Sydney is the best destination for recycle footballer, but i doubt he want to play footy in the highest level and will take a different career path.

I think anybody who has even a slight idea about football recognises the potential that Mora had. Of course it may have gone anywhere, but those early years; the power, poise, physical size, speed, and driving long kick - it's that feeling of what we almost had, and not once, but over and over again every time he (nearly) recovered from his next major injury we were teased yet again.
Mora's career from a Freo fan's perspective was like watching us get a repeated first round pick, one year after the next, only to have it taken away again. So frustrating. Much harder for him of course.
But, it went where it went and he's going to take some good stuff with him on his journey from here. And who knows, maybe without the pressure of top flight, a bit of time off or something, he might finish his career as good player at lower levels and maybe a WAFL flag or two.

Why the f....k do people want to discuss Morra playing for another club. He's retiring from the AFL.

At this stage, next to zero. If he decides to continue at WAFL level and he completes a full season or so (not likely itself), he might get a good look at - but I doubt it, I think he's done.

True but do you honestly think with three knee recos and countless other leg injuries he's going to put himself in the draft or shop himself to other clubs when he is leaving to move on with his life.
Can't believe that running goal was in 2010.
I had just come back from 6 years overseas.
I've since got married. Had a 4 year old with another one on the way. Bought 2 houses. Put on about 25kgs!
To think he's been rehabbing all his injuries and only added a few more games during that time is upsetting.
All the best to him.

No chance.
He was supposed to be delisted 2 seasons ago, but because of his high draft pick and well attitude he got given a chance.

Right move by all concerned but hell its gut wrenching to see all those years of pain,self sacrifice and turmoil come to nought. Best of luck to you Mora in your future endeavours.

Didn't realise that he'd injured his quad in the victory over East Perth until I saw it on the AFL website.
Unbelievably unlucky player. What could've been...
It must've felt like taking aim at Bambi for Chris Bond today.
Sincerely good luck with the rebuild. Derbies are better when both teams are legitimately competing for finals, and come 2018 at the new stadium...oh yeah!

Yep defiantly feels like we shot Bambi, but it was more akin to a mercy killing after he injured himself again on the weekend. Thanks for never giving up Mora and best of luck for your future.

Gutted guys. This kids potential had no boundaries. Absolutely devestating ruck.
Hope he can move on now

I can't imagine that they would they be happy to "sit" on him for as long as it takes to recover from his upcoming quad surgery.

Dont take me seriously, nobody will be willing to take a risk on him . He might go and do a coaching course now . Might be a coaching prodigy you never know. J .lo as an example.
Thanks for the kind sentiments and I had to laugh at your signature.....just couldn't help myself.
So sad.
Just like Pav, Morra gave it absolutely everything he possibly had, for as long as he possibly could... he can walk away proud.
Good luck for whatever's next morra - your perseverance will take you far.

he was good and he had all the skills. Gutted when he was injured in 2011.
sad way to end it. I am hoping one day he can come back to us as an assistant coach.

Champion in my eyes mate. Someone who continued to have disappointment after disappointment. Constantly kept on his rehab and tried to get back. Hopefully he can get his body right and enjoy whatever he does in life. All the best.
