Welcome to the Tigers Marlion Pickett!

You certainly would want Marlion on your side in a battle as you know he gives all
Certainly want him to be one of the first selected each week too, instead of him possibly only getting a game because KMac was injured.
I think he's staying in the seniors for a while after Thursday night was one of a handful that stood up.
Lacks some polish but not endeavour, he is still in my best side for the Tigers.
Aarts, Ross are not.
Plays like he won’t give his spot up without a fight ,,,ea week , I like him
I really like him on the wing, and moving him from there might mean Ross stays on the wing which is not good. But Marlion in the middle at centre bounces, sounds like a damned good idea to me. Those easy exits from the middle to Carlton would not have been so easy.
Time to give it a go . . . in fact, time to give it a go was about half way through the last quarter on Thursday. We clearly needed to stop the massacre we were getting at centre bounces so why not try the player who was in the best form on the night.

Yeah, but the more I think about it the more I like the idea of Marlion in the middle when the tide is against us. Put him there as a defensive mid to make it harder for the opposition.
DS
Why do people see Marlin as a defensive midfielder?
He didn’t play that role in the WAFL. He played in the middle, could play inside and out, but in particular had a penchant for moving forward with the footy and kicking long goals.
I’d get him in there and tell him to just do his thing.

I don’t care whether it’s Marlin or someone else but we need someone to help stop the opposition mids when they get on a role. Balta or Broad might be worth a shot. It’s seems we don’t have a plan b.
OK, put him there as an attacking mid. I think the notion of Marlion as a defensive mid is because he is very good in a defensive role and would be effective.
I just reckon it is worth a try having Marlion in the middle at times.
DS
Could be worth a look. Played on ball in the 2019 Grand Final…..Went alright.
I’m confident ourrucks will provide much better service in the future , nank out of 7day iso less than 24h earlier and soldo first up both will have a large say in a better clearance and contested performance in coming weeks.
I agree that both were underdone, then again, underdone in Round 1 is good timing.
I bloody hope you are right.
DS
Totally agree.
We should have done this already. Give him an extended run on the ball.
