Steven Morris [merged]

Again, Butler a better option up forward than Morris.

[Penelope]

Morris primary aim up forward is to lock down down a half back and pressure the defenders. he does a better job at pressuring the defenders than any other forward, but from what i saw was constantly running from loose player to loose player today, which is not an indictment on him. It may be a case that his best ( only) spot is as to lock down small forwards, but i'd give him time in the new role. if a few others had his intensity and willingness to compete we'd be a better side

[WilliamPowell]

Agree Morris as the small defensive forward isn't working but as I said to someone today he will play every single this season unless his head falls off

He is IMHO Dimma's number one favourite so his place  is guaranteed (prepared for the whacks )

I will put my hand up and say he frustrates the hell out of me. Goes to ground too often and still cannot make the right choice as to when to go the bump or go the ball.

Thought he was poor today

Sure but that's what we said of many duds in the past.

Why didnt we get a genuine small forward like Garlett when we had the chance.
Stupid money grabbing wankers know how to waste a second round pick on the biggest dud in AFL history continuing to enjoying being the perennial laughing stock of the competition.

So who is our crumber???
And who is our backup ruck???

North have no problem ansering these questions but we have been asking them since Plapp.

Ill take a limited ability player who gives his all over an under performing, talented player who just waltzes along, every day of the week.

To be known as the 'Plapp Conundrum' from this day on

[Yeahright]

Thought he showed progress. Still behind the 8-ball but he's learning a new position and if Dimma's going to persevere with the experiment at least Morris is giving it a crack and improving

[Diocletian]

We do have another bloke on the list who actually perormed this role quite well at Melbourne and can also kick goals.

[WA Tiger]

Another overrated player like Batch. Should not be in the leadership group and is borderline AFL/VFL.

"Hard Nut" doesn't really cut it these days, he needs to show more than that...

[tony_montana]

Im all for Morris playing as a defensive fwd when he has to shutdown the likes of a Yarran or Heath Shaw type, but other than that, keep him back, still our best small shutdown defender by a mile

[Yeahright]

Think someone else has said it but we have always needed to upgrade King to get a better performing small forward who can kick goals but all Hardwick wants is someone to play that mediocre role? We shouldn't need a forward in there specifically to apply pressure at the cost of attacking power, we should have a good attacking small who also provides plenty defensively.

[YellowandBlackBlood]

I think 99% agree with you Yeahright.

Yep think most have made it clear but if we can all see it why can't Hardwick?
