Tyrone Vickery [merged]

[Diocletian]

i actually think he can play. Whilst he hasn't performed  it under dimwit who actually has??

get rid of dimwit and some might learn to play the game consistently.

The club must see something in Ben mache griffiths that i dont.

Club believes he has a tank and thus can play ruck/forward. Feels that Ty has no tank whatsoever and thus is a limited player - limited to just the forward line.

Also that he can actually ruck.....


.....well sort of.....




.....ok, he's slightly less crap than Vickery is at it.....






...actually I don't really know why we're keeping him either.....

He's been gifted too many games and never really had to earn his spot.

something many seem to want to see with some other players as well, as if their perceived natural talent will prevent the same thing from happing again.

Ty may have played last game for Richmond at any level

FREE agent Ty Vickery may have played his last game for Richmond at any level, with the tall forward in doubt for Saturday's VFL game with a hand injury.

Vickery played in a glove to protect his injured left hand against Geelong back in round 21 and it is understood the problem was aggravated in the VFL last weekend.

While coach Damien Hardwick has repeatedly stated Vickery is an important part of the Tigers' future, the club is yet to come to terms with the 26-year-old while players around him are re-signed.

A restricted free agent in the upcoming NAB AFL Trade Period, it is possible the Tigers have seen the last of Vickery if he is withdrawn from the VFL squad on Saturday.

"He's got a bit of a sore hand at the moment, so we're not even sure if he's going to play tomorrow," Hardwick said as the Tigers flew out of Melbourne on Friday.

When pressed on Vickery's future, Hardwick again stated his commitment to keeping the 200cm goalkicker.

"Ty's a quality guy. He's an important part of our future. He's kicked close to 30 goals this year and has consistently over the course of his career," the coach said.

"As far as we're concerned he's part of us."

"Ty"s a quality guy"

  Really? This poo again?

Time for a new PR line. We figured this 'great guy =great player' rubbish years ago.

The same guy who wont push himself off season to develop stamina beyond a pub smoker?

poo guy and poo player. The fact that dimma cpnsistantly peddles this crap makes me question whether he is actually acting on behalf of the other 17 clubs

oh look....

BT claiming the word is Vickery will get a 3-year deal at Hawthorn.

We'll probably get end if second rd compo pick 37

[Francois Jackson]

pick 37!! the sweet spot for our man Francois Hackson.

if we are truly serious we would get rid of Griffiths too. That bloke IMO is even worse than Vickery.

Griff better than Ty IMO

Softo Griffo.  Forgot about him.  Should get an extension soon.

There was an article I read last year which talked about the primary factor of what pick is received being the amount of contract money offered by the go to club.

If it is comparatively in the top 5% of what players over 25 years of age earn,  it's a first round pick. 5-15% is end of first round.
15-25% is second round
25-35% is end of second round.

Point is, if Hawthorn offer a low to moderate amount to Vickery and Richmond don't match it then we are looking at a pick later than people expect.

There is also a points system but as I understand these days it has lesser influence on the decision.

lets face it, a pick of any sort is a bonus for this clown

True, although I'm hoping to God for a second round pick as it starts to open up options for us to pillage the expansion clubs.
