree.

 

[purplefrog]

Don't care about his ability or our need.
Not the sort of bloke I want at our club.

 

[Righteo]

Speaking of taking marks, might be worth having a word or two in Levi Casboult's ear if Liam bloody Jones manages to keep him out of Carlton's team this year.
