Steve Morris F/S

Yep, hasn't done anything lately and has been more than a hinderance.

Letting Hibberd run inside 50 unmarked only for him to receive a handball and goal was thanks to Morris' lack of a football brain.
 
Would any other team have given this guy the contract we have ....NO ...now we are stuck with him on our books for god knows how long ...
 
How he is dealt with over rest of 2014 will indicate whether we are serious about turning this disaster around. He would be 700th best player in the AFL.
 
He was one of the better small defenders last year (only a couple of times did he get beaten by his direct opponent). This year he has been disappointing and his performance today was truly appalling. Dimma has to take some of the heat for that, why he chooses to play a defensive forward who has little idea what to do there and quite frankly was poor against Hibberd I have no idea. We seriously miss a true small forward, why Dimma chooses to play Morris forward and drop Lloyd just shocks me. I don't see what he did wrong, and tonight we were terrible at keeping the ball in the forward 50 (in the few chances we had) as we had no-one to tackle and keep the ball there.

Morris should not be in the team next week.

Funnily enough, apparently, McDonough was a very good small forward as a late teenager.

Do you think the club knows this..?? !

Let's not always go back, he was good last year, but where in 2014 now and his deficiencies are highlighted.
Can't mark, can't kick, goes to ground all the time and gives away too many frees for a defender.
Him as a forward :rofl
