What's on Tuck's ears?

I've been wondering this for weeks... Is he covering piercings, does he have some sort of ear infection, or does he have a remote earpiece in? Can't work it out...
 
Plug to try to keep his brain in. Maybe they should pull it out it might help with his disposal which is foul. He is one of the major reasons we do not get a good start out of the midfield - name one other side that has someone as bad as him (disposal wise) in their starting midfield ?
 
Yes he is deaf because he has that stuff stuffed in there - if he took it out he would be able to hear !

Harsh, who do we have to replace him with right now? He's hard tough at it and today was 77% effective, out of all of the players that got over 25 possies he was the most efficient. If you take tuck out youd see a lot less clearances going down our end that's for damn sure.

Funny you say the ear piece, as the Western Bulldogs reported that to an emergency umpire as they thought he had an earpiece in and plough talking to him. Richmond had a please explain and it was pretty simple really. Infection and deafness is the reason.

You should have left your ear plug in. Maybe then you'd have the brain to not make silly statements like this.

Tuck will not win a Brownlow, will not have the silky disposal skills of others etc. etc. And in an ideal world, he probably wouldn't get a game with us. But he does, because we don't have much else, and because if nothing else, he is a guy who gives everything and more. I'd like to see the same level of commitment coming from some of our other highly prized players, particularly the younger guys who have been handed opportunity on a plate time and time again and not shown anything, even the desire to make it at this level.

You ought to be thanking Tuck for his efforts, because he has been doing it in the name of playing for the Richmond Football Club. Here is a bloke who has put in countless hours of demanding training to try to succeed at AFL level, and all you can do is bag him. I'd like to see you stick at his training regime for a week, let alone the 10 years or so he has probably been doing it.

:clap Dont log in that much now (but read near every day) But spot on...Dont know why but that loss was one of the most disapointing for a while...
Everyone can bang on about if we won it would only wallpaper over the cracks..Bul l s hit..We know where we are at..To keep players like Delidio and cotchin ,we need to win games..And i dont care how many times people say we need to bottom out...been there done that and look where we are?...
WIN games thats all i care about..
Wanna tank,go follow someone else,because tanking doesnt work for us.
 
Wouldn't being deaf be a disability on the football field?

A lot of times you handball to voice, when going for a mark you need to hear whether someone else is going for it, and you need to hear your teammates when you're hot...
