The rise.... and RISE of Marc Pittonet

[pinot]

He was rested, the club said he had been ill and sore. He was seen (and photographed) drinking in Geel with this his brother and Geelong players. The club was allegedly made aware of this, it is likely to be a breach of rehab rules/standards for players. He isn't playing ones so its pretty easy to join the dots, to me at least. As I said, if true, I know the bloke is young but he's an idiot.

So whats Geelongs first pick in this years draft?

Doesn't matter. We'll take this years and next years. That'd do it.

For who, ............... the bloke you claim is over-rated?

So what is it, is he worth two 1st Round picks or not?

I suspect most fans want TDK out because the long term alternative is too shocking to think about for them, after all most fans are in fact that, fans.

It stands out on here as the thing never mentioned!

Watching him run around in the twos today, I'd say he isn't worth the steam of my shit.

He looks like he isnt interested and I can only think he knows his long term future is elsewhere..

I hope he isn't deliberately off the pace to lower his price, giving the Pussycats a better chance of securing him. Now I'll put the aluminium foil hate back in the cupboard.

Output, he is overrated. I stand by that. I don't know how anyone cannot.

Potential, is through the roof. Most 'fans' point to this when talking him up......and rightly so.

My issue is that he isn't anywhere near his potential, and doesn't appear to be getting any closer to it. He doesn't do enough around the ground to warrant being picked anywhere else.

So someone sniffing around him are doing so based on potential, not output. They would back themselves to get the most out of TDK where we are (somehow) failing. Geelong are always good to us at the trade table, so why not ask for 2 first round picks? Might involve 2 2nd round picks going back the other way, but if you don't ask you don't get.

Just on that last part. Chris Webber was drafted to the Magic at pick 1 in the NBA draft 20+ years ago. 15 minutes later, as is allowed in the rules, Chris Webber was traded for Penny Hardaway (who was just taken at pick 3 by the Warriors) and as a sweetener......3 first round picks!
"How did you manage to get 3 first round picks?"
"Well, i asked for 6!"

No harm in asking.

The story here, if true, is that a number of Geelong players including SDK were out drinking. :o

The big question is.  Why is Tom the only one in strife?

Players are allowed to have a drink or two Thry, but not if they have injury/fitness issues.  Tom was "managed" and shouldn't have been drinking.
