I think Morris as a defender goes ok as depth.
When comparing him to Hunt I think Morris definitely hits the opponents harder, particularly in the air in marking contests.
However, Hunt has better offensive ability which helps Brandon Ellis enormously. Brandon's games are always so much better when there are 3 offensive runners out of the backline.
When it is just him and Houli, his numbers drop.
It is a really close call between them but at the end of the day, if Yarran was fit they both wouldn't play but we would have 3 defenders in Ellis, Houli and Yarran who can rip it up from the back half. However, none of them are elite defenders so Vlaustin will have to play a lot of deep defense if they go in that direction and Rance will be covering their butts a few times (which he is exceptional at). I am looking fwd to seeing that uber offensive running defense later in the season if the 3 can get healthy at one time and see if it holds up against the best teams and creates some really stunning ball movement from the back half.
Vital inclusion, vital 4 possessions....
Was well out of the best 22 late last year and did nothing over the preseason to turn that around. In fact he looked like an even bigger liability. Yet somehow is a rd 1 lock. Go figure.
Hardwick's hard-on for Morris is almost a sackable offence.

To be fair none of them were:se7en said:
He had ONE disposal in each of the 4 quarters. 2 kicks 2 handballs with 100% disposal efficiency. 1 contested possession, 3 uncontested. 2 tackles.
All in 71% game time.
This isn't park footy, this is AFL footy and a back man with Morris pace and build and experience should be clearing the ball driving it forward....with regularity.
Yet he keeps serving up these sub 6 possession games. It's just ridiculous he gets a game.
At best VFL standard. Just has no idea whatsoever. Huge amount of heart and desire for the contest, but no skill or brains.
