| Morrison would bring so much more than just a player, get him signed up.

| Huge mistake to let him go, paid a heavy price for our bizarre antics in the player market, him and especially Menzies being the world-class cockups.

I have a lot of sympathy with that sentiment. However, how much would you pay him? Say he wanted £250k p.a. would you pay him that? Given the little matter of a salary cap, which Hood said he expected we would be fully utilising? And who would go to accommodate?

If he's so keen to come back, and given his advanced years, surely he would be prepared to listen to a sensible and modest offer.

| Morrison is exempt from non-fed trained quota due to already being here when the quota was introduced. he only needs a overseas quota spot. We currently have two of those free with neither sammut or lulia counting on overseas quota.
assuming sammut gets a dispensation we would still then have a full overseas spot available.
I'd give him a 1 yr deal playing with an assistant coaching role. Providing financial side could be made to fit under cap its a no brainer.

You'd think after all this time he'd have had all the coaching he needs...

Maybe he would indeed - although any package would still probably be far from negligible, I suspect. But my point remains - we can't go round signing up people unless we have cap space (and quota slots) free, and they represent value for money, no matter how keen we are!
Remember that ALL of a player/coach's package counts under the cap. So I guess you'd need to cuat a deal where we agreed to pay him £5 a year for one year as a player, and he coaches for free. Oh, and someone loans him a decent amount of money to cover his living expenses etc. And then from year 2 onwards he gets £lots a year as a coach. Witha first-year "signing-on" payment that may or may not be not dissimilar to what he might otherwise have earned in the previous year as a player... To avoid cap problems. It must be possible - I'm sure Wigan and Deacs could give us some tips...?

| No way! He is too old and was way to injury prone, I heard he used to upset the apple cart at bulls with his stiring, do we want to sign another reject? If wakey don't want him why would we? Go back to Oz Glenn please!

19829_1320257469.gif Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_19829.gif |

I'm afraid to say it's a sad indicment of where we are as a club now, he would improve our squad.

| he offers a lot of what our back row are missing - experience. There's only Sibbit and Langley that are over 25 in our back row and given they both don't play every game we could do with a bit more in the team.
