Tyrone Vickery [merged]

Watch his 6th goal vs the Pies.  Great work rate.

Broken clock is right twice a day.

Vickery only plays on his own terms. Mostly a very lazy footballer, terrible attitude. Same can be said of Conca and it's evident in how they king-hit Cox/Smith respectively. Shows how poor their attitude an commitment is on the field. No discipline. Selfish acts, not team orientated.

Should have stuffed them both off years ago. Unfortunately Conca is a Hardwick favourite and Vickery is getting enough cheap goals with a couple of well-earned here and there to justify his spot in a generally weak AF forward line.

Conca king hit Smith. Give me a break. Got a bridge here in NY I can sell you.

Agreed Ty needs to make the effort his norm. But some guys have effort and limited ability  (Gordon and Morris spring to mind) and some have ability and need to learn the effort level.  And yes he should know by now, but finally last year there were some signs of him getting it. With his ability if (possibly a big if) he gets the effort level right then we have a player. Hopefully 2016 will tell.

lol what would you call Conca's hit on Smith? It was pathetic

[yandb]

Obviously the tribunal didn't think is was a king hit as they only gave him two weeks.

[Petey]

Is that sarcasm?

Conca didn't knock Smith out, but it was a pathetic and cheap shot. His two weeks was considered a disgracefully weak punishment universally. And at the end of the day whether it was a king hit proper or not it still proves my point that he is selfish and doesn't do the team thing.

Go watch the Hawks game.  Interesting to see with Conca and Miles doing much of the inside grunt how much more time and space Trent had.  I don't buy the Conca selfish bit.  Stupid in his hit on Smith, no doubt.  Selfish no way.

Conca kicks on and finds a spot in the side

Corey Ellis and vlastuin are given proper mins in the guts

He's done it once ffs - people need to let that one go

I'm referring to the cheap shot itself as selfish. It cost the team, and was entirely a personal thing to do because he wanted to get his own back.

Yep, I said at the time of his inclusion for the EF that if he could replicate his Hawks game, we would be far better off.
Unfortunately wasn't quite fit enough IMO

[Petey]

If Cleve Hughes could replicate his game against Port Adelaide from 2008, he would be kicking 120 goals per season at AFL level. One swallow doesn't make an AFL footballer, unless you're one of Dimmas faves
