I can't see anything different?
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Rhett Bartlett has posted footage on his twitter account of Vickery and an incident they believed concussed him. It looks like friendly fire with a shoulder from of his team mates collecting in the side of his head. Footage is not greatest quality but looks convincing all the same.

I found the impact that caused Ty Vickery's concussion.

The Tigers aren't sure when he was injured but suspect it may have happened before the game.

"We heard that he might have got a knock in the warm-up. There's no vision of that to show if it did happen," Richmond stand-in coach Brendon Lade said.

"Ty's been in at the club all week. The doctors sent him off for some tests. He's fine at the moment.

"He'll have a week off ... and be ready to go the week after hopefully."

Vickery trained on Thursday but avoided contact drills. He completed light exercises on the boundary before the session began.

I reckon Vickery got his concussion at 17min 27sec mark. He collides with Nathan Broad. 3mins later- off the ground

Good get by Rhett. The main thing is TV is okay.

The first vision of Ty being totally obvious to where the ball really was, reminded me a bit of that scene from The Club, although the reasons for Geoff Hayward's state of mind were very different to Ty's lol.

you sure about that?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Even when non-concussed, Ty is just naturally a different cat :yep. We just need him onfield to produce consistently the form of his last 6 weeks of 2015.

Typical Vickery jumping at shadows LOL or did he just faint from fright hhhhaaaaarrrrrrgggghhhhhhh.He doesnt want to get too close to a contest the breeze may knock him over hhhhaaaaarrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhh.
In all seriousness i have a bit of sympathy for him in this. Sometimes it only takes a small knock in the right spot to make you go ga ga.Still its freakin funny.

TV isn't Wayne Carey but the sad thing is he is our second best KPF.
And without many other forwards that contribute to the scoreboard consistently we need him fit and healthy.

Interesting no one has mentiomed his team mate who when Ty collapsed on the ground looked down at him and then walked away  :o

I noticed it and was going to mention that he should be the target of the criticism not Ty.

Was also going to mention that yellowandblackblood made a comment about Shane tuck being knocked out in a boxing match and was vilified by some yet it seems ok to bag Ty.

Yep fair call.

Understand Ty polarises opinion, I'm one of his biggest critics. But to be critical or ridicule Ty for thie is poor form IMHO

As for his team mate hope he's been read the riot act, it was poor, really poor
