Looks like a gangbang, where is the bomber player
Probably true, but doesn't he have nice hands and see's the game so well. Needs to put on a couple of kg's with a big preseason and he could be a little Edwards like.The Pickett story at this stage is only a VFL one. He’s way off the pace at AFL level and serviceable at VFL. He still maybe not fully up to fitness and resembles a diesel tractor. Townsend looks faster and more mobile and I reckon he’s done at AFL. People saying he should replace Short and Ellis are being unrealistic as he doesn’t cover the ground or run create and release like the other two. Our BL is will be slower if he comes in for one of them , with really only Houli as the exit and then you either need a wingman or the other backman to assist.
I think he doesn’t impact games enough and win enough of his own ball and it would be ludicrous bringing him in for anybody with leg speed. His only hope is Graham or Caddy fall off a cliff as they’re his likely replacements., but I think he’s got Buckley’s there. I still have Ross ahead of him and by a long way. Nakkers for Balta only.
Yep, it’s true we haven’t seen him at the speed of afl he’s probably a bit faster than Mundy I reckon, but geez he had presence in the last quarter and a half and you could see Nank was trying to get the ball to him.The Pickett story at this stage is only a VFL one.

I think he has reasonable pace and glides over the ground. The space of AFL will suit him, those VFL games are played on ovals where even 30-40 years ago they were deemed small hence no wings, and the speed of the players now are far greater. Such a congested game especially in the first halves when the players are fresh.Yep, it’s true we haven’t seen him at the speed of afl he’s probably a bit faster than Mundy I reckon, but geez he had presence in the last quarter and a half and you could see Nank was trying to get the ball to him.
You could see it in a heaps of our boys they were bloody defiant and refused to accept losing.
I love that sh.t
Ahhh sitting on the pickett fence with that reply I see!I've got a feeling he either comes in this week, or we don't see him at senior level at all. At least this year.
he is very classy
that marks was literally nick riewoldt
way better footballer than ellis
What are your thoughts on him cracking the senior side next year TI? If we can get him up and running + stack next year is an amazing return for 2 players that cost us pretty much zero!The Pickett story at this stage is only a VFL one.

I wouldn’t call him slow as I can’t recall him being run down however I do agree that thinking he would immediately step up to pace of afl and understand our patterns is fanciful really, funnier things have happened but I’m more inclined to think the vfl final series will be invaluable then add a pre season and he really could press for a game earlyThe Pickett story at this stage is only a VFL one.

Be nice to see him Rag Doll Sam Walsh in the Carlton game!I wouldn’t call him slow as I can’t recall him being run down however I do agree that thinking he would immediately step up to pace of afl and understand our patterns is fanciful really, funnier things have happened but I’m more inclined to think the vfl final series will be invaluable then add a pre season and he really could press for a game early
I’m still uncertain atm on him bc I don’t know whether he’s running at 50-90% or if he’s at full fitness. ATM for a mature aged midfielder he just looks like a serviceable VFL player.What are your thoughts on him cracking the senior side next year TI?

Except serviceable VFL players don't have his class. Not saying he should be playing or anything, but a good preseason and he could be very handy next year.I’m still uncertain atm on him bc I don’t know whether he’s running at 50-90% or if he’s at full fitness.

No preseason this year so I think a month into next year will be the time we can make a realistic and honest call on him.

I heard people say he is slow but he isn’t, I watched th replay and he definitely has a burst of speed, has great skills but doesn’t look fit enough to me at this stage.
