That last tackle. He earned his next year on that lone. That had to be the highlight of the season.

He has deserved his starting spot after taking from De Gois. De Gois in my opinion has just gone down hill this year. I'd love to see his stats on forward passes from dummy-half alone, as it seems to be a regular error. Morris' runs from the ruck and his organisation has been top notch for nearly the whole season and I think the Sharks seem to play much better when Morris is on the field.

Before you all start slagging the guy, I'll say that it WAS an incredibly stupid play by him an it was probably forced by desperation, however if he didn't tackle the marker Gal wouldn't have gotten to the ball.

Yeah exactly and we've got to remember we wouldn't have even been in this game if it wasn't for Morris.

he was trying to get back to the play the ball, can't blame him for that, I think he was also helped by the manly player taking a dive, but you really can't argue with the decision, the manly knock on awarded try now there's another matter, but take away the 4 points and we still lose lol only lolling cause I am acting like a cowgirls supporter

Jmo isn't the problem, he ****ed up and potentially cost us a win or golden point, but in the whole he's good. I ****ing hated him in that moment though. Our problem remains our backline. Unless we can get better centres and a better winger we won't resolve these issues.

well hopfullu leuatelli (spelling) will come back next year, we missed him, and we really need to jag Fergo back, stick pom in the 2nd row and for **** sake put gal at prop so he just runs the hit ups.

Saves us one week kills us the next. Oh well

It was a silly thing to do, no need to have grabbed the manly player. I'm still proud of the boys and not going to be death riding anyone tonight

Pomeroy needs to go that's for sure, but for me it's up in the air with Wright.

One moment he can have that moment of individual brilliance like tonight with his try, but the he'll make a dumb mistake like not passing the ball to Feki. The guy plays a "better safe than sorry" style and avoids the sideline at all costs, which can be handy in regular season but when it's finals and you're teams down, you need to take your chances.

I dunno, I won't be upset if he's one of the centres next year, just as I won't be upset of Leutele replaces him.
