He must be referring to when Mort broke through and the French winger tripped the outside Leigh player.

Mort is young and enthusiastic. He is a great goal kicker and in a couple of seasons time when he realises how good he can be we will reap the benefits.

At Gateshead however I,d keep him on the wing.

Widnes also linked with Halifax also linked with Gavin Dodd! Don't see why they after a full back with Greenwood on board!

Plus in Yates we have a full back very similar to Mort!

I will boldly predict ian will sign a new 2 yr deal by thurs of this week

heard he had signed it already at the request of ian millward

Morty Signs a 1 year extension to his current contract today, await the news from A Parky!!


Millward has spoke too him and wants him!!

Watch this space.....

The Rugby League Weekly has already announced it.

Ah well maybe we want him to get another full season under his belt 1st

How anyone can call Ian i dont know,he is the second highest try scorer and a damn good kicker to boot,and i for one will be very pleased when he signs .Playing under Millward will only improve him,we must keep our young players letting him go would be a huge mistake .

Well they managed to slag off our best points scorer in 'Turls' since John Woods, its the Leigh disease why say one good word when you can say a dozen bad ones.

I like his enthusiasm and he just loves to score points whether thats scoring a try or kicking goals plus when he plays at FB you can see him looking for the ball every play just like Turley .I know he has alot to learn but he is young and learn he will from the master IM.

definitely a keeper..however with a stronger squad next season we should be able to rotate him and he wont be in the spotlight as much..he is still learning his trade and it would be foolish to cast him aside now..

Think a lot of people forgot just how old he is. This is his first full season as an established first team player, and against a lot of teams, is a marked man, yet he still manages to touch down quite regularly and often puts in a flawless performance with the boot. Anybody know of any finished articles in the fullback position at his age? The positional play which at times he lacks, only comes with experiencing different situations in the actual game. you cant teach this in training, nothing you can simulate in a session comes close to matchday. Glad we've kept hold of him, he can go as far as he wants. If he was 26-27 and still making the same mistakes, i'd be worried, as it stands, im pleased with having a promising young leyther playing for his home town and with no shortage of passion too.

Exactly ,playing at FB you cant escape the attention and with it being his 1st season at this level maybe it would have been better to ease him in but with the squad we have got this was not possible .

Heaven help Nanyn, if he starts kicking goals and scoring masses of points!

well Im well pleased with this signing

is it official then?

Hope its true that he has signed.

Develop, nurture and gain the rewards

According to Reporter he is signing/signed ,mentions him along with Danny Meekin.

heard he were definately signing sometime this week so fingers crossed!

It's always good, when playing a French team, to have a player called Death.

official now top bloke morty thank god you signed again

looking more and more i'm buying a season ticket again

can you stay sober long enough?

12 month contract and option for further 12 months - best deal all round for both club and Ian.

Thanks to the club for perservering with this talented, committed leyther and bring it on Ian, well done lad
