Quote: Winslade's Offload "Morley is now 35. He has been a fantastic player and has done a great deal for the club at a personal level as well as on the field. He is always available to shake hands and chat to the supporters, and is a great ambassador for the club. Personally though, I feel old father time has caught him up and I can not see him playing for us next year.
However, I think the point I would like to make is that he will know when it is time to hang up the boots. He will know how hard it is to get back to the line when we are defending, he will know how many yards he makes and how many tackles he breaks etc etc. From what I know of TS, he demands honesty from the players and seeks to get them to take responsibility for their weaknesses and mistakes and to constantly improve. In that sort of environment it will be very difficult for him to ask for another year if he feels he can not deliver.
I think he will choose to retire.'"
I tend to mostly agree with you WO. Morley has done a lot of good, on and off the pitch for us and he and TS will know when the time is right to move on/retire.
I think, perhaps hopefully, that we get one more year out of each other. Not in a sentimental way, I don't think he, as a top pro' would be happy with that, but, one that sees him returning to form for the rest of this season and bowing out with us next year with some more silverware in his trophy cabinet.
Failing that, win the big two this year and give Salford a boost, can't see a retirement just yet....
