Welcome to the Tigers Marlion Pickett!

[The_Celebrant]

Pickett’s actions ‘were not a good look for the game’.

I don't think Darcy Moore's hair is a good look for the game. Should get 4 weeks.

 

[Redford]

He might get a downgrade at the tribunal and get off with a fine. Who knows.

He certainly downgraded his game on Friday night. Error after error.

 

[eZyT]

Watching back through the replay, Pickett had a seriously awful game on Friday.

It would have to be close to the worst exhibition of handball ever seen on an AFL ground.

I wouldn't mind seeing him get a week off just to get him out of the side to reset.

yeah he had a Barry Crocker.

Spot on.
He wasnt playing well period.
A week off regardless of a suspension will do him good.

 

[mjb]

Imagine the outrage if we get the weeks suspension downgraded to a fine, then rest him for a week.

 

[DavidSSS]

Yeah, Marlion can be a bit on again off again at times, but only played 50 games.

Not great by Marlion but should only be a fine.

[TigerPort]

Yeah, Marlion can be a bit on again off again at times, but only played 50 games.

Not great by Marlion but should only be a fine.

DS

Only played 30 games

Seems like 50+ but will not get to that milestone until 2022 at the earliest

 

[DavidSSS]

Gee, read that wrong, only 30, he will hopefully get more consistent.

You obviously haven’t watched Castagna try to execute that particular skill TBR.

Brisbane medical report should help Marlion.

The Brisbane medical report shows Brandon Starcevich required no ongoing treatment as a result of Pickett's strike and was not expected to miss any training sessions or matches.

 

[Baloo]

"I'm trying to get there as soon as possible to put pressure on or interrupt the kick, I slow down so I don't slip over. He steps to the right and makes me change direction towards him."
At the point of impact, Pickett says he is attempting to tackle Starcevich "around the chest".
"I'm trying to grab his jumper."

Tribunal Chairman summary:

Hey Marlion - thanks for coming tonight but unfortunately you've wasted your time and money. Me and boys all think you're innocent and to be frank Starcevich is a pussy for lying down after the hit. In my day we would have marched him out of the club for not getting straight up. The issue I have is that Shocking and Gilligan have both been on the blower today. They insisted that I rub you out cause you play for the Tigers and gee wizz they hate you guys. Given they pay the bills around here I've got no option but to follow their orders. Cheers and good luck for the rest of the year - you'll need it cause the whole of AFL headquarters is gunning for you blokes.

Between you and I - Shocking and Christian are shitting themselves that Benny will get Gilligans job next year and if that happens they know they'll be out on their ass and their high paying gig will be over. Hence their knives are out so watch you're back son.

Probably not that far off the mark Kong !

[tigerhalsey]

Bloody monkeys at AFL HQ, seriously if this is what they are arguing, half the AFL should be rubbed out this week

 

[tigerhalsey]

 

[Mantikorr]

I always feel like we make the wrong argument at the tribunal. Should have been arguing that it wasn't a strike at all, not the level of impact

 

[Redford]

Have they put him in the stocks yet ? Are the AFL brown shirts throwing fruit at him ?

 

[Disco]

Reckon he has a slim chance here.
