Vickery wont waste my breath, Griff the dissapointing one for mine hes like jeckyll and hyde

No his not. There's only ever been one side to poor old battered griff and that's pathetic.

I would argue outside of his draft selection he has been worse than vickery.

Both are pathetic let's be honest here

Gus, as much as I have wanted to give Griff a go, it is now obvious, have to agree, both are not up to it.

Logically, if you are right, we have nothing to lose by dropping both and playing the kids. Elton, Chol etc etc couldnt do any worse.

Yep both have to go, the positive is we won't lose much if anything at all by never playing them again.

FFS, Blame the rest of the team before Ty....watch it, seriously.
what exactly did Ty do that puts him above critisism?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

He has WAT's stamp of approval Al, get with the program pal.

Thought his first half was ok (which is as much as you can hope for with Ty). Second half was as bad as you will see from an an AFL footballer. Reckon his body language might mean this is the week he'll finally get dropped.

Agree with most of the comments above that we can now be pretty certain at this stage of their careers that Vickery and Griff will never be consistent AFL standard key forwards.

Tiger selectors got it very wrong going into a game where the conditions didn't suit tall players. Was never going to win this game & l don't think Richmond wanted too.

Tyrone did more than Griffiths & people expect these 200cm players to perform in a blizzard get real

Loved it when he abused Lloyd for selling him into trouble.....after he called for the ball....

Both were poor last night. In fairness to Griff, he does not have the luxury of just playing forward. He is expected to ruck too and did so for a fair part of the game. He is also instructed to palm the ball down to our players when he think he may not mark it and has been doing that too much for my liking. Griff also don't berate team mates which Ty seems to do all the time and that must not be good for team harmony.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

Effort is the key word, particularily in those conditions. You want the big blokes to contest and bring the ball to ground.

Even when this did happen, Lloyd was the only bloke close to causing headaches for the opposition, though

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,

You are correct. Both were poor last night. But at least Griff chases and tackles which is so lacking in our side. Vickery wouldn't even know what chasing was. For me Vickery must go end of season. I would argue Griff should stay but this is the Vickery thread.
