Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

RICHMOND forward Mitch Morton could be traded to Sydney today for a very late draft pick in last-minute dealing before the trade week deadline.

The Swans have expressed some interest in the uncontracted goalsneak who came to Richmond from West Coast.

Swans have picks 35, 43 and 61. A late pick could be either 43 or 61. The latter is pretty much handing Morton to the Swans for free.

We got pick 44 for Rainesy in a stronger draft two years ago who was pretty much in the same boat as Morton is now. Morton cost us pick 35 when we took him off the Eagles.

I'd keep Morton over a late pick. Eff pick 61. Eff the Ducks.

We might as well have delisted him  :P. Pick 79 means Morton is a freebie for the Swans.

wow...

just wow

ridiculous pathetic trade - may as well delist and let Mitch and sydney sort it out themselves. FFS pick 79 in any draft is about 1 in 10 hit and miss, in this weak draft that everyone used to justify pick37 for maric  ::) is like its pick 120.

stuff off

If we just delist him doesn't pick 79 become pick 100 and something?
