Someone mentioned it earlier but considering his background and story, the treatment of him by the AFL and general football media has been pretty diabolical. Can only think it is because he is playing for us through our successful era.

How devastating for him and his partner after designing the Dreamtime Guernsey

Too obvious jimbob. Scapegoat.

If the Scum got away with it when Higgo kicked that goal called a 'throw', it's time for our banner to show our real hidden message to these pricks.

Must appeal by using the Kolodjashnij comparison, been a Dreamtime game and guernsey designer.

Wake these f-tards up.

No. He got assessed and played out the game. And it wasn't like he shouldn't have expected contact. Pickett did what you would expect a good teammate to do - protect the ball carrier.
So what's the issue then?

For some reason Pickett always gets shafted.

Where's the vision of the incident, I couldn't find it on the AFL SITE, plenty of others but not Marlions

He did the blind turn against GWS in the granny. Got the AFL really pissed off.
Then there was that goal.
Gill lost it and could be heard crying on the phone to Shocking.

That's Moore 3 seconds after the bump he is running back into play.
I thought he gets suspended if you cause injury to the player.
Moore looks all right to me.

Got to appeal. You'd have thought with the AFL's penchant for virtue signalling, they'd have let him off to play in Dreamtime.

Here are some images. Marlion doesn't get him in the head. He goes low. He does everything you would want. He identifies his teammate will get to the ball first. He decides to protect his teammate by bumping the opponent. The AFL do not like it because he hits like a sledgehammer. He does not appear to get him in the head. The guy got rocked. Its a contact sport.

Carlton got the the Young decision overturned, we must do the same.

This is the continuation of a theme with Marlion. It's nothing short of racismPickett 1.jpg Pickett 3.jpg

Can appeal on 2 fronts.

Medium impact down to Low and high contact down to no high contact

Looking at those images he looks to have pulled up on his run and more blocked. Could have absolutely gone right through Moore and put him into the third row if he wanted to
