Mitch Morton

[DemonDing 56]

Just wondering if anyone knows how long hes got on hes contract and if anyone thinks hes worth a punt?

i reckon he'd be better player then say miller and hes only 22 pretty handy i forward and yes i know hes

from Richmond but maybe we'd be doing the poor fella a favour by getting him outta there early.

I only brought this up as there isnt many forwards being thrown around in all the trade rumours at the moment

and we have the obivious brother connection too...?

What are your thoughts???

The only other player i can think of is Justin Westoff but i dont really rate him too highly....

With great talls like Temel & Mitchell going around tonight - who would seriously consider him

[Gorgoroth 12,331]

No.

Third tall option really and I'd rather punt on a kid than a average player.

[DemonDing 56]

yeah fair enough just thought he wasnt too bad maybe worth a shot, i just to be honest cant stand watching bradley miller

running around for us anymore i've had enough of him i think if we could do a trade it would be good for him and the MFC

[Freak 100]

mitch morton is not an average player. He is a very good one. He's an unfairly maligned player. He kicked 41 goals in a horrible forward line that got poor delivery.

[Tatu 416]

I'd rather try and pick up Jarrod Morton from the Hawks, he hasn't been getting games.

[Freak 100]

mitch morton is the best of the brothers at this stage

He's the eldest right?

How mush older than Cale is he?

[tez 6]

NO THANKS

i have been to most Richmond games this year with my partner who is a long time supporter and this guy reeks a lack of class his set shots are not up to it

sorry to say but i dont think any of the Mortons have it just like the Houlihan clan over paid and under acheivers

[Mono 454]

...... but i dont think any of the Mortons have it ...........

I tend to agree, but whatever, one Morton is enough for any club. <_<

I'm pretty sure the Tigers re-signed him on a two year deal a couple of weeks ago

I tell you guys, I was a bit worried about Cale but...

Thanks, Freak. Put my mind at ease.

Cale is going to be sh!tloads better than Mitch.

Phew!

Bagging our young up-n-coming teenage stars is getting so old...

i mean how many times do you muppets have to be proven wrong before you call youngsters failures wayyy too early.

Sylvia had all the qualities and skills to make it... everyone calls for his delisting... and he came good.

Other players to be written off rediculously are Pettard, Jones and Frawley.

Even Garland was called to be delisted in his first year!!!

Morton is 194cm so has very nice height. He has elite running capacity. Has the ability to kick goals, particularly on the run. He has consistently gotten above 25 possessions per game. He has improve his marking out of sight. He was also recruited with elite skills, and his decision making has improved lots

It is just so obvious to me that when he hits 23 yrs old he'll be an absolute superstar. If other people can't see it then they must be blind.

Agree - Cale Morton will be a GUN, a must be stopped player in 2-3 years - not sure what more he needs to show in years 1&2 for a pick 4 high talent. He's been a very solid player in a crap team and shown real improvement this year down back. Best brother clearly.

[spurs-r-us 0]

I aret MM very highly and a HF line with him and Bate on either sid is mouthwatering. I am, however, reluctant to trade any of the top 4 picks unless a serious bargain comes up.

Mate, get a grip. Cale is a GOOD player, that's all at this stage. He really needs to improve in 2010 to be classed anything better. I hate reading these posts that say Cale is a Superstar. Judd = Superstar, Ablett = Superstar, Morton = NOT a superstar. History shows we have players with a lot of potential, but we do not develop. That's why we are in the position we are in.

Do we try for Mitch Morton? Stupid question. As long as my ass points to the ground we will never try for him. Why would you??? If anything, we need to take a leaf out of the "better" teams book and get some experienced players in the mix to add that maturity to our team. I know he is a [censored], but why not giving number 11 pick back to Carlton for Fev?

I like how the team is developing, but find it frustrating that a few clubs (Geelong, Dogs, Crows, Pies) haven't needed to bottom out to re-develop their list. If we win 6+ in 2010, I will be over the moon. I love Bails, but am very frustrated ATM.

[Freak 100]

I would take Mitch Morton if we were playing in a GF tomorrow but i'd take Cale for the future...but he seriously better bulk up a bit..its embarrassing. The majority of supporters don't rate Cale Morton, it's only you narrow-minded, biased people that seem to think they are better than they are.

Morton kicked 41 goals. No-one can deny this is a great effort considering he is playing for the tiges. How many goals would he kick for geelong/saints/dogs? 50-60? who knows

[Bucks-Fan 1]

I would much rather Majak Daw in the forward line than Mitch Morton.

Mitch is talented, admitted.. he has good genetics

but imagine Daw and Jurrah in the forward...

Adding Fev to a primary school team would bring the maturity level of that team down. He would be absolutely no value to us in that respect.

[Guest hangon007]

Boys you are wasting your time ... this guy is a cult hero down at Tigerland ... they would get rid of a coach before they would get rid of Mitch Morton

Wont happen ...
