| Moz was always one of my fave none Warrington players in his Leeds and NRL days. Its been a privledge to see him in the Primrose and Blue playing well and helping bring success to the club.
Absolute warrior and top pro .. I hope his last 2 years at Salford are injury free..

| I do tend to look at the club through primrose and blue tinted spectacles but I like to think that, as stated somewhere else on the forum, the club is letting Moz and Gaz leave with dignity, not announcing their replacements before we have had a chance to thank them both for their fine contributions over the last few years.
No doubting that both will be warmly welcomed back when visiting with their new clubs and fair to say that they were top blokes both on and off the field and helped turn around the alleged brewery filled underachieving aura that surrounded the club prior to their arrivals.
Good luck to them both.

| He's always been my favourite 'non Wigan' player and is a living legend. He has beaten our pack before we've even started games against Wire at times these past 7 years through a sheer intimidation factor. The Wire pack as a whole have played well against us but this bloke has been the catalyst.
Saying all that I think the time is right. He's not playing as much and his influence isn't as great. We certainly haven't looked intimidated by him this year and that's the first time I can remember that to be the case which says to me he's winding down.
It's a nice way to end his career tbh.

| Absolutely gutted ! But sadly we all knew it was coming.
Moz has become a legend in his own playing era.
He has gone from being a fiery, hot-headed almost lethal young hit-man, maturing into one of the most sensible, reliable leaders in the game.
He was both feared and respected by peers in both hemispheres.
How many current players can distract the opposition simply by being on the field ? Just the threat.
We have some good young forwards in the club and there are many more in SL and the NRL.
But a replacement for Moz ? Thats going to be a very tall order. Moz is something of a throw-back to the hard days. They just don't make 'em like him any more !
Well played Moz !!
Thanks for the memories and every best wish for the future.

| So who is to replace Moz?
Also who've you got coming in instead of Carvell & Cooper?
That's real quality leaving, what are the rumours re their replacements?

| Have been incredibly impressed with his discipline since he joined us. I think he's only ever been son binned once..... Might be wrong on that.
Although my favourite memory was him against Castleford a few years back. McGoldrick stood on his hand as he was playing the ball so Morley just stepped forward and gave him what looked like a nothing slap. Next thing Mcgoldrick was all over the place and M Monas was sending the next 2/3 runners straight at him.
It wasn't something anyone picked up on and could only see it in the corner of the TV screen when it happened.

And Michael Monaghan too I would imagine - out of contract and struggling with fitness.
After watching Higham and Wood perform on Monday I would love to see both of them signed up for next year. With no additions our props would probably be Hill, Wood, Harrison and possibly Westwood with Higham and Dwyer at hooker. I would like to see an additional hooker and prop come in.

| Morley gone is an apt title. He's finished as a player and carries no impact at all.
It's a terrible signing for Salford, a nice PR piece, but he'll offer them nothing next season bar a professional attitude. One has to shudder at the wages he'll be on at Salford as well.

| Great player only really apprecited him when signed for us. Lots of cap space freed up I suppose.
We need a new front row to match Moz, Monas and Carv in their prime

We have signed Anthony England from fev, so that's one more prop in the mix.

If all he offers them is a professional attitude then he will be well worth the money. The word 'professional' hasn't been used at that Club for many years.

| A great player and a brilliant bloke to boot. Sorry to see him go but he'll always have primrose and blue running through his veins. Remember Moz, once a Wire always a Wire. Good luck at Salford.

Bloody 'ell.
We've gone from Ginger Scouse being Moz's replacement, to a Karen Carpenter soundalike, in one sentence.
I hope she can put up with Ryan Bailey's "intimidatory" tactics

| This is good business for all concerned.
Without getting to misty eyed, we've all got to realise that Moz isn't the man he used to be. That nasty eye injury (iirc) of 2011 has knocked him back a bit, and he just hasn't hit his own incredible levels of performance, since. Still one of the leagues best props, though.
Still, an AWESOME player, who we've managed to keep for SEVEN seasons. He's well deserved to be mentioned in the same breath as other players from our illustrious history.
Enjoy your retirement by the Ship Canal

| Really enjoyed watching Morley play and delighted he leaves with, at least, 4 medals.
Good luck in semi retirement Morley.

| Firstly, yes thanks to both Moz and Gareth for being a big part in the success of the club, recently. Sadly, neither is the player they were so it's good business by the club, and a good dealsfor the players.
What I think is undeniable now is that the clubs primary recruitment focus needs to be a real, brutal enforcer in the pack, the kind to put a few opposition forwards on their hind quarters and make them think twice about coming that way again.
Hill has been a superb aquisition but he is not that sort of player; neither is Wood who incidentally was asolutely brilliant against Wigan. The backrow of (choose from) Westwood, Waterhouse, Grix, Harrison & Currie oozes work ethic, hard-yards and no shortage of class, whilst Higham should be the senior hooker ahead of Dyer and perhaps Darryl Clarke.
So, step forward some raw-boned, no-nonsense handful of a prop. Hockian thugs need not apply, ability to score tries and offload not essential but ability to scare the sh*t out of opposition packs mandatory.

This is so disrespectful to a Legend of the game. I have always had a smile at your cheeky posts but with this you have let yourself down.
