FAREWELL CALE MORTON

Featured Replies

My brother flew to Thailand today via Perth and told me that Cale Morton was on his flight. You story does check out...!

I thought nothing of it until a guy my mate follows on Twitter, posted a photo of Morton 200ms from Eagles HQ.

He heard him on the phone saying "It went well, I guess. We'll see what happens."

 
 

Probably having a medical with Claremont FC. If Mitchell & Blackwell get mature aged rookie spots somewhere the Tigers will need a good replacement


I'll be very sorry to see him go if indeed he does so. I can't deny that he has failed to live up to the potential he showed as a youngster, but he just looked so good during those couple of good seasons he had. I know I'm not the only one here who thought we had a genuine star on our hands. The loss of that hope will hurt, even if the reality is that he has never lived up to it.

he had a good season? when was that?


Who are all of these clowns that join up on this site and immediately start slagging off our players? It seems you only register to put the boot in...

I can confirm Cale is attempting to go to the Weagles

Cale in Perth

Asked how he was going, he replied "fingers crossed and see how we go."

Given that the bloke who took the photo and posted it on twitter is a regular contributor on here, it would seem to be common courtesy to quote your source.

Yeah i know because on this site for some reason you are inferior if you have less posts.

Well, you are inferior in that other posters have no track record on which to judge your posts. If the first thing you do when you start posting is to attack players, this is the only information we have on which to base judgements.

Nothing to do with being inferior... I am simply questioning their motives for joining.

Looking at that photo, it could be anyone... hardly a clear image.

WC first pick s 41 then 44 would much rather a player then a pick, maybe 44 would get us Pedro

If he played for North they would want pick 1.

Well I can tell you that no one who joins does it simply to slag of our players. However in some instances if they do not like the player they should be allowed to make a few jokes here and there. Lighten up

If you squint your eyes really hard and tilt your head to the left it looks a little bit like Cale... Cale or any other tall, slim guy with brown hair.


Good call HT maybe they should wait until they ave 100 posts up first

No, after 500 I might find it acceptable.... actually, forget that, I find all of the player bashing that goes on here far too predictable and tiresome.

You'd be surprised at the trolls that come on here.

Bagging Cale Morton the footballer is surely ok on a football forum. Bagging Cale Morton the bloke needs to be backed up with facts or left off.

If they were jokes (and funny ones at that), I might have a laugh, but unfortunately, I don't see too much to laugh at in a post that simply says "bloody hell, I hope this is true" or, "he is from WA. hope this is true and not a cruel joke" - don't know about you, but they didn't exactly have me rolling in the aisles.

That picture could be anyone. I don't remember Cale's legs being that big.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
