Tyrone Vickery [merged]

[Yeahright]

Didn't a few ppl say Ty was soft and scared

so what are you  saying here. hes not scared because he got into a bit of jumper pulling and punching. mate even hayden ballantyne does that.
lets see how he goes the first time he gets a knee in the ribs in a ruck contest we will see if hes toughened up then wont we.
he has often squibbed out in these sort of circumstances.

some peoples idea of tough is really unbelievable.

I have actually never seen him squib a contest...

How about instead of playing paper teams you watch a few games

[Judge Roughneck]

You reckon sir Alex Ferguson or mark Taylor  wouldn't do the odd paper team?

lol seems im the only one watching how you can miss him squibbing is beyond me.
oh dear i see hes one of your favorites and he cant possibly have squibbed. you certainly wouldnt see it with those blinkers on eh.

[Yeahright]

Show some proof and maybe we'll believe you

[gerkin greg]

Can't say I've seen Vicks squib it

Maybe he did early like most kids have but I missed it, that's forgiveable though

i must be the only one who was not impressed with vickery. he didnt actually do a lot. he doesnt do the things you need a chf to do.

Yeh I was dirty he didn't kick 10 goals and dominate, I was thinking of cutting him some slack due to his time out but your right eff that let's bag the useless slob

im not surprised youd expect 10 goals from him 
when i bag him i will call him a useless slob. 
atm all ive said is he didnt do a lot and hes getting a lot of kudos.  we are sensitive if thats a bagging.id hate to see what happens when he actually manages to play a decent game it will be like the second coming i reckon.

Its obvious you werent at the game and rarely attend any richmond games.  TV lead and positioned really well and if it wasnt for several kicks aimed at his ankles he'd have kicked his share.

i agree he's not a number 1 ruck he is a forward and part time ruck..  you've just got to get over it "finger nail"

[Tigers of Old]

For a guy who had major shoulder surgery last season I thought he took a real step forward.
Wasn't outstanding but was heavily involved and certainly a lot more than he was when he was struggling last year.
Needs touch, that will come with game time.
Nothing to worry about yet.

Vickery is not a squib. Last year against GWS at Manuka he flew for a mark knowing he was heading directly into the point post. He only had eyes for the ball and took a great grab.
Sorry but the squib rumour is completely without basis.

I don't think he's a squib but I reckon there are times where Hardwick would be annoyed he didn't go harder. He always seems keen for a scrap but I dunno why, he never throws any and he never will because he will get suspended for it. Save the aggression for attacking the contest as hard as you can and try to hurt any bloke who sits in the hole. Between Riewoldt & Vickery we really do lack a big man up forward to split packs and to seriously hurt blokes. Maybe that's why McGuane is still around

Some people reckon Vickery plays with 'mongrel'. Playing with mongrel isn't having a pointless scrap when the ball is a 100 metres away. He's definitely not a squib but I think I see where theclaw is coming from

Point posts don't move and they don't have knees Cleve Hughes took a courageous grab once. But yeah, Vickery isn't scared.

[gerkin greg]

Split a pack and just about knocked Roo and Chip out the other night 

Wasn't the best decision but he can do it, more of it please

[Judge Roughneck]

I don't think we lack a.3rd.tall.forward

Griff
Astbury
Elton

Plus Mcbean/onhanlon/Edwardsaaron/pettard

McIntosh I'm sure would make a go of it.

Mcgaune should move to coburg.

Griff

Think you better get used to seeing big Ben primarily as a tall defender.

[Judge Roughneck]

My best 22 includes France, grimes, Chaplin.

That is large backline if Grifs does not play forward
