Thought it was poor he was the sub

But gee it was the best half of footy he's played for a while

Well done Marlion and all the best

I would give him another year to mentor the kids , I’d move others on before him, maybe as a rookie?

Could've at least had another half season then packed it in before the MSD....would've been a nice full circle moment...fmd just 9 games short......you can  goddamn guarantee at least one his lads will be a superstar now..... :banghead

Yep now that he's retired one of his kids will be the next Kosi and will probably end up in Fremantle by NGA

Good call IMO. He hasn't been playing well for two years and you don't feed games into a guy 30+ in the hope his kids are amazing footballers in 20 years. We've gotta plan for 2025 and beyond. 9 games into him next year is 9 games taken off a kid

Was a good servant though and a great effort to play 90 games as a MSD pick

His oldest is 13 and youngest is 6 so it'll be as soon as 5 years and 12 years at the latest before they're eligible for the draft... :shh

Yep.

Not to mention the Pickett family clearly has sensational athletic genes similar to the Rioli family.

Maybe the decision what taken out of everyone's hands, his lawyers could have easily said " Marlion the way things stand you are def going on a little holiday, its just a matter of how long " so the guy retired
