Tyrone Vickery [merged]

[eliminator]

Tiger selectors got it very wrong going into a game where the conditions didn't suit tall players. Was never going to win this game & l don't think Richmond wanted too.

Tyrone did more than Griffiths & people expect these 200cm players to perform in a blizzard get real

Both were poor last night. In fairness to Griff, he does not have the luxury of just playing forward. He is expected to ruck too and did so for a fair part of the game. He is also instructed to palm the ball down to our players when he think he may not mark it and has been doing that too much for my liking. Griff also don't berate team mates which Ty seems to do all the time and that must not be good for team harmony.

Agree. Whilst it was not a night for tall players because of the conditions Vickery dropped some critical marks which if he had taken would have stemmed the tide.

From Jon Ralph's "dislikes" column:

1. TYRONE VICKERY

He might have knocked You-Know-Who off the podium as the league’s chief finger-pointer and arm-waver.

The Tigers free agent was at it again on Thursday night when ignored on a short hit-up lead, furiously berating his midfield for ignoring him.

Seconds later he failed to fly for a pack mark when he just had to go leaving Port Adelaide skipper Travis Boak to mark uncontested.

On the next Richmond entry Vickery was ignored again for Jack Riewoldt, who actually helps his teammates by leading at the ball carrier.

Up went the arms again in furious disagreement as Ty went off like a two-bob watch.

For the record, he had five kicks and two tackles for the game.

He is far from Richmond’s only issue, but once again he failed to make life easier for his half backs and midfielders by presenting a consistent, reliable leading target.

Richmond seems to be slowly moving towards a new contract but a potential second-round compensation pick might have the Tigers thinking twice about letting him go.

even taking into account the difference in opportunities, compare his game to Rances.

Yeah OK Rance is probably approaching freak status, but surely they still played in the same conditions, yet their games were poles apart.

Reckon the goalpost showed more ticker than Ty - especially after qtr time

Vickery was putrid on Friday but so was the forward 50 entries and the forward set up. I just don't understand why we have to constantly hanball backwards to a player under pressure who has to rush the kick. Are we really just that stupid?

I get the feeling they are playing to Harwick's instructions. Move it quickly and play on quickly. It just isn't working because we keep running into trouble and rushing the kicks inside 50.
