Steven Morris [merged]

[blaisee]

Port rate him very highly unfortunately. I have heard that it will all work out and he will end up a tiger. Probably for a middle latish pick

well boo hoo for port there aint a heck of alot they can do about that as  thats a 1 in 18 chance, if we rate him then put up or shut up

Not forgetting of course that if he doesn't want to be picked by anyone then he simply doesn't nominate for any draft.  Ball is in his court until he decides to nominate.

pee off Port.

This is from a Port supporter on BF:

"My guess is that he didn't expect to be pre-selected as a GWS player and traded to Port at the end of the year, hence before then he trained with you guys to improve his chances at getting into an AFL club.

And since he's settled in Adelaide and has been given the opportunity to play for an AFL club (as well as his SANFL club), he may as well play for Port."

He can't be pre selected by GWS can he? He hasnt been on a senior AFL list before

No this bloke is making poo up seriously, BF is full of BS artists, I rarely give it a glance.

He applied for the national draft before, but wasn't selected.  That means he can be pre-listed.

My bad, I thought pre selection was for those who were on an AFL list before.

Why would he bother coming over and training with us late in the season if being pre-listed by GWS and remaining in SA by being picked up by Port was his preferred option? I guess we'll find out the answer next Friday IIRC when the F/S nominations need to be submitted.

Looks like now if Richmond want Morris under the Father/Son rule we can grab him....

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Giants have offered former Woodville-West Torrens forward/midfielder Jarrod Harding - who has returned to Adelaide - as part of a deal.

Tough West Adelaide defender Steven Morris - who has trained with Richmond as a father-son prospect - has also been linked to Port as part of a complicated package. He is the son of former Tigers star Kevin Morris.

But Rohde indicated the Power is seeking other options.

"GWS has brought Jarrod's name up with us and we've spoken to the player as well but I'm not sure whether he'll be a part of any deal," Rohde said. "And it's the same with Steven. We'll catch up with the Giants in Melbourne this week (at the AFL draft combine) and see what options are available to us.

"But a lot will depend on what deals and other picks GWS gets at the start of trade week. We're trying to get an experienced player into the club and draft picks, so we'll see what unfolds."

I'd be interested to know if we actually want him. Come on Friday, hurry up.

Taking into consideration how 'shallow' this years draft is, I reckon they will pick him up, or at least try to.
