If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

That'll be the same player who started very slowly last season and only really showed any signs of form from about this time last year onwards.

Haven't you answered your own question? |

| Quote: barham red "What did he supposedly say?'"
According to someone last night (either on here or the Unofficial Forum, think the Unofficial), he got asked for his thoughts about the East Stand booing the decision to take Cook of straight after his great try. Morgan said something similar to 'When they're in the box they can make the decisions.' My apologies to Justin if he didn't say this, but if he did it reeks of sheer arrogance IMO. |

Yeah, he said "when they're sat in my box they can make the decisions" with a little chuckle, it got a loud cheer actually. Didn't seem arrogant, he was backed into a wall and defended himself. |

Hmm, well IMO it is still disgraceful the way he appears to base his team selection on favouritism, the guy's ruining careers with this approach. I bet Hall for one is wishing he'd gone to a club where people are treated fairly and selected on merit.
Morgan out. |

For Hall to get a game, he'd need to go to a team with poorer centres than he is. Welham has been a try machine and Webster has been outstanding, where would you play Hall? |

Probably on the wing instead of Colbon at the moment, or at least a place on the bench. |

All coaches/managers whatever the sport have their favourites. In the past Wayne Bennett & Sir Alex have been accused of favouritism |

Halls non selection is nothing to do with favouritism, its more to do with him being not very good. We have better centres and wingers at the club than Hall.
I'm pretty sure Morgan picks the team he thinks will win, unfortunately he has got this wrong too many times this year. |

Dropping a winger for a centre because you don't think he's been performing, that would ruin a career.
Besides, Colbon has been one of our best at making yards.
I didn't really agree with the Hall signing, nor do I agree with trying to shoehorn him in the squad. Goes well in the 20s. |

HOW on earth do you get NILLED at Wembley ?
When your coach isn't a winner at heart and Gentle is not a winner at heart .
We were a pub team
I coached for a long time and we won 95% of games because winning is a mental state driven by a desire to CRUSH an opposition. Did FC look as though they wanted to Crush Wigan and strangle them until they screamed ? NO
RL is a tough tough game and Maylord She-dong you have no clue
In fact don't ever ever reply to any of my posts again:37721.jpg |

Fair points Barham / Dum-Dum, just a shame we can't somehow use Hall's attacking flair.

Can't say i blame him. The standard of U-20 rugby is pitiful and i wouldn't like to be playing it either. |
