It's also to be remembered that whilst GM may well have given away a lot of penalties and at times seemed ineffectual (sp)he was playing in a team that was shipping 40 points per game!

You could argue any player could look better in a better team.

Yes, and was just as responsible as the rest on the field for the results.

He has missed tackles, give penalties away and had average games like the rest.

We all like morro! That's not in question. There are just split opinions.

1. Morro has carried the team, can still produce the goods next year.

2. Morro has had a year mixed with good performances, average and injury. Would take a quota and be one of higher earners, where this money would be better spent elsewhere on the squad.

I have a genuine question about the Morrison situation.

If he signed a new one year contract but it stated in the contract he was responsible (not helping out) for some coaching duties, say he was offered a one year player assistant coach role would his full salary impact the salary cap?

And i'm pretty sure he stated in an article recently that he has come off quota now as well.

its funny people on here think Dowes is a good signing and Morro is over hill pointless to keep. You really can't make it up people defending Morro its pointless. The fickle police have made their minds up. If you are a 2nd rower in a top team you dont make as many tackles as morro would they have played 21 games this season in a team like ours?? I think for is age in a team like ours he is far from past it !It was a cracked bone in the hand when he was out for 6-8 games its not like his ligaments and knees have gone.

First Ali (impact), now Dowes (a prop) you compare Morro to... Different roles and in Dowes case different position. You really are on the Morro love bus aren't you icon_wink.gif.

I would try and reason that the positions which Glenn plays are covered well and with depth but you prob will ignore and post another comparing Morro to Dale Morton ...

I don't recall anyone saying that; the facts are that GM has been a great captain for us but his contract has expired - if he isn't re-signed, it's because he doesn't fit into our plans going forward. It's not a great conspiracy, or a slight to his honour, it's just business.

Let's just clear a few points up hey.

1)Morro is not on the quota, he's been taken off it
2)He had a couple of average performances by his standard just before he was out injured, what people don't know is he played 2 games with broken ribs and a broken hand, nobody knew about the ribs because they didn't want to give the clubs we were playing somewhere to hit. (played injured because he didn't want to let his mates down)
3)I know he would take a pay cut to stay at wakey
4)Look at his injuries, they are all freak things, not like he has a bad knee or leg problem.

My question is : knowing the above and the quality he brings would you offer him a year deal.

Morro staying depends on who we sign next week i think. With Southern, Ali, Frankie, Washbrook and PJ on board and Kirmond and Raleigh rumoured/likely there may not be room in the back row for Glenn.

My question is


Yes i think that if we can afford/fit him in he should stay, he adds a quallity to the squad both on and off the field and is the right type of bloke to have around young players.

Solomona played busted and went beyond a wage slip to save us but quite a few still think he just jumped ship and walked away, thats the side of players thats often overlooked from the terrace.

I know Morro as played many games when he should not have through injury, but he did.

I can see kirmond moving into with our lack of which could open a spot a SR. However, with Lauititi, Southern, Big Frankie and PJ with Trout and Spiers coming through I don't see where Morro will fit. Plus we need to reinforce our three-quarters, halfs and props.
