| His house has been on the market for 2 months now although my source tells me that he has not been told one way or the other about a new contract yet.

What, after his big season this season, and his big season last season aswell?
Surley we can't be considering another contract for a very injury prone player who has given us less than half a season in each of his past 2 seasons.

Non of his injuries have been due to bits of him wearing out (knees and so on). They have all been caused by him showing the bravery and commitment that have been missing from some of his uninjured team mates.
I think he has just had two years of bad luck.

It's got nothing to do with with how he gets the injuries. More to the fact he gets injured, regularly.
Lots of injuries = Prone to injury = Injury Prone.

| IMO if the other 12 Bradford players showed half the passion and commitment Morrison does on the field then maybe he wouldn't have to push himself as hard as he does and go get himself injured

There is an easy way to avoid picking up the sort of injuries Morro has. Just play with the level of commitment that too many of the rest of the team have shown this season.

It's nothing to do with commitment though is it, Adey? It's just an awkward bump
Theres loads with the same level as commitment, Newton, Halley, Koppy, Menzies, Lynchy and others, they don't pick up injuries as often as Morro has over the past few years though, because they arn't as prone to injury as Glenn has become.

You are seriously joking!!!, wont attack from dummy half, swing door in defence, disappears to blind side after 5 minutes, throws out some good passes then at least one horrendous one.
So he's Commited.... to what? Fitness, tackling?

Swing door in defence? That's the joke : 536 tackles and only 45 missed tackles. And 100 marker tackles, that's a lot of work in defence.

| As I have said before, I would gamble on Morrison unless we need the quota spot to recruit a half back or centre. He has had some rotten luck with injuries and I agree would be something of a gamble but I reckon he's just about worth it.
I think players like Whitehead needs pro's like Menzies and Morrison by their side when in the heat of a battle.

You are seriously in need of some stronger specs.
What dya mean he wont attack from dummy half, he's second in the stat table for dummy half runs, if that's not attacking from dummy half then I dont know what is. How does he go hiding? he's always in the middle getting stuck in, that's why his tackle count is as high as most of our forwards, give or take a few.
So yes, he is commited, he's commited to taking the team forwards and yes he is commited to tackling the opposition aswell.

| You use stats to defend his deficiencies. Dont know why.
Carried a total of 1266 mtrs in 19 games = an average of a meagre 66 metres in a whole game
19 games. -3 tries and 2 assists, pretty abysmal for his position
Offloads 21 in 19 games. Would expect better for a player in this important position.
Misse tackle count is 3 per game.
Tackle count of 28 per game is nothing special.
When I say wont run from dummy half I nean without distance of effect. Look at the stats
And NO I'm not on a tez vendendeta, I'm telling it the way I see it in my opinion.

I'm not very good at Maths, but how do his stats compare against other hookers, my bet is he's as good as most in the league, with possibly the exception of Roby and Randall. He's a very commited player as commited as most hookers, and once again his stats illustrate this.

Probably. Tbf to him, he has been an excellent player for us, but now he is becoming too muchof a liability. He'll be one of our high earners and we can't afford to risk him being injured for basically a full season again.

That's just what we need. A player that hides out of the way so he can extend his career. It could be argued that he contributes more in haldf a season than some of the others in a whole season.

I concur. Morro gets injured because he puts his body on the line. What about the game against Cas when he did his wrist in in the first 5 mins and played all the match. Then the Warrington comeback game when he was the best man on the pitch by a mile. The guy's a legend and we would be foolish to let him walk away. But we already know we are foolish
