Rising Richmond star Tyrone Vickery signs two-year contract extension
Michael Warner
From: Herald Sun
March 24, 2012
RISING Richmond star Tyrone Vickery has signed a two-year contract extension.
Vickery, 21, has committed to the Tigers until the end of 2014 in the latest dose of good news for the club.
"We are thrilled to have Ty continue with Richmond for at least another two years," Tigers football manager Craig Cameron said last night.
"He has become a very important player in our team, and we consider him one of our up-and-coming leaders.
"At 21 years of age, we look forward to seeing Ty continue to develop into a long-term player for the Tigers."
Richmond has already extended coach Damien Hardwick's contract for another two years and is confident midfielder Brett Deledio will soon commit.
Essendon young gun Michael Hurley penned a long-term deal with the Bombers on Thursday, leaving Collingwood's Travis Cloke as the biggest key forward left on the Greater Western Sydney shopping list.
The cashed-up Giants have one more year to lure uncontracted stars.

This is very good news IMHO

This is very good news IMHO
Yep, great stuff, Deledio to sign Monday or Tuesday..... :thumbsup
-
I still think he will be our No1 Ruck (resting forward) in a couple of years. Until then I'm quite happy for him to dob 30-40 goals per season predominately as a forward.
-
tremendous signing, with JR8 and vickers as key targets, whoa, premierships here we come :clapping
-
Vickery >>>> Hurley :D
-
Great news about our young guns signing on. Great future for them and the RFC.
-
Here's the official confirmation on the RFC website

Vickery >>>> Hurley :D
i totally agree and honestly have no idea what all the hype about hurley is!!!!! he really has shown sweet f a.
at his age richo, buddy both riewoldts, carey etc showed plenty and compared to them at the same age all that hurley has done is punch the f out of a taxi driver
but all of a sudden journos commentators coaches etc talk about great of a player he is and a great sensotive big hearted person!!!!! tell the taxi driver that lol
i hope hurley is a huge flop, ffs even juricha showed more than him
-
Deledio next ... :pray
-
Hurley is a gun, leave him the eff out of Vickery discussions you insecure little freaks

You must be kidding.
Hurley being compared to Jurica. Heard it all now.
Jurica managed to play a whopping 18 games and kick an amazing 25 goals in his career.
I'd love Hurley at Richmond, simple as that. No if, no but, no maybe. Would just love him at Tigerland.
And here is a kid that has knocked back a contract with GWS that would have been worth a squillion to stay loyal to his club and you "hope he is a huge flop".
Nice

well said Damo

Turn it up boys. :lol :rollin :lol
Hurley > Gumbleton

Lucky for us Vickery doesn't carry the hype, or the 5 year contract but I wouldn't swap them.

Hurley started his career with a bang which was incredible for a KPP, he's not as polished as reports would have you believe, he doesn't destroy games with multiple big marks and big goals, but he has serious presence. Tbh not sure how much better he is now than he was in his first season when he was swinging from CHB to CHF like a 200 gamer, like Fyfe, Gibbs, Rioli and co, his hype carries him through games, I've seen him have 10 touch games with little influence yet the one big moment is all you hear about.
Viceroy on the other hand is flying under the radar but is improving in leaps and bounds, if he continues improving and kicks another 35-40 goals this year and rucks a little bit more he'll be every bit as valuable as any young KPP in the game
-
When you are hyped up anything you do is amplified 100%.
Nobody remembers him slapping about a cabbie and being racist towards him now but everyone
"who matters" in the media remembers his x goal in x game and how he attacked the ball and dished it off at the right time. The type of garbage Gerard Healy would over analyse.
I'm not denying he is good but if he didn't play for Essendon would he be "that good". :shh
I think not.
-
If he played for Richmond you'd think he was better than any other forward we have bar Jack. The bloke is a gun ffs
-
Lets get real for a sec. Wtf has Hurley done til now.... Sweet stuff all. Some say he shows presence.. Ffs
Martin jack buddy show presence.... Hurley is all hype ATM nothing more nothing less. Remember plapp he showed presence also when he started lol .. Hurley is all hype
-
You're comparing Hurley to Plappy? Seriously?
stuff me dead what a bunch of knob jockeys
-

No disputing Hurley is a good player.
Where I have Vickery ahead currently is his ability to ruck as well as being every bit as dangerous up forward as Hurley.
In the current climate, I see Vickery as more valuable.

If he played for us he would be the general of our back line ;) and a handy one at that :cheers

Where I have Hurley ahead is he can play the two most important positions on the ground
Vicks could become the better player if he actually becomes a gun ruck, but at the moment he's not, and he doesn't get as much of the ball as Hurley or take as many marks
-
Once again. You have all shown how you have all been bluffed. If he played for Richmond he may not even touch the ball. Hurley til now has shown nothing and is all bluff and potential
-
Two different players. Hurley is a switch key defender/forward whereas Vickery is a switch key forward/ruckman. Hurley gets more of the ball and takes more marks but their averaging the same goal wise. Vickery of course has a hitouts stat which Hurley doesn't have.

Vickery has had a quiet-ish preseason. Not ordinary but nothing outstanding either. Hopefully with the Blues weakened and short backline this week TV can punish Carlton whose focus will be mainly on containing Jack.
-
Hurley has had a few good games, but his attack on the ball is ferocious for a forward. He'll be ok.
-
He has shown sweet fa ..
-
Vickery? Or the bloke who's kicked more goals?

NFI some of you blokes

I agree with this, Hurley ahead now - Vickery closed the gap last season, if he backs it up and takes another step and like you said becomes more valuable in the ruck, then he'll be every bit as important a player as Hurley if not more so

hurley is not ahead of vickery , thats bs, vickery has shown more and has had to play ruck also. is much tallker and his body still developing.
hurley is been judged on his potential but not on what he has achieved, hurley overrated and the bombers will regret not cashing in on him

I hear now GWS are chasing Vickery

Of course not, but some can improve at a greater capacity than others, vicks improved more than Hurley last season, granted he's coming from further back, but he came on heaps, needs to back it up though

Harsh, Hurley is a gun young KPP, I just feel he gets over rated at times when not warranted like a few other youngsters, but his best is exceptional.... apart from last season, Vicks has been very raw and barely had an impact which is not a criticism just reality with a young ruckman
-
Let's not forget that 'username:' is the bloke that said Tambling was a required player at Richmond and that Dimma thought he was a gun and had a role set out for him.
-
someone needs a life
-
someone needs a life
And quite clearly it's the bloke that thinks Tambling's a legend and Hurley is poo that needs a life. Actually, a mental home would be the place for someone like that. Maybe some growth hormones would be handy too :thumbsup
Kind regards,
The Coach
-
Very happy with Vickery; he just needs to continue to improve on 2011
But ....
Hurley is a very good young KPP player
If we could get him would I want the Tigers to go after him = absolutely
He would easily solve part of the problem we have with KPP backmen. IMHO Hurley is a better defender than forward

Maybe but he's been very clear that he wants to play predominantly as a forward.
Currently I have Tyrone just ahead in terms of overall output. This year will tell us a lot more about how good Hurley is as a footballer.

First of all, I have reported this post. That is no way to speak to a site moderator. Secondly, who are you to talk about ridiculous things, little weeman? "Richie is playing well you all just cant see it!!!! Dimmma has a role set out for him, Dimma knows!!!!!" One week later and Tambling is playing his RFC career out at Coburg and is traded to a poo club in trade week
