Love this bloke for his hardness. Really believe we have it wrong with the roles Marlion and Short do.One is naturally pyhsical and one is not, yet we play em both in opposite roles.
Thought Marlion really good and Short struggled with the Physicality of it all in his role.

I've been watching Pickett closely for a while, and my comments are a bit outlandish, but I find it hard not to form the opinion that Pickett is targeted by the AFL and umpires.

Shorty laid 8 tackles and Pickett laid …. zero.

And we don’t have a mid in the top 15  :help

I wonder which players we have already in the works in the next few seasons? You’d think team list management would be sorting this out by now.

Short, Bolton, Baker, Graham are the core of our developing midfield for the next few seasons. Add back-up in Ross and Sonsie. Don't think RCD will make it, and not sure about Clarke, Brown, Banks as mids yet. So I think we probably need to trade/draft another couple. I think Ross is worth persevering with as an inside mid — just 21 and coming into that 40-50 game stage where he should start to look and feel comfortable at the level.

So how does that make him hard. Being the hunter is easy its putting your over the ball and winning it its accepting contact and making sure it goes to someone not panicking and just slamming it on the boot.
He had a career high tackle count because he was intimidated and second to the ball so much.

Short and hardness in the one sentence sheesh some have it wrong. For hardness give me Brandon Ellis back thats where Short is at.

Sheesh our centreman  laid 8 tackles but had just 2 contested possesions i think a blind man can see what is wrong here.

Always liked him but tbh I never thought he had THIS MUCH upside. Games like today make him one of the better wings in the league in current form.

Aerial skills and balls are big and amazing.
