Toast Morabito tracking thread

[Gekko71]

This is the bit that excites me.

He has said in the past, Mora will make a comment in his own time.

Mora has ticked off 5 games of WAFL and I thinks his body is ready. Skills will be rusty, so we need to lower expectation of his impact though.

Well said Seppo - Morra returning is much like losing your virginity, you build it up in your mind, but it might not be as good as you expect - all the other occasions that follow it however more than make up for it

Who is the best metaphorical kick of the footy you have seen?
On a serious note, Darren Jarman was the best kick of the footy.

Please explain how my use of the word "literally" is incorrect in this situation.

Losing your virginity is like when the US navy ship docks. Before you know it there is Seaman everywhere.

It's not incorrect, just superfluous

He has just about every quality required to be a good inside midfielder, plays somewhat similar to jobe. There is a lot of potential and its very exciting, but since he plays such a physical game the knee injuries concern me. I really hope everything works out for the lad.

Maybe start as sub and continue as sub for 1-2 rounds after that, we'll see how he goes.

At least he won't have to do too much to improve on the impact of our subs in the last two weeks

Are there any precedent cases in AFL where a player has come back from 2 or 3 knee reco's and ended up having a decent career?

Malceski is one I can think of but not sure how many he had and to which knee(s)?

Shauny Mac, had two on the same knee a year apart and came back and played over 200 games.

 

[beetz]

of course!

What's wrong leeloo it might be a sign or a precedent...Merely a precursor to the EMPEROR'S ASCENSCION:First player to have 3 Premiership medals after 3 knee reconstructions.

Ha, ha I like your thinking!

Thats a good point. Ive looked at lars and it seems to be pretty good for the next 15 or so years, the tendon is supported by an articficial material. Wait im going on a tangent, good comment.

So both Seven and Nine news are running stories about Mora's possible comeback after Lyon talked him up as close to playing. Something is brewing here fellaz.

The club wouldn't let him do this type of media without something significant in the works

i was just thinking this myself, 7 news even went so far to ask him after his tribunal hearing, couldn't wipe the smile off his face!
just hope he actually does get a game and they are not just playing with our minds! ha

You did not need it. Merely an extra word.
You could have used , definitely, clearly, undoubtedly or even that overused word absolutely to emphasize that he is the best kick you have seen.
He either is or he is not a great kick. His kicking is literally majestic.

 

[Fred Ziffel]

I bet Mora is named as one of three emergencies that will also include Michael Barlow.
Any suggestions on the third ?

I am thinking Apeness.

If we're gonna start chipping people on syntactic/semantic brevity and economy there's gonna be a lot of superfluosness on here.

 

[Zacy boy]

Even in the "talking points" on the freo website, I doubt they would be advertising it if it wasn't a real chance!

Unnecessary. Is that succinct, enough ?
The bloke asked a question and it was answered.

 

[scon]

Is a joke Fred. I was meaning lampooning the original poster for misusing the term 'literally'. Capisce?

Sorry Fred Ziffel wasn't having a go just a general comment that I don't have an issue with the way pokerspiv expressed himself.

Yes.

Is that similar to a flat white ?

 

[Fred Ziffel]

I like you liked it .
Back to the football.
