News Scott Lycett signs with Port Districts

[Long live PAFC]

I think he'll come back in Kenny loves him.

I thought there was friction between the two?

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Gibbs agreed with Hayes, expecting Port Adelaide to come back strong from a somewhat underwhelming 2022.

“To have Scotty back in, his ruck craft is unbelievable, he’ll give this new, young, exciting midfield a lot of first looks at the ball around the stoppages, he’s going to help this team jump significantly in 2023,” he said.

“He’ll be a massive inclusion, Scotty Lycett, there’s no doubt about that.”

They have, they just get neuralyzer'ed after every loss.

His ruck craft is unbelievable.. this is actually true just not in the way Bryce thinks.

 

[El_Scorcho]

His ruck craft is good compared to just not playing a ruckman at all. Baffling comment otherwise.

 

[PatientMental]

Is bryce getting Lycett mixed up with an actually good ruckman?

 

[TazD]

Actually like people hyping us up. Hopefully the talking heads remember their praise when we're struggling to make the 8.

When Hartlett was our medical sub against Gold Coast midway through last year, all the talk was how well we must be travelling if Hartlett can only get in as the medical sub when the fact was he was horribly out of form and his career was all but finished.

Reminds me of circa 2018 with opposition fans offering advice such as, “Kenny is too attacking. He needs to develop a defensive side”, as we were being served up some of the most mindnumbingly dour and futile footy this side of Ross Lyon and Paul Roos.

I once had someone say to me that we should definitely beat West Coast at Adelaide Oval because of the home ground advantage….

And they are supposed to be professional

I don't think they do, I remember Tom Jonas getting a huge wrap from Brereton (ok it was Dermie so some excuse for that) in a game some years back when his form had been on the ordinary side of very ordinary for about a month, and he was dropped to the SANFL not long after.

It's probably a lack of interest as much as a lack of knowledge, but he isn't the only Vic based `expert' who continually overlook the form slumps of interstate based players.

The fact that in the 5 games he played before being injured he got absolutely humiliated by every ruckman he came up against..

[Doctor Feel]

That's what the 'light show' at AO is

[Expat power]

Ugh, why would you not only put yourself through listening to that podcast but then inflict it on us?

 

[bomberclifford]

Jesus.

 

[JimmyBC]

Jesus.

That's enough to be behind Hayes in the ruck queue

 

[Ralph Lorenz]

I think Scotty is just a big angry man at the end of the day. He'd do the same for port now that he's with us. It's just aggression masked as allegiance.

 

[TeeKray]

I thought it was pretty funny. Bit bogan and unprofessional but still better than what most players do which is sit on their phones in the stands looking like they don't care.

A Port product dutching up his own is a bit odd though isn't it?

He was a West Coast player at the time. Lighten up.

No. I can't imagine Brad Ebert doing it.
