Pickering

Does anyone any information about this player who is the son of ex Richmond/Melbourne player Michael Pickering.

I believe he is playing for one of the TAC clubs and with his Private School.

I understand that he has similar attributes to his Father but has more speed.

mm, i goto school with this kid, and played for fitzroy with him, he plays calder cannons, number 35, he gets games and coulda won best on ground last week, but got injured, he got 11 possessions in 1 quater and a half, and i think all the disposals were effective. great kid!

Public school thanks - mates with.

He is with Calder Cannons and has gone from an emergency to pretty much an automatic selection playing in various positions, and made it in the bests several times.

He is a genuine freak to be honest, great kick on both feet, big grab, pretty fast and good evasive skills. Kicked 6 goals last year to win the Grand Final for his Fitzroy team, with many in the last quarter.

It appears that he has similar attributes to his Father except he has speed.

Would RFC pick him up as a Father Son selection.

We hope so, but not 100% sure at the moment.
He needs to bulk up a little bit more, but due to Cannons program he is going to the gym a couple times a week now.
Cementing his spot in the Cannons team was important and he has so far.
