Tyrone Vickery [merged]

[Hellenic Tiger]

Dropped too many marks last night. Looked real tentative going for them.
Could have had another 3 or 4 marks inside 50 with a little more care and less sloppiness.

That could have equated to another 4-6 goal game.

Needs to refocus .

Nought will put a banana like Firrito on him. Needs to not get sucked from him in otherwise he won't go near it and our forward line may struggle.

Give the guy a break in the wet for his size. l thought he went ok last night 

[mightytiges]

Shocker of a first half, granted the delivery and decision making inside our forward line was terrible. But good to see Ty not just give up because it got all too hard and that he persisted to the end to still contribute by kicking 3 goals.

[WA Tiger]

Went well, average first half granted but really came into in the second and he did it by the quicker delivery into the forward line and being one out, must be the same next week.

Sideshow Bob was back again.   


....let's hope he doesn't show up in the final.

[Yeahright]

Should've finished with 2. Any good forward would of saw the first one fly over their head for a goal instead of marking it.

Doesnt drop his head anymore, keeps at it for most of the game now

[WilliamPowell]

Cameo King was back with a vengeance last night

Have to say he certainly dropped his head a few times in the first half last night

[tony_montana]

No he didn't,

he kept trying all game and was well rewarded in the end

[WilliamPowell]

No he didn't,

he kept trying all game and was well rewarded in the end

Sorry from what I saw, there were a few times where when things went against him he stopped, propped and refused to chase, refused to give a 2nd effort, to me that's dropping your head

In the 2nd qtr in particular I can remember at least 3 or 4 occasions when he did that

2nd half he was better, didn't do it but in the first he certainly did

[Yeahright]

Is there any other "good" key forward who gets caught behind their opponent as much as Ty?

[Heart of Darkness]

Is there any other "good" key forward who gets caught behind their opponent as much as Ty?

Don't think so. Most "good" key forwards understand the merit of playing in front.

We're a good side at the moment and it is covering up the fact that Ty hasn't addressed his glaring deficiencies.

Former Richmond star Nathan Brown says North Melbourne should target Tyrone Vickery in Sunday's elimination final against the Tigers.

Brown said on Sports Today the big forward was crucial to Richmond's chances of getting the finals monkey off the back, but was still prone to taking his eye off the ball when ruffled.

"I think he (Vickery) is the glue up there at the moment," Brown explained on 3AW.

"Jack Riewoldt is playing great football and has really matured but Tyrone Vickery is the key to that forward line at the moment.

"If they can get under his guard… He can take his focus off.

"If I was the Kangaroos, I'd certainly be getting into Vickery."

Gee thanks Nathan, any other tips?

[YellowandBlackBlood]

Gee thanks Nathan, any other tips?

Surprised he hasn't sent a memo to the umps to keep an eye on Rance and Chaplin in case they tunnel the North forwards…..
