John Morris- Last season at Parra?

[Utey]

It was emotional for you I guess. It was pretty hard to take.

Burt is like an Onion he always makes you Cry

 

[Clarkieel]

although there were tears in 2001 when we made the grand final and when we lost it *sigh*

 

[Utey]

There were players in our team that I would be worried when they got the ball. Sometimes I was worried about versing certain teams. I was scared we were going to lose again South

 

[Clarkieel]

but next year will be good no it will be better than good will be FANTASTIC

 

[Jake the snake]

There still are players in our team- i can live with the Forward pack this year its burt in the backline that Im worried about he just can't tackle.

 

[Utey]

Exactly. Lets be as optimistic as possible.

 

[Clarkieel]

yes BUrt us a worry I am in two minds about him, heart says he has always been true to Parra and even too ka pay cut to stay but his performances live a lot to be desired

 

[Utey]

He took the pay cut because he knew he wouldnt be wanted anywhere else.

 

[Clarkieel]

dont be a downer
eels are looking good for next year (until the first game )

 

[Utey]

Iam not Iam as optimistic as they come.

 

[Clarkieel]

its sad isnt it :lol:

 

[Jake the snake]

Best thing to do is to take it game by game unlike last year where we all said top 4 and well we know what happened aftert that our year ended in rd 1.

I don't think John Morris would be re-signed by Newcastle unless Michael Ennis doesn't play to the club's expectations. Who knows, he could be re-signed. Just let things be and wait till June 30 I guess.

I'd say, given the fact that Ennis is now playing for the Dragons in 2005, that Morris will be a priority then....

 

[Utey]

Didnt Ennis sign elsewhere?

They definately stood out. When he was in the ruck most hookers clear out but he deliberately hung around trying to slow down the play the ball which was to obvious. I wish we had Kidwell he does it so well and barely gets penalised.

Anotjer thing about Morris he gives the ball to the forwards at the wrong time IMO. As soon as they get the ball they are either dominated or unable to get past teh advantage line.

uummmm....we had Kidwell

but that was before a certain Brian Smith called him into his office and told him "he didn't have what it takes and wasn't what Parra wanted"

and Kidwell said that himslef in a media article......and sure at the time he wasn't going so well in the centres, but he was always a backrower with potential......but potential at Parra doesn't mean much unless you set the world on fire inyour first 3 matches??????

Oh yeah, I completely forgot about that. My bad #-o

Maybe they would make Morris a priority then huh?

Be interesting to see what happens

Back then Kidwell wasnt half the player he is now. I was merely using him as an example. Not bait for someone to have a crack at Smith.
