Welcome to the Tigers Marlion Pickett!

[Tenacious]

Pickett will plug some holes given the long injury list but surely he won't be retained come season's end.

Exactly - if we’re to progress we‘ll need better players in the side than what Marlion is capable of offering

 

[TheCan]

Not sure why u guys are freaking he is a mature body strong runs all day
Today he took the petracca job and passed tbh
Jack graham for mine is the one we drop for a kid

 

[yo_eddy]

Also, he is willing to have a crack at any job he’s given. Back, wing, forward, relief ruck and now tagging mid.

yes there are mistakes but nobody works harder.

 

[Razorgang2]

If he is picked again , I'll microwave my membership. Please Richmond, just say enough is enough. I lost count of how many times, he had possession
waited for an option and then effed it up. I dont care that he has how many sons.? After that rant I'm going to bed.

 

[TigerForce]

Final season please.

Was anything said by Oliver to cause Marlion to react the way he did?

Probably not...he does these things fairly regularly. It's his big weakness.

Agree
He had a few issue with the ball at times but he severely limited Petracca, did an excellent job on him.
Petracca was not a big influence on the game and it was down to Marlion imo

The coach liked his game.

A few? Shirley you jest!. Not saying he lost us the game, but simple errors week in week out.

CAnt see why Graham escapes any criticism here .He has been so average these last 4 seasons and once again had yet another zero impact game tonight.Marlion offsrs us far more

 

[Rantnrave]

Plugs holes all over the place amd always has a crack.

Graham? Checkout the Graham thread he ain’t escaping nothing

 

[tigerdell]

Worked hard. Defensively he did a reasonable job. In attack we were super out of sync.
I'm happy to see a full tag each week and give our midfield a go

 

[Little Ziggyadee]

He gives away 10000 free kicks every week.
Every 2nd free kick Melbourne got tonight.
He was responsible.
Holding, tripping and he loves the high shots

 

[Leysy Days]

Clearly did his job on Petracca who only got off the leash late.

In our best 6 tonight.

Badly needed to get on top of the oppositions best mid - Steele, Yeo, Heeney, Butters, Cripps, Rowell etc have all torched us and been BOG this year.

Good move.

 

[AngryAnt]

If Yze wants a tagger going forward then Marlion is the guy.

 

[Merveille]

For those wanting him dropped it aint happening.
My best guess is his greatest critics are watching on TV because you don’t see the whole physical output and work rate as clearly

 

[Tigers of Old]

Agree that he tagged Petracca & tried his heart out. Could be a role there for the rest of the year.
May miss a week for the tummy tap on Oliver as that's frowned on now.
Jack Viney instantly regretted getting involved.
