Player Watch #50 Marlion Pickett

[evo]

It just goes to show what a great system we currently have at Richmond.

A mature age player has come from the other side of the country and a lower level, yet can immediately slot into playing 'the Richmond way' on the biggest stage.

That moment when dusty passed it to him
And then the goal is something ill never forget
The crowd knew it was a magical moment
Im wrapt i was there to see it , it really was
A beautiful moment.

How long till the afl implements rule changes so we can’t recruit a mature age gun again. Chris sook will be going off

All that and he only played 66% game time. Imagine what he would have done at 86% that’s what dusty had

When I heard he was debuting in a grand final I was very sceptical about the decision making behind the scenes but * me what a game. First game, a premiership medal and almost a norm smith * me.

Kudos to the club for doing their homework correctly, kudos to Dusty for housing him, kudos to the match committee for selecting him and obviously congratulations to Marlion himself.........just another good chapter in Tiger history.

I hope he keeps number 50. Dropping down to a smaller number isn’t good. See butler and castagna. Tho George is still s valuable player

 

[THE THIN MAN]

Thought it was a huge risk but delightfully happy to be proven wrong


Cant wait for his bag of tricks come 2020

lol pickett's avarage crowd played in front of is 100,014

 

[tony__montana]

Was clean at VFL level, clean at afl level(on the biggest occasion mind you) - the difference being when youre surrounded by quality players who run and spread to create space thats what can happen. Looked every bit a 100 game jet. Wowee we're in for an exciting 4-5 years with this guy

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

No odds yet.
But might put money for the Brownlow.
He's that type of a player.

 

[WATiger86]

Still can’t believe we debuted him the the grandy and he chopped up

 

[Calcium Man]

It just hit me, this guy had 22 touches, 8 contested, 3 clearances, 1 goal, 8 i50s and 9 score involvements, in a granny, and he is about to have his first AFL level pre-season. He will be a jet!

 

[Vassp]

the guy had so much polish in the twos, just needed to settle in and gee l thought he would play well but nobody expected this.

So exciting...wait till Marlion has a full AFL pre-season under his belt with us! Marlion and Stacky and Sheds...

 

[Muddiemoose]

Watching the reply now...

The 2nd qtr has him everywhere and part of every major play for us

Amazing player

 

[1980GFVideo]

Hopefully his time out of the game can extend his career a bit.

Full house at MCG Round 1 against Carlton might be a bit low key for him. Hope he can generate some enthusiasm for it.

hate that i have to wait half a year to see it.

 

[THE_GUN]

Nek minute : Freo / Eagles want him home

Apologies if it’s in here already.

50 facts about Marlion Pickett

He played his first AFL game in Richmond’s emphatic Grand Final win and almost pipped Dustin Martin for best-on-ground honours, but there’s still a lot you might not know about Marlion Pickett.

[OhhDeledio]

just listened to his interview after the game on 3aw

"I'll finish up at Richmond. Doesn't matter what other clubs offered me, gonna give it back to Richmond because they took the punt on me and it worked. Just going to be loyal to them"

******* oath
