| Had a winge about 1 signing, now a bit of praise for another.
I've been really impressed with him so far, yeah a couple of mistakes but generally he is playing really well
I like his aggressive attitude
His defence is pretty solid
I love the way he is starting to boss the other forwards around and taking it up as first receiver then passing or hitting it up.
It's a bit like what James graham done for saints, it makes him unpredictable, the accuracy of his passing was of half back standard.
Although most of our props are trying to adopt JG's style of play non of hem can really pull it off like hill

| Great future this kid. If we are to lose Moz at the end of the year, this guy isn't a bad replacement at all!

He cannot be compared in the same class as as albeit tail end career 2009 version of Morley for us. He's a decent hard working, simple prop but never an "enforcer".

Not really a comparison to be fair but he's not an enforcer, I agree there. I was thinking that when I posted, but who could fill that role? Chris Hill might not strike fear into the opponents, but he'll do alright over the years wearing the P&B.

Adrian Morley - Enforcer? Maybe in Australia or pre-Australia but never at Warrington. A great player yes, enforcer no.

Morley showed glimpses for us - Crabtree at Wembley (made him very quiet for rest of game) and Hansen - Wigan at home on the Wigan try line but that was about it.
He's getting a shirt on name alone at the moment. Carvell was our best prop last season and he's out of form. Basically we are not winning the battle of the forwards and have not all season.

| You can't judge a prop just on big hits in D, morleys meters gained are huge plus he nearly always gets a quick play the ball.
He is also a good leader and I would say his presence is felt greatly within the team.
To say he is past it is retarded, maybe not as good as he was but defo not past it!
Hill can learn a lot from moz he's defo got the aggression!

| Hill is just a no nonsense do his role prop.
All these people really blowing smoke up his like he's the 2nd coming of Les Boyd?
He's done nothing wrong and his doing his job well but the next Morley or Graham, off.

| I don't think we're seeing the best from any of our forwards at the moment. Even players like Grix who finished strongly last season are struggling. We will get better, I can't see us staying this bad all season, there is too much quality to stay bad for the season's entirety. Whilst Chris has done well (isn't this his first season at full time?), I think we'll see a lot more from him once he's joining in with a pack dominating sides. At the moment he's constantly fighting a lost battle, once players like Harrison are back and the others find form, he should look excellent.

| Young big hard English props are few and far between. Chris is one!
He has no pace but that's not a huge problem as there are many props who get by and have great careers with no pace in their locker.
I'm impressed so far.

On the Morley "meters gained" point, it's interesting to see the stats. In 2009 he averaged 134 meters per game. This went down to 124 in 2010, 100 last season and is currently 85 meters per game this season.
Tackle busts are also down from 1.5 per game in 2009, to 0.6 this.
