How could anyone fault Morris' game yesterday?!  :huh It was only Malthouse on the tv coverage that was rabbiting on about needing to see Morris' skills under pressure against top opposition before judging. You missed seeing the first two rounds Micky?

^ agree - Morris again helped set the standard with attack on contest/man/ball...there were/are question marks over his disposal and decision making but so far I'd say that he's held up pretty well...at the very least he's already better in both disposal and decision making than Hackson
...the fighting fury...

Gets a bit confusing trying to work out if it's Morris or Ellis and doesn't help when the stupid cameraman is a million miles away

I wasn't sold on Morris in his first game but he seems to be picking up the pace of AFL seniors very quickly and I'm happy with what he's shown so far.

And agree Julz, him and Ellis look like twins on the TV.

morris's hair is more blonde/ brighter/ lighter if you get my drift?

Didn't you realise he was too busy doing laps of the 'G' in a convertible to pay attention in Round 2.  :lol

Morris was great in this game, did some really clever things to beat his opponent/s, and he won his duels well I thought.

agreed - his pace and ability to gain ground on oppenents was exciting. looks really fresh and always gives a contest. He also seems to be adjusting well to the pace of the game.

Do you think maybe Mick is being a little hard on him cos he knows his old man? and is being a bit cheeky?  ;)

Actually understand the point Mick was trying to make

After round 1 there were obvious question marks on his disposal and though each week there's been improvement the question marks remain IMHO over his disposal by foot
