Cale had his issues some of which were probably exacerbated by our "development" of players at the time. However his implied cowardice in this comment is just wrong.

If you google "Cale Morton" the third auto response is "running away".....

    I agree.

    It was more overt than one could possibly imagine or ever imply.

    I love this thread... its about Cale now... I was expecting a comment about McCartin's report in the VFL - but we can let it go through to the keeper... CP5 is CaleV2.0? (new AND improved of course, not that things can be new AND improved).

    Talking about that useless [censored] McCartin just got boring.

    KB's a washed up old hack.

    They need someone to replace  Vickery and Paddy may just be the dud to do the job.

    Listening to KB read his scripted tosh is embarrassing.  He tries to create the story, and I bet he smells of urine and old farts.  He may want Trac's biatch at Richmond, but it's not,going to happen.  Sainters would be looking at 2018 and beyond for this kid, and the rest is a bonus.

    As for the report, he hit the kid pretty hard, when he was unprotected and late.  Be interesting how the MRP review it.

    Paddy looks like he lives off a diet of burgers and fries. He's a big unit. That was a hard hit to the back of the guy's ribs whilst he had his arms up marking. At least 1 week.

    McCartin reminds me of Rene Kink in build at the same age. Huge. Saw the hit on video

    late and hard. 2 weeks is what it should be. He lined him up from a long way out

    Paddy will be a very good player but he is going to take some time, I fully expect the saints will just let him develop as best they can to take over when roo calls time. 

    Im very happy with petracca but they're probably to different to compare

    Never a bigger crock of unfounded [censored] posted. And that's saying something

    All it would take is for someone to link McCartin to Melbourne and this thread will fill with platitudes for the bloke.

    I would've thought someone with nearly 9,000 posts might have actually read a thread or 2 on here. Player sentiment blows like the breeze. But carry on.

    Hyperbole, blowhards and smart alecs are commonplace. Post counts are irrelevant. But keep at it you.

    Yes, thats exactly what he was doing. Vision made him look like a coward but in reality he was doing what any smart player should have done..... go for the ball/stay in the contest.

    Poor basterd gets lots of undeserved flack from that single bit of vision that doesnt tell anything like the whole story.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
