Punt Road End. The best place to watch The Tiges.
The lure of being close to his family. There is a lot of noise about Freo offering him a contract.
That would be disappointing. We gave him his chance and I recall him stating that he wouldn't play for another club because of that. Don't want to lose him so hopefully that is still the case. I believe he the longer he is in our system the better he will be. Plus we want his kids under F/S rule.
Freo can *smile* off. He was under their noses for years and they ignored him.
Same. Reckon he will request a trade. Impossible to gauge value, give us a second rounder.
I agree. If a player wants to return to his home state for personal and family reasons it would be counter productive trying to block it. Besides, if he does want to go we have trained and instilled value into him for a trade
I'll believe this when I see it.
Reckon Marlion will be staying around for a few more years.
Unless the Dockers massively over pay. Then I couldn't blame him.

watched the last couple of minutes of the prelim.
A ball comes in, we are 6 points up,
and Marlion stands in front of a steaming Ladhams.
He leaps in the air to get a hand in the ball, leaving himself completely exposed.
he gets a fist on the ball.
There is no sign whatsoever of him adopting any technique to protect himself whatsoever,
of course.

I love that we’re a club who respects what a player and their family wants. This year would’ve been tougher on him and his family than almost any other player on our list I reckon.
It should get easier from here, but whatever happens he’ll always be a tiger legend.

I think this year may have been one of his easier ones. If we put aside the distance from WA factor aside, this year Marlion has been able to get free housing, free meals, free entertainment, free medical etc for the entire family. Having 4 young kids that's always going to be tough but with the extended family in the hub, that would have made it a lot easier.
While it would have been harder for families with established support networks & family in Melbourne, for Marlion I reckon the Hub was a godsend if the alternative was a locked down family in Melbourne.
I reckon it must have been tough on some of the blokes without a partner or family in the hub.
especially the quieter blokes?
Its purely a guess, a little informed by form, but I reckon its been really tough on Lambo and Danny
