why does morton need to run all the way back to halfl back and up to the wing? if hes a fwd pocket, why cant he hang around inside the fwd 50, lead up, and crumb around goals. there is a place in all sides for a steve j type fwd. you wouldnt want ur third tall kicking you 3 goals a game?? morton can kick goals, and as a fwd pocket id say his major role was kicking goals, not helping get the ball at half back/wing.
This is the role Riewoldt plays. & in ours & Hawthorns game plan they dont keep as many guys structured close to goal as some other sides.
Especially with Riewoldt being so good one on one they dont want other defenders dragged near him.
Morton is going to have to get supremely fit even in AFL terms (which he is far from) to play under Dimma. Running up & back all match.
If he does there will be a place for him. If he's doesnt work his absolute arse off they'll p!ss him off as there wont be a role for him.
