100 games for F/S...And Pickett already has sons!

 

[Jack5]

Pretty sure they have multiple jumpers they wear on gameday
The ones in the auctions will be player issue but not necessarily the one they had on for most of the match

Auction website says Pickett's jumper is "matchworn". Maybe there is more than one?

For some other players it describes the item as "player edition".

Marlion Pickett was seemingly effortless in Richmond’s grand final win, but behind the scenes he has had to compete like hell for everything he has got

I read that title as "Pickett picks his way into AFL"

I posted this in the GF preview thread

Here’s a transcript of a conversation with my wife over the Pickett selection. Keep in mind my wife knows as much about footy than my big toe with an ingrown toe nail.
TI: Hey darl Tigers are playing a first gamer in the Granny on Saturday. ( meticulously sipping on a JP Chanet red lubricating tonsils and larynx before Blues night).
Wife: I’m busy and who cares as he must be good if they picked him. ( stressfully looking down into a pan with enough smoke coming out of it to attract the climate control protesters).
TI: Aaaahhh it’s not that simple gorgeous. ( taking another sip , but a lot slower)
Wife: Nothings ever simple for you and as if anyone would pick somebody if he wasn’t good.
TI: Yeah I understand that , but he wasn’t even on our list six months ago. ( Looking at her glass to see if it was actually water she was drinking)
Wife: Well what does that tell you then ? Obviously he is good.
TI: That’s a good way of putting it and I guess you’re right . ( Slowly squirming out of my chair pretending I needed to visit the smallest room in the house).

I think I just watched this for 5 minutes.
Time stood still.....

 

[TigerMoz1973]

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

George is a better player now than he was in 2017. Numbers have nothing to do with it... if Marlion wants a lower number then he will have the opportunity to take it. It won't change the way he plays one little bit

 

[TigerMoz1973]

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.

Won't be a full house. Only 85k .... he might as well just retire now as it's all downhill from here
