Hope thats okay.Seriously though Marlion was one of the better H/B going around in the WAFL when we drafted him. Yes he also played a little bit thru the mids.I always wonder what we would have had if we played him as a hb. At Richmond it seems we create problems by not playing blokes in their best roles.Quote from: Hard Roar Tiger on March 21, 2023, 05:11:53 PMI don’t know what he says but they all crap themselves when he comes thundering in to spoil. Remember Hill when we smashed the Saints a couple of years ago?Ha Brad Hill the most overrated player in the AFL soft as butter and teams are supposed to live with that because he is so freakin skilled. He is a panic merchant a fumbler and his skills are the most overrated of any player in the comp.I think he wins a lot of contested ball and is often kicking under pressure, in traffic or when being tackled etc which might skew his DE negatively, but when he's kicking freely I think he's a beautiful kick.As for HBF, well you've described it as being easy to look good for less physical players like Short, Houli and Ellis etc. I reckon Pickett is a great contest player and we'll suited to wing or midfield agree on that last point there. Heck I thought he did ok in the ruck ffs.Andy ive gone on about Hill for years even under no pressure he stuffs up disposal big time. He does not know what a contested possesion is never lays a tackle as a winger or outdside player on the fringe he just does not end up with clearances. Hwe poos his pants when he hears players close by. Imo an absolute horrid player not worth two bob.

This fella has had a tremendous start to the season. Been absolutely brilliant on the wing again but personally I'd like to see him promoted a little to midfield duties. Just an awesome footballer. #MarlionPicketthttps://twitter.com/Tigers_of_Old/status/1645628950272704512Thoughts?
