I expect his consistency to improve, Saturday game was his 6th AFL game.

A six game rookie with a 94 and 105 is nothing to be sneezed at.
I would expect a 6 game rookie (Pickett) to be inconsistent, but being a mature player would help consistency, so I'm on the fence.
Priced at $216,400 BE/12 maybe better rookies to choose.

Moving interstate, setting up home with a family and contracts on hold would have some impact.

Richmond approached the AFL, as Pickett was still on a Rookie contract.

Pickett could easily get to $400,000 in 4 weeks.He's basically a starting mid every week now
He's a worry, so unpredictable and even yesterday showed how he can go missing in games. I'd still expect to see some sub 50 games

Thankfully Richmond play on Friday night next week so we can put the E on him. My thinking aligns with NT Thunder, I think we will still see the odd shocker SC score from him from time to time this year.

Agree, but consistency in scoring across games and in games is a different thing for me. Pickett seems to accumulate pts in bursts and this seemed evident yesterday with long periods not even sighted. I'll be looping him as often as I can.
