Hi all,
Very keen to get thoughts on where we see the future of Mr vickery heading.
Is this make or break season for him. Sure he was injured this year but he is yet to reach the heights of what we expected when we drafted him so early.
west coasts lynch is on the market and would be cheap 300-350K a year would we consider taking him he is big strong and can kick 60-70meters as well as ruck.
hopefully vickers is hitting the gym right at this moment cause if he is going to play key position he needs to step up in 2013
GO U TIGERS
-
He hasn't been on the list long enough to make the call IMO, 2 more years at least, we have given others longer and they still haven't reached any great expectations.
He will be ok provided he has a decent preseason free from injury and he backs himself in with the support of his team mates.
Could be the suprise forward/ruck of the comp next year..
-
Vickery stepped up in 2011 and was cut down with injury last year. We have all seen what he can achieve when he is fully fit so fingers crossed he can stay fit and get back to his 2011 for and beyond! I would rather persevere with Vick's than go down the Lynch path.
-
Ridiculous thread.
I think we all saw what he was capable of last season when fit.
Hopefully recovers from his shoulder surgery.
-
Get's a years break for me. Want him to produce more than he did in 2012, but don't expect as much as 2011 as he gets back into form
-

Won't be a surprise to me.

I am talking surprsie "of the comp" as in how Maric was this year....that would be a massive leap and don't tell me that wouldn't surprise you.
-
Vickewho?
-
Vickery will prove his doubters wrong
Especially the pricks that layed into him this year when it was clear he was under an injury cloud..
Haters beware, vickery will transform like a rabid werewolf
Hands like steel traps, teeth like razors :shh

Agree with all that WAT.
-
By 2014 he all still v young for a ruckman size playet
-
no
-
2014-15 will be his make or break years!

RFC use the term "Make or Break" a stuff of a lot,thing
is,they never really make it or for that matter,break it.

vickery deserved every criticism he copped this yr. no one layed into him at all just asked for him to be dropped from the team as his form was deplorable.
as for the thread all he needs to do is improve especially in areas he is poor at.a 200cm 5th yr player time to start rounding the game out id say.
some aggression at the man and the ball and in ruck contests would be a good start. more contested marks would be great as well. more second efforts as well. another 7 or 10 kg would not go astray either. its this last that should give him the confidence to be more physical.
he needs to do much more off the ball his work rate at times is lousy.
kicking a few goals doesnt make you a good footballer or earn you accolades just ask jr.
big ivan is screaming out for someone to help him out this bloke needs to put his hand up as second ruckman his efforts in the ruck have been mostly insipid i never want to see that scared look on his face and watch him pull out again.

I rather Tyrone pull out than Graham fall over his own feet

Spot on. He is as girly as Post. Lets hope he has been doing some running over the last six months so he can actually get to some contests.

lol you think thats mongrel. i couldnt fight my way out of wet paper bag yet id never run away from a few girlie jumper punches. theres nothing tough in what we see there.theres nothing brave when you know you cant be hit. its when you know its coming that determines just how tough you are. do you just cop it or do you pull out like jane vickery does.
-
I have seen enough of Ty to know hes one tuff nut.
-
Ryder = inverted nub
-
:whistle Some tough guys on these boards.
He's no softie. Vickery took a lot of contested marks in 2011 and always goes when it's his turn.
No doubt was protecting that wounded shoulder a little this year but he was out there.
Not much soft about that.

More mongrel than Post has ever shown.

Vickery is Ace!! (Haven't used that expression since 1980 but like YoYo's its due for a revival) Never afraid of a contest and IMO is very disciplined and doesn't give away too many stupid free kicks.

Thats classic. Vickery wrestling with someone half his size like a girl and losing. That proves how tough he is? How about when the other ruckman is running at him at the centre bounce and he avoids the contest. Vickery is the ultimate girly man.

You mean ruckman half his size like Ryder? :lol :rollin

Like to see you say it to his face tough guy.

This quote is based on a logic that I just cannot fathom. I've done extensive Google and Wiki searches and I just can't seem to find anything to support this form of logic at all. Oh hang on, I forgot to do a Disney and Nickelodeon search.....

Vickery 4cm taller, and weighs 2kg less. Would call it pretty even, not the fight though Vickery looks to be quite comfortable

Can see where Vickery dislocates his shoulder @1.11 in round 23 (2011) against Adelaide.
Then comes back on the ground and takes a strong contested mark.
But yeah he's a softy. :P

x 2
still young, still big, another preseason, showed stacks when fit & complimented Jack well...worth persisting with at least for no other reason than he was a joy to watch punch Paddy Ryder :)
def crossing fingers that surgery was successful - anyone heard any reports re that?

agree with above, his tough
Graham, Browne and Post thus far, Now thats soft
Browne is one of the toughest bastards to have played. Not scared of anything that guy.
Tristy will have a decent season. She has talent but JJ is right in suggesting she lacks hardness. Need him to impose himself more often.
Sick of big men that don't set the standard

Browne was not soft.
