Now fingers crossed for Walsh.

Definitely worth a gamble for such a late pick.Comment

Good pick up, safe to say we wouldnt pick up anyone with his talent at pick 79 in the draftComment

Great trade with LOTS of upside if we can get him right. Thumbs up.Comment

Seems our recruiters are putting a lot of faith in the Swans culture.

Are any of our trades official yet? I keep updating the trade tracker and we don't seem to appear?

Gold!
I think Morton does have talent, but I still would rather we kept LJ, though. I'm kind of with Primmy on this one, I know the Swans have a great reputation for doing this but getting a player's head right is often easier said than done. I guess it's worth a shot for pick 79. Still holding out hope for Walsh.Comment

MM for 79! That's a bit suss. I mean, with the draft the way it is, Richmond must be sweating to get rid of him. OK, well I have seen him play and he can do that. I guess they will just sool Rhyce or perhaps Henry onto him to get him into line.
Be a bit daunting if you were happily traded for pick 79, wouldn't it.If you've never jumped from one couch to the other to save yourself from lava then you didn't have a childhoodComment

Isn't Morton the bloke who is a rubbish kick for goal?
Should fit in quite nicely if so...Comment

No doubt he can play but get ready for a bloke who will do your head in - i.e, have shots from impossible angles, play on when he shouldn't, fly for impossible grabs, give away silly frees etc.
At pick 79, it's worth the punt but I fear that he'll always be that way.Bloods

I think it is a good trade..He wasn't getting any chances and hence clubs tend to happy do deals for late picks they know aren't in their plans..
We always complain about our trades for recycled players yet we do tend to do well with them..Late pick no risk for us, wants a chance and alot of players seem to want to come to our club to get into our culture...
He can kick goals could easily be a 40 plus goal kicker if he plays all 22....tends to be more accurate on tighter angles and in general play. but at least a big bodied forward to help sammy out...the risk for Walsh in the PSD is if other clubs before us that might have shown interestComment

Just went to check Morton's stats on the Richmond site - he is gone already! They must have really loved him...Comment
