What's the story with this guy? He was showing potential and playing ok, now he's in the 2's and doesn't seem close to coming back. Can anyone enlighten me as to what he did wrong? ???

He's too small to be able to be effective in a Key possition post.  He is just slightly taller than a run of the mill midfielder and really has no presence.  I saw him in Coburg and he really struggled to assert his authority.  I question RFC's recruiting of Morrison as he's a forward flank at best.
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

Terry Wallace made it very clear that he doubted this kid was the answer for a KPP at the elite AFL level, I guess that kind of criticism didnt go down too well with many Richmond supporters but perhaps our need at Richmond of a powerful forward like J.Brown has clouded our view of him and maybe Terry is right that this kid isnt upto it.

But its also his first season here and I'd give him until the end of next year to prove his worth, we shall see how he goes.
