But as i'm unwilling to name a source i don't expect anyone to believe me.
Do you think he would go?
If the offer was made, which looks a bit less likely at the moment, you'd have to think it'd be tempting. I think they've come through their much anticipated transitional period with very little turbulence and have another good crop of youngsters. With Cunningham retiring and if Graham went to the NRL, there'd still be challenges, but it is certainly one of the best opportunities in SL. Career wise, despite some of the hysterical reactions to us being so poor at the moment, Morgan must still have a lot of credit in the bank with Rovers fans and board. He'd be starting from scratch at Saints. If he wants to build a legacy and 'be Alex Ferguson', he should stay at Rovers (assuming we continue spending close to the cap). There is going to be an opportunity to reshape the team on a completely level playing field over the next few years. If he wants to 'be Mourinho', or is worried about becoming stale, he should probably go. Sorry to fall back on football analogies.

Please please take him he has gone as far has he can too many favourites. He has lost us more games than the players have. Well will he learn to play them in there right positions.I have never seen a rovers team play so bad as they did only Ben Cocayne had any sort of go in him. They play like they dont care the body language looks like "Im a celebrity get me out of here" the quicker the better

Any chance of anyone getting a bit of perspective?
Under Morgan, Rovers have improved year on year, until this year which doesn't actually finish until September or (not that we'll be involved) October.
This year we've already beaten St. Helens, Warrington and Leeds. We've also seen some awful performances.
As a coach you can only work with the players you've got, fair enough, they're Morgans players so he has to take the blame. However, we all know that getting players to come to Hull as a city is often a pretty tough ask and no doubt we've paid over the odds for some of ours, we're also a yet to be fully established in Super League mid table side so if one of the bigger clubs come in for a player we're in for we're going to have to out bid them.
The best clubs have stability from years of being in this division and are able to only have to change three or four players in the off season as well as bringing through their own youth. We've had, until this last off season a huge turnover of players, they're not all going to turn out to be the signings you expect in terms of quality and working within the group.
Given that Morgan will have long term ambitions to coach in the NRL he would be mental not to go to Saints to work with arguably the most talented group of up and coming players in Super League, at Super Leagues most successful club, in a brand new stadium.
Frankly, the way the fans are moaning on because we're in a bad run you couldn't blame him for going. Hardly grateful and supportive for everyone to get on his back when we hit our first real hurdle following almost four years of progress at a club that's been in the doldrums for twenty odd years is it?
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.
I dont want it to happen, nor do i expect it to. However, it would enable us to get Justins salary off the books possibly get a bit of compensation from St Helens and then appoint James Webster to return as coach alongside Andrew. It wouldnt necessarily be a bad thing for Rovers.
