To be fair to Morgan and the Cowboys, at the time JT was out and they were looking to the future and he basically carried them through the finals.

It made sense at the time to throw the bank at him.
I was jealous of the signing at the time. Can’t fault the cowboys’ decision based on info available.

But with his form (and admittedly injuries) it’s hard to argue he’s been good value.

We are making up the numbers anyway, i can see us losing our next 3 games quite easily.
Maybe. But I think you’ll make finals. And to go from the spoon to the 8 is a pretty fair achievement.

Most important is to build on it again next year. Your 9 and 6 are rookies and should be better for the experience. And you’ll keep most of your squad intact.

To his defence, he’s playing with one of the worst backlines you’ll see and regularly been paired with the ass man in the halves

Thats fair, but I still expected more leadership from him. That run in 2017 was as good as I’ve seen from a halfback.

True but i can't ever seeing us be contenders under Bea Arthur, He is an effort coach and when the teams effort isn't quite there he has no idea what to do. He has no plan b whatsoever.

f**k me dead ... great defense my ass ... Cleary does close to nothing in attack , his dump offs and dummy once and second man plays are so predictable

Bald coaches with no plan b.

Sounds horribly familiar.
