Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!
That's the definition of selling low. As if we will use 79!
This has ruined trade week for me.

79 hey, would've thought he'd be worth a bit more than that.

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

Seventy-nine















****.



Will we even use that?!!!

 

[Bird Man]

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

Wow just wow.

 

[turtle27]

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

Then again, if he was going to be delisted, 79 is OK, but would we use it, or keep as a Rookie spot?

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

Bent us over nicely.. Will get his shit together at Sydney.

Still, was never going to be what we all expected at Richmond, but pick 79 is just shit for a player with Mortons potential.

25 year old HFF's who still rely on potential just don't cut it these days.

would have liked maybe a 50's pick but not cryinghe has gone.

Could not consolidate a spot in our team in 4 years.

Good luck to him.

So much for stig saying we will not do anything today . Or words to that effect.

With Morris coming to us we needed to off load a player to get the balance right again.

I have a feeling there might be another player to go in the next 2.5 hours.

Surely we have some sort of agreement with someone... Ridiculous if not.

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

What a useless job on our part. Absolutely horrid job.

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

At his best Mitch is worth a top 30 pick. We paid pick 35 and he's played his best footy with us. Topped our goal kicking one year. Dimma obviously really doesn't rate him. Clearly we only want one type of player, and if you don't have the elite defensive skills your good, unique qualities mean nothing.

 

[UpTheGuts]

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

That's his market price... evidently

Swans could have a real bargain there, but clearly he was not coming back to Punt Road

Wish him well - had a few fun times watching Mitch

 

[Danog]

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

Swans had 35, 42, 60. Surely we could have gotten at least 60.

Re: Farewell Mitch Morton !

All the best Mitch. Very disappointed to see you go. Will miss that Stevie J like snap.

 

[juss]

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

Rubbish trade. Pick 79 is virtually useless in any draft let alone this one.
Will get us nothing and Mitch will become a good player at Sydney.

Dissapointing, big loss here.

 

[Regular Gonzales]

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

Would have liked more but was probably going to be delisted anyway. 79 is better than nothing. Draft a mature age mid, Tuck or Valenti?

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

I dont get it... Last year he went to the coach and said that he wants to play up the ground more, so hardwick and co says yes and he went to coburg for about 10 weeks to learn to play upfield. He came back in and played as a damaging wingman type player, and played quite well! and we all had high hopes for 2011 but then the coaches put him back as a forward..........stupid, stupid.

Then we trade him for pick 79 ????

Something doesnt sound right does it? I cant help but wonder about his personal leave last season and how deep it goes.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

Watch him become a typical astute sydney pickup.

Should have got more

 

[tigerT]

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

wow just wow

 

[tigs2010]

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

Was getting delisted anyway. Just helping him to his club of choice. But still would have thought we could get 61 seems Sydney probably wont use that pick anyway.

 

[Punt_Road_Roar]

Re: Farewell Mitch Morton !

Cya Mitch, hope you get yourself together up at the Swans.

 

[peejay]

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

Was he contracted ? I think he was on better money that he showed so frees more salary cap - this was done with an eye to free agency, you can bet on that.

 

[Grechy]

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

Pick 79. We’ve basically just given him up for free. Gutted.

 

[tugga]

Re: Farewell Mitch Morton !

can someone post a link confirming? Preferably the OP can do it.

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

WTF ??????????????????

Why the hell do the trade, Just delist them.

If sydney want him they can take him psd or he can go play vfl. Why facilitate the player or the opposition club.

Really having doubts about our trading this year, whilst the Morris deal was good could of been better by including Saad aswell.

Maric we definately over paid imo , They guy was uncontracted with the determination he was coming to us OUR 1ST OFFER IS A 2nd ROUNDER WTF !!

Mitch Morton ................... 79 Takes the cake
just delist them, why help players that dont perform for us to get to another club to perform for them.

This trade period is rated a big F .................. FAIL

FFS chad cornes & Brogan went for 49

Re: Tigers' Morton may join Sydney

We need answers soon from the RFC.

What's pick 79 going to do? Draft us a goat???

What planet are we living on.
