Hard to see any existing AFL club picking Mitch up. Maybe GWS might be interested in Morton as a midsized marking forward. He just hasn't adapted to a midfield role.

One dimensional. Too slow, too streaky.
Another trade that didn't work out.

I actually think he is very talented. The best snap for goal at our club. Can kick clutch goals under pressure. Is a true forward not a mid.

One huge negative though as a forward is his lack of defensive intensity and pressure. This is just so important in footy now.

He will be known as a Kane Pettifer MkII.

Mitch can play.  I don't know why things havn't worked out for him here, he was our leading goal kicker when he was up forward and JR8 was finding his feet.  Must be more going on than we know about.

No owl, he just hasn't had a kick in the last couple of seasons. I thought we'd picked up a beauty in his first two years here

Well he isn't getting on the paddock, the position change hasn't worked or something coz the bloke can play football.

He was poo when he played ones this year man. Dimma hates the way he plays anyway. I actually like the bloke but he's been poor

no arguement, he hasn't come good this year, I just can't understand what it is , the pace of the midfield maybe?  When he is in the forward line, he is pretty bloody handy, he takes good marks, snaps great opportunistic goals...

Mitch can play.

He can kick a nice snap occasionally from the sidelines.

I agree entirely with Dimma's distaste as a player. Very selfish footballer IMO.
