Dude, he was one of our better players tonight.
If you couldn't see that, you are blind.

He put in his 100% effort, unlike 14 of 17 players out there tonight.....

 

[Noise]

He did nothing. He didn't make a mistake but he did not provide anything of note either.
Remember how much he is being paid.

Add Tahu too...

If you put me in the side i would give 100% as well but i dont have anywhere near the talent to be out there neither does morts 100% effort is no good unless you have the talent to go with it

Funny that, considering we only started playing well and putting in when the last 10 minutes started :roll: He was good tonight, made no errors, did nothing wrong, played his heart out and nearly created a couple of opportunities that were snuffed out by our lack of support-running.
Did you notice how many tackles he ducked under? Did you notice how many line-breaks he nearly set up? I certainly did, and we was right up there whenever a kick was made.

Of course, he wasn't great, but he was certainly one of our better players.
He is being paid a lot because he had a brilliant first year. How can you blame him for that? It's called second year syndrome, being low on confidence through sledging and being moved to a position that he would never adapt to.
;-)
Great work mate.

Surely you have seen last year's brilliance and, when he has been on song, his great touches this year?

I will quote Parra Pete here;

"Form is temporary. Class is permanent."

Talent doesn't disappear.

 

[btaag]

Isnt Timana Tahu on a back-loaded contract of about $400k a season for the next 2 years? Correct me if I am wrong, but if this is true (even $300k), now is the time for your tears.

There are 5-10 players at any club on $200k, big deal.

We are going to have to agree to disagree here,yes i saw him play last year as did most ppl on here and you would have to agree that most of that form was on the back of Hayne i truely do hope that i am wrong and he comes out and kills it next year.

I agree. His form last year was the temporary part. The way he sold ozzy for 250k was all class

 

[bartman]

Morts form and talent is just like the Parra Stadium ground announcer - only good when we're winning. Otherwise very annoying.

:lol:
Pretty funny I'll admit.

Still, he debuted before our dream run (whilst we were still losing), and a lot of people last year actually gave him the accolade of sparking our first few wins; the first two games of the run were against the Storm and the Dogs, I think.
He was magnificent against both, and if I remember correctly was the spark for us winning those two games; of course after those two it was all Jarryd.

Still, there's a difference between individual brilliance and playing off the back of the team's form, and you could tell that some of his stuff last year was definitely individual brilliance. I can understand the criticisms for this year, I just hate it when people say someone is 'useless'; in my opinion, it completely destroys the sense of fans supporting their team and players through tough times.
Way I see it, we support Burt, Hindy, Hayne and all through their tough times, why don't we do that with Mortimer? Is it because of his name?

 

[Djay]

Up until now I've been willing to give Morts time but tonight was just so so so frustrating. He may be good with a decent half along side him but otherwise his useless. He can't even pass FFS and his our 5/8.
