Jako was an extremely limited footballer who found a niche in 2013 and looked okay due to midfield depth at the time.

Jako did well to play within his limitations, ,,,,eventually ...we actually miss the bugger now, severely lacking an extra inside mid,,,could even do with Thomas until Ellis comes on

-6 metres gained from 4 disposals in a full game.

Hardwick defending playing Morris as a forward ...

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

“There are three different forms of the game . . . defence, offense and stoppage.  And, from our point of view at the moment, Steven does the majority of those pretty well,” Hardwick said.

“His defensive pressure up forward is outstanding.

“Would we like him to get on the scoreboard more?  Absolutely.  I think he’s only kicked one goal for the year.

“But we see some signs he’s causing turnovers, he’s creating mayhem up there.

He's creating mayhem for RFC supporters who rip their hair out when they see a potential shot on goal go down the toilet. I do agree he does cause turnovers. RFC has the ball, Morris gets involved in the chain and the result is we turn it over

Hardwick refuses to accept he has made a mistake and his denial shows that he is losing touch with reality.

I like Steve Morris and I don't care if he plays forward or back as long as he is in the team. We have so many soft, weak, vanilla players that couldn't give a poo about our club. They  make feel me sick in the stomach watching them prance around in a tigers jumper.
Anyone that has a decent crack is good enough for me. I'd rather watch us loose with blokes that give 100% each week than watching Ellis, Houli, Grigg and Griffiths run around avoiding body contact. If you think Morris is the problem and not these guys than good luck.

I'd rather play 11 Pettifers & 11 Tamblings than 22 of Morris....

Morris playing is unquestionably a big part of the problem. He's an ordinary footballer who gets a game because as you've said he has a crack. Not his fault he gets picked every week I guess.

Not sure about Griffiths avoiding contact either. Seen him run over blokes on more than one occasion this year.

Griff is a 200cm, 100kg marshmallow unfortunately.
