Welcome to the Tigers Marlion Pickett!

Guess that’s one confirmed change for next week.

 

[Tass]

Suggest we wait until we know the full extent of this. A lot of suppositions which is understandable. Would be incredibly disappointing if the worst was to eventuate.

 

[Razorgang2]

Yeah there is

Where?

 

[TigerForce]

This is through the summer. Strange they waited this long to come out with it.

 

[BT Tiger]

*smile* me, that's terrible news. Very much hoping that there's a mix up and it's not him, but I have a sinking feeling.

 

[MD Jazz]

The more I think about it the more I don’t believe it.

 

[King Kong]

FMD there goes our best F/S prospects in years. A tragedy if there is any truth to it for his family also

 

[kiwitiger]

Sad if true

BREAKING: Richmond has confirmed Marlion PIckett is in custody in Perth on alleged burglary charges. The alleged offences date back to December 2022 & January 2023.

This sounds like at least two break ins or more over the time.

 

[Dont Argue]

Needs to be given the benefit of the doubt.
Innocent until proven guilty and deserves the support of the entire RFC including us supporters.

 

[Coburgtiger]

Surely not.

He's got his family back, a career, and seems so centred.

I'd be amazed if this was any more than a bloke being profiled for his history.

Where?

Where?

Afl website. 7 news. Nine news. Tonight’s Carlton game broadcast.

 

[zgod]

Sad for his kids who obviously idolise their Dad.

OK, cheers.

 

[Parrott]

Sounds like the WA coppers have been waiting for him to come back so they could pinch him.

Correct

Afl website. 7 news. Nine news. Tonight’s Carlton game broadcast.

What’s weird is that there is nearly 6 months between the alleged offences and being charged. Highly unusual.

 

[Ripplestick]

Damn. Feel for his family.

Aggrevated burglary is a serious alleged charge.

 

[TigerForce]

What’s weird is that there is nearly 6 months between the alleged offences and being charged. Highly unusual.

Yep, why wait until we play there? Just hope no other player was involved.

Not at all, gathering evidence for prosecution and/or waiting for him to return to WA to lay charges to avoid trying an extradition.

Police would not publicise clearly. They have done their work compiled the evidence and made the arrest. They didn’t even need to let him play.
