    This and this.

    Well done Dale.

        Congrats to the Glove - a true champion of our team. Leads by example, and quietly just gets on with the job at hand! Hope the boys can pull a great win out of the hat for you Dale - you deserve all the accolades you get!

          Absolute superstar bulldog and super consistent. Can beat any player in the league. Where would we be without him?

              This x three.

              The fact that he's also the leader in the backline in terms of organisation speaks highly of his ability to balance individual performance and team structure. An incredibly smart player who has been able to maximise his performance within the bounds of his physical limitations.

              Would have been our equivalent of Tom Harley, in essence.

                It's a joke that this guy isn't a regular in the All Australian side.
                Fearless, strong, doesn't whinge ever. Probably the most underrated player in the league. Easly the most underrated defender in the league.

                  One of the best defenders I have ever seen.

                  Pleasure to watch, one of my favourite players. Rarely makes mistakes, rarely gets beaten, always gives 110%. It's a real credit to him.

                  An inspirational leader in the way he goes about it. Would have loved him as captain.

                      My sentiments exactly, congrats Dale! Seems like a really decent person as well.

                        Perhaps the only player you don't ever think about. You just know what you are going to get every week. Quality player......and a quality person. Do we take him for granted?
                        I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

                          Yes, I think we do. He has been brilliant this year without the support from Lake and Hargrave.
                          More of an In Bruges guy?

                            Fantastic player, and I often forget how much we rely on him to really do a huge part of the defensive work. Congrats Morris, we'd be effed without you

                              I think this showed late last year when he got injured. Crippled the backline.

                                Over the course of 150 games, I reckon he's been flat-out beaten in less than 10 of them. Just a sensational one-on-one defender.
