Quote: Eurob0y "Morley tried to smash an 18 year old mcIllorum once and came off second best and had to go off injured.
Yeah, total guv'nor'"
Oh dear. It was O'Carroll (a fellow prop) and he broke his eye socket due to making an awkward contact. Morley has tackled the biggest and the best in the world and anyone that doubts his status doesn't know rugby league.
My favourite Morley tackle was on the big stage at the NRL Grand Final when he squared things up after the Rooster's star player, Brad Fitler, had been taken out by a headbut and had blood flowing from a bad cut causing him to knock on (the tackler was then Aussie international Richard Villisanti).
When play resumed Morley steamed in, hit him with everything and rattled the Warriors, it changed the momentum of the game and showed the Warriors who was the real hard man out there.

The Roosters came from behind and won the game, with Fitler and Ricky Stuart praising Morley.rl]
