Morris is a nutter. Happy to die for the jumper  :bow

Almost makes up for losing cogs.

So refreshing after decades of softies.

Love steve morris..plays with a passion and hardness most of us tiger supporters have been waiting years to see.
Last year being his first season ,i did see some areas that i think  need improving.the first being his overhead ability,and the other being his positioning relative to his opponent.if i remember correctly on just a few occasions he was turned inside out.one that sticks was eddie betts.i know last year was his first season and i have no doubt he's one of those characters who will work fiercely to overcome any perceived defficiencies.

sometimes blokes like betts will just turn you inside out, no matter where you position yourself
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

they boil my blood too. when i play i want to carry rocks so i can throw them at these types as they run away from me.

some players use brute strength to evade their opponent and some players use pace and agility. good sides have a mix of both, which is something the "hes too easily pushed off the ball" brigade don't seem to understand.

id say the pushed of it too easily brigade are very aware of pace and agilkity for small forwards. we see it to devastating effect with blokes like betts rioli bruest milne etc.
funny isnt it, it seems  these blokes  have more than just pace and agility. which sort of forms the basis of most arguments about our small forwards.
  its not pace or agility that we complain about with the likes of nahas. its the lack of all other things.
things like  his inability to keep his feet. his inability to stay over the ball the inability to lay a decent tackle the terrible foot skills have you ever seen such a one sided player. cant kick more than 40 metres on his good foot. lacks polish and class  .it wouldnt be the countless lost opportunities or the lack of height given we play three runts in nahas king and edwards now that makes for great structure. as a sml forward where does he rank in the over all scheme of things imo hes well down the list. hes a vfl player nothing more and we have to be aiming higher.

nope it seems robbie is a well rounded top notch player who has pace and agility and we dont need to improve on him.  seems  we cant improve on him  after all he kicked 36 goals i reckon my gran would have got 20 of them. how many should we  have kicked with so many inside 50s.
when hes poo hes really poo but as long as he kicks the odd goal hes a keeper.unbelievable.

you seem to have a strange perception of we, us, and them, claw.
Not everything written here is about you know? Just like one or two people disagreeing with you on any one point is not everyone.

When i made this comment you were not in the firing line. i cant recall you ever complaining about nahas being pushed off the ball too easily, but as you say you highlight his other deficiencies.

There are others who make this simple complaint about seemingly every smaller built player on the list. Yet I cant recall once, a complaint being made about how easily our more solidly built players are sometimes easily outpaced to the ball or sidestepped by opposition players. You'd think that it never happens.

and no, the brigade I'm taking about do not seem understand some of the points you have made, coz they dont concentrate on the real deficiencies. they just complain about the player being too small. An overly simplistic argument that indicates they think there is no place in the game for smaller, agile, fast players, but once again i must stress THIS iIS NOT AIMED AT YOU, don't be so paranoid.

How you attempted to twist this general statement into an argument about one specific player is quite flabbergasting actually. Except for that part, if you changed "we" to "I", we, I mean I, would agree with your post.

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."
