Pick 53 - Western Bulldogs - Harry Morrison
DEF/MID Murray Bushrangers
12/11/98 182CM 73KG
Comparison: Heath Shaw
Morrison was one of the players to watch back in 2015, even though only playing the last 7 games due to suffering an ACL. This year he has continued to play well, prominently as a small defender. He has very good lateral movement, a strong leap and a big tank. The most impressive side of Morrison's game is his football IQ which contributes to reading the play and an excellent intercept mark. Morrison also excels with his quick hands and high DE by foot on both sides of his body.
Morrison performed in the top 10 of the 81 players in several of the Draft Combine challenges, including agility (fourth), beep test (fourth), running vertical jump, left foot (equal seventh) and equal second in the goal kicking.
Strengths:
Lateral movement/side step
Intercept marking
Disposal efficiency
Attacking the play at speed
Weaknesses:
Pure speed
Unknown midfield capabilities
Rational:
The Bulldogs embrace these types of players, smart, link players with sound disposal skills. He could spend some time through the midfield or forward
