Of course, definately take what he said with a grain of salt. But considering he plays with Meek and is around the club to hear things, not to mention he's a professional athlete who's probably had his fair share of injuries and been around other athletes who have possibly had the same/similiar injury, I would pay a little more attention to what he says over say a non-athlete outside of the club making a casual observation.
Morrison is out of contract end of this year and you couldn’t begrudge him if he looked elsewhere for more opportunity. I would love to get him to 100 games, could be a perfect choice for the sub in up coming games. His form, cool head and experience warrants it. Leaving O’Meara on 99 games is one that might be regretted in years to come.
I think “gross list management incompetence” is a bit much.
Fair chance we will have enough injuries throughout the year he gets to 100, but i am not gifting games to someone just so they can reach 100 on the off chance they produce a talented kid.
Considering Harry doesn't have a kid yet and that possibility is at minimum 19 years away from bearing fruit, I'd say it's not really worth it. If non-QLD and NSW clubs get what they want with academies, there's no guarantee father son will continue in its current state for that long anyway.
Its a fair point and no brainer for mine. Look at Dean Anderson and Ben Allan (which luckily didn't hurt us cos we miss out on Day and Weddle if we had to match those bids). Have Harry as a sub for 5 games if we need to.
Well if we had Anderson we would almost certainly not have Day so i am not sure it looks much better at all.
If Harry's bearing potential F/Ss as fruit then I hope he has a pear.
I think we match up against them pretty well defensively. I don't think they have the type of forward that can really get a hold of us, that 200cm strong contested marking type.
I’ve been hard on MacDonald and thought he could’ve potentially been dropped earlier in the year but no way should he be dropped after last week- he was working his ass off in that last quarter when Brisbane were threatening - put on a massive tackle for holding the ball and also kicked a big goal to help snuff them out… stays in the side for the foreseeable future you would think…
We seem to get better value out of our mid tier players than our superstars for F/S.
There was also that moment on wing with 5 minutes to go where he essentially stole it out of arms of Lions player which eventually lead to that goal from Gunners.
I’d ignore both and wait for the club injury report.
Imagine how many of those 12,581 had sons……who turned out to be not talented enough…..to warrant a national draft selection, let alone a club father/son selection.
