He's poo

why not always played well for us.

 

[themanonthehill]

Please feel free. He's as sh*t as any half/5-8 i've had the misfortune to watch. Including some utter spastics like John Mulvihill, Doug Delaney, Ben Black, Ben Duckworth and Lincoln Withers

i just wish themanonthehill was just there now and we would not have put up with his on going dribble

 

[madunit]

as opposed to his ongoing drivel?

 

[Tipster]

Why is he continually being switched around? I thought he was playing ok at no.7

 

[themanonthehill]

Hahaha. Yeah he was going great
Didn't know they had Foxtel in NImbin

Thought he played great in the 6 tonight, showed hes not a half. When Benji, Farah and Hodgo are doing most the work and he can just come in as more of a utility/2nd lock hes a good player.

Morris isn't that bad in the 6 at all. He is basically playing as a 2nd lock in attack anyway since hodgo plays alot of 2nd receiver and he is a solid defender. I know he isn't our best player but I reckon he is alright.

I like Morris, he gives 110% every game. Handy player to have, can hit a hole as good as anyone, and when he doesn't have to do everything, he plays really well.

 

[themanonthehill]

I never said he didn't have 100% but it just doesn't seem a perfect fit for what we need. The other big 3 are having to make up for his inadequacies. But a very very good defender which was obvious to everyone from week 1

Who would you replace him with?

Happy birthday BBE and Johnny Morris!

Yep. Basically Sheens/Ronald replaced Prince with a hooker posing as a half.

Morris is an excellent defender, can hit a hole and is a decent ball runner. Unfortunately his kicking game is usually poor, his service to our outside backs is non existent, and he is not an organiser. All things that a good half/five-eighth needs.

Morris tries his guts out and from what I've seen/heard/read is an ideal professional. I like him as a player, but he's just not a half. Its that simple. He should be playing lock or hooker, but we've got good players in those positions already - he should never have been bought to replace Prince.

How much time has 2005 bought Tim Sheens realistically. If we miss the 8 this year (which I don't think will happen - I see us getting 5th or 6th) then it would be 1 year in 5 he has made the 8. With the talent we have we should be belting garbage like the gold coast but have dropped 4 points to them. His retention and recruitment of players like Morris and Moodie (who cost us 2 games early in the season) has cost us points. He has a stubborn streak that sees players like Fitzhenry immune from getting dropped despite games like Saturday where he made 6 metres.
