Melbourne took 4 before him and to debunk your continual anti-Port Adelaide bollocks Fremantle didn't even see him as their best bet, they took Morabito ahead of him!

The worst thing in this list for me is that Fyfe has gone on to be an elite mid and our lad has had four ACLs and has only played 20 games. He would have been ahead of Fyfe at the time he went down to I reckon.

I reckon a few recruiters would like that time again. Lucas and Tapscott, Melksham, Howard above Fyfe. I wonder what he was like as a kid - obviously not as much as he is today.

Next!
AND, Morabito COULD be a gun. Let's hope he does a Menzel and gets his body right. He could be a star.
