Well he was upgraded during the season. To my knowledge he's just been offered a rookie contract again for next season.

Going by what Morton said this morning on SEN he will play as a small/midsized forward at the Swans. Interesting as he wanted and asked to be a midfielder at Punt Rd after playing as a forward.

Morton claimed on SEN that he hadn't had a proper full preseason since 2008-9 so he wasn't as fit as he was in his first couple of years at Richmond.

Morton's career at Tigerland was over as soon as Dimma arrived it seems ....

Tigers cast-off keen to make mark among Blood brothers
Michael Cowley
February 23, 2012.

In 2009, Morton was the Tigers' leading goalkicker with 41 for the season, but in the two years since, it has been a struggle. It coincided with new coach Damien Hardwick joining the club, and Morton says the new coaching staff ''probably had a little bit of a vision for the forward line that didn't really have me in it''.
 
''That's just footy; that's just life. You've got to roll with the punches and here we are and I've got a great opportunity to be part of a very successful team.

Yep good on you Mitch.....seem to remember you saying something along the the same lines when you left the WCE....

"I want to play more in the centre and Richmond are going to give me that chance, I have been told with Kerr, Judd and Cousins or whoever I wont get achance"

Well Mich you were given plenty of chances at the club in a few roles mate and you couldn't deliver.....

DIMMA - You will be held ACCOUNTABLE...

“We are really excited about what we have brought in. We have got great depth of players that can take us where we need to go. We are just putting some cream on the top at the moment,” he said.

Shaun Hampson is the No.1 man"

LMAO don't think he ever said anything like that when he came here. They played him as a wingman and he's a forward, so that's where we played him. He was good for two years and pretty poo for two years.

I don't hold anything against him.

He wanted unselfish players who stuck to team rules and were two way players.

Yep that's life.

Hardwick buggered morton around.

When morton went back to coburg to play in the midfield we heard that the role he was playing in the forward line was redundant and he sent mortan back to learn a midfield role

But we were also told that morton asked to go back to coburg to learn a midfield role?

After finishing 2010 showing lots of promise up the ground, what did dimma do with him at the start of 2011?

played him in that redundant forward role again. From there it was just downhill for mitch.
