Great news about all 3. Morley will be 35 when his contract expires but I bet he'll still be in top condition.

pff, totally wrong, don't ya know, morley was finished in 06 when we signed him.

Yeah i heard his arm/wrist was barely attached to the rest of his body

They've not. Still showing McCarthy.

Firstly he was Bridge and now he's Harrison.

Sorry should have expanded on that to say tip top condition for a past it, has been warrington player.

Great news and a reward for their hard graft this year.

wonder where Harlequin Gooner is now with his Bridge nonsense?!!!!!!

I bet Moz is still our stand out player in his last game of 2012.
The bloke is absolutely superb and the best front rower we've had since Sir Leslie imo. Already a Wire legend.

Totally agree with this, in all honesty i would possibly go as far as sayinging he's the best front rower we've had in all my time watching wire ( 31 yrs).... This is our best signing of the off season

..

Ps . Where did all those people go who were saying Mozza was past it when we signed him.

He's good, but he's not as good as Boyd.

Top stuff!
Bit concerned about Morleys age in 2012 mind, one injury can do you but if he keeps himself fit he'll still be able to do a job.
It's the other 2 im more excited about

Well its all about opinions lol, in honesty i used the word "Possibly" because its a tough call to split boyd and morley in my opinion ... but i'm just gonna side with Morley i think on this one lol.....

Completely different era, so it's hard to compare them, I'll go for Morlry because of his much heavier workload.

i suggest a quick re-watch of sir les in his pomp in the premiership final,playing the full 80 and going over from the 25 for a try at the death,if anyone thinks the game was slower back then i suggest they watch the speed of our back row and the way they competed for the full duration of the game.

Unfortunately I recorded it on Betamax! Mind you I can certainly remember the 'trampling over several Halifax players' Try.

Good news all round.

Get in there !!!! WOOOOOOP !!!

Does Morlry play for China

If Rah can be playing semi-decent till his mid 30s, no reason Morley can't do it either. Good on the club for signing Harrison for 2 years, developed well since TS came in and Bridge deserves a contract for his utility value to the squad.

So far out of contract 2010 (correct me if I'm wrong):

Briers
Higham
Hicks
Vinnie Anderson
Blythe
Cooper
Carney? (if he signs for another 12 months)
Grix? (or did he sign an extension)

Glad you think the same I watched that game a while Back and the speed of the whole pack was astounding ...it was a forwards game no doubt about it. but people Like Sally cinnamon keep telling us we are simply misty eyed and modern day players like Paleasina and gareth hagerty are fitter and more mobile and more skilfull....





but that aside Morley is without doubt a legend and deserves to be compared with Boyd any day of the week.

I think you're mixing me up with someone else biscuit. I normally come on telling everybody that the game then was better with class acts like Hanley, Gregory, Edwards, Davies and Offiah who were streets ahead of anybody around today. I've had arguments with some delusionals on here saying things like "how do you know they didn't just look good because everyone else was part time....."

The handling from the forwards in those days was a lot quicker because they had less space at the ruck so the line was in their faces, even big men had to have some guile to create space. When I was at school Mike Gregory was always held up by the teachers to us as the model of the classic loose forward, but today in SL there isn't any loose forward out of the Gregory mould who does switch passes, run arounds etc. Same with the props I agree with you there was far more skill with the ball from the big men, todays game has too much emphasis on producing battering rams who smash themselves into early retirement or burn out eg Martin Lang and Fielden.

Totally agree, Bridge is class, and Harrison could prove to be one of the best back rows in the country. They are the future of the club.

Spot on Tache.

Hear hear.

Where's the bridge hating padders?
