JMoz to the Sharks? Now that is a RUMOUR.....
NRL Rumour Mill says Josh has signed with the Sharks
NRL RUMOUR MILL ‏@NRL_RUMOUR_MILL 7m Rumours Bulldogs centre Josh Morris has signed with the Sharks
Vidot is a fantastic young footballer. He has enthusiasm to burn and is one of the biggest metre eaters in the competition.
I find it amusing when some of you draw attention to his defensive inadequacies without mentioning how well the incumbent Chase Stanley is fairing in that facet of the game!
Chase is defending next to a slow Fien and a young Frizzell, instead of Creagh and Soward. Experience and communication make a huge difference, having a real fullback directing them from the back will do them wonders as well.
I hope he goes to the Sharks. I don't think he is worth the money. He had a fair season last year, and a purple patch in 2009, but he has done nothing otherwise.
I have moved on from Josh Morris and I could not care less whether he returns or not. He is a decent first grade footballer, but he couldn't hold a candle to Gaz or Coops and the notion that we should never have let him go is a cop out.
The Morris name has already been tarnished by playing for the bullcheats. Absolutely gutted by that
And the Raper name tarnished by his relative playing for the scum.
Everything about Daniel Vidot is heading in the right direction.
Whilst far from his talent, his strength and enthusiasm is in the mold of SBW. He seems to have the right temperament too. I'm really impressed by how he is developing - his timing in runs and passing is getting better, error rate is reducing and is even experimenting with offloads judiciously.
He is never on the receiving end of a dominant tackle. And so he is getting the team valuable penalties not only because his strength and leg drive get to the other side of a tackler, he sucks up defenders, gets up quickly and plays the ball
= winning the ruck!
I implore Steve Price to continue to raise this kid and find place for him in 1st grade to take advantage of his attributes.
I reckon a centre / lock combo.
great post :thumn
Vidot is a mongrel as well and I think we need a loose canon in our team somewhere! He is the kind of player that will come charging in throwing round house punches into an all-in-brawl. It's warfare out there and we need him in the trenches.
