You don't think Cale Morton takes risks by trying to be creative with his kicking?

Oh dear.

trying to be creative? are u joking? He sh!ts his pants everytime he has it. He just tries to get rid of it as soon as possible.

The clip of him running away from Lade really sums him up. He may of got the ball later on in that passage of play but do you think James Mcdonald, Mclean, Jones, Miller, , Frawley, Rivers, Sylvia, Dunn, Petterd, Martin qould have run away? Unlikely.

He does nothing of the sort. If anything, Morton spends more time trying to find an option than most players on our team.

I've posted before that I'd rather Morton continue to try to find options and create with his kicking - a la Travis Johnstone - than revert to robotic decision-making.

See Nathan Jones for an example of getting rid of it as soon as he gets a kick in the centre - although he's much improved this season.

I'm all for having a debate about the merits of a player and his actions, but both sides have to be grounded in fact. You're struggling on this occasion, Freak.

i'm sorry but palmer is definitely a better kick of the footy. He takes risks whereas Morton doesn't. thats the only difference. Making mistakes taking risks is a lot better than making mistakes not taking risks. As flattering as Mortons ability to find the ball is, it's equally as disheartening the way he uses the footy. They cancel each other out.

Palmer a better kick than Morton. ROFL ROFL ROFL

You're an idiot.

I think you only saw the very selective clip that was shown by Fox and The Footy Show; the extended clip shows Morton not running away from Lade but running to meet the next passage of play.

And Morton doesn't sh!t his pants, he looks very comfortable with the ball.

Stick to your original argument - that Palmer is a more accurate kick.

That may be true but Morton has vision, a HUGE tank, a raking (if inconsistent) kick, and a few inches on Palmer.

They are neck and neck right now (major injuries aside) but the club didn't draft him to be the best player in his second year, he drafted him to be the best player in his 5th year. And being a wingman at 193cm - he looks like he could be a very special player.

FFS freak, the kids 19 years old body barely finished developing the factthat his able to win a fair amount of ball as it is is good progress.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
