    As a runner?

      Ha I knew that wording was ambiguous! Yeah as an x-factor - a spark. Also similar size, position and a background of improving areas of discipline.

        He's only played in 2 losses, and a some bright spark noted, on both those occasions he stated in green.

          The way we played the last three weeks I want to see all current players hold their spots unless returning players can show better form. We have just been so great and I am sure it is the way the current combination works well together. Everyone just runs in the right places relative to everyone else.

            I've had a number 10 swans jumper since '93 and I recently got Mitch to sign it. Had a good chat with him, lovely bloke. He's under no illusions as to how competitive it is for a spot in the seniors and he's determined to stay there.

            So good to see him doing well. Love watching him play, and those GF efforts, who could fault them or forget them?

Personally I wouldn't have a problem with him taking Bolton or Birds spot. Tippett being in will make life even easier for Mitch.

                  As someone said earlier, I think it's best to leave the team unchanged and force players to work their way back in and keep their spot. Based on that, Morton ain't going anywhere; he's safe.

                    Tiges and Weagles fans told me Morton was a crumby forward but for us he is a crumbing forward! We got him for his snapability on goal, set shots not so much. Morto's working on the problem though, to improve his game - as any Swan should.
