doesn't happen often with your club. I was actually trying to be balanced & rational this time.

Morton obviously rated highly within Melbourne!
Gee pick 4 only a few years back and now offloaded for virtually nothing.

I guess we figure he went early in the draft for a reason and we can de-Melbournise him.
Hopes aren't high, but seeing as we refuse to play Stevenson anyway I guess it's worth taking a punt.

It's a can't lose proposition for the Eagles...if he continues to fail, it cost nothing but the dollars in his contract (and the Eagles are hardly short of cash). On the other hand, maybe the Eagles will be able to uncover the reasons why he was valued at pick 4 just a few short years ago.
The JON experiment didn't work, better luck this time.

Was he picked up to replace JON?

For 88 an absolute steal, he can play, just seemed like he never wanted to be there. Melbourne's recruiting coming back to bite them losing Morton and Gysberts (2 very high draft picks) for basically nothing.
It'll be interesting to see who gets picked up at 88 and his impact on afl football. The next James Hird or Dean Kemp
.
Pick 4 to pick 88. Surely there's some sort of tax benefit we can obtain from having had the greatest depreciating asset in the history of mankind?

pick 88 is overs for Cale Morton
Not even the Eagles steroid program could put any weight on this pea hearted softcocck

Or an AFL premiership like his other brother?
Betting agencies have us 3rd - that's a decent place to start.
We're as close as Sydney were at the end of 2011.
With some pretty good footballers missing they spent a lot of time in the top 2 this season. I don't necessarily think they're all stars, but bring back in Le Cras and Nicoski, and get a full pre-season into Kennedy and they must be a chance. WCE fans don't need me to state their case though...

God that's painful to watch, but the problem was he did it all the time, it wasn't an isolated incident.
We really got massive overs for him
I suspect he will benefit a lot from being part of an experienced playing group. Time will tell. Some players need confidence and he's been in the gun since pretty early in his career with the Dees.

The timing was the worst part, we had kicked the last 3 goals of the game and had momentum.
Than that happened.
cheers, Cale.
