I thought Morley was excellent yesterday. Carvel a very close second.

Whilst 'Macca' was celebrating his 2nd big hit, Morley was up and had offloaded the ball.

They were great shots, but Morley was up in a flash, showing him who was boss. He was brilliant, but tbh, he always is for us, it's some of the rival fans who like to make out he is past it and we have signed another bum.


Morely played superbly yesterday and regardless of how quickly he got up from the hits, how often have you seen him put on his booty like that?

The fact that afterwards he was making every effort to get one back on Macca, clearly shows that Macca gave him something to think about, I don't know why that should appear contentious.

No he didn't but don't let that stop you making things up. He got a standard play the ball in nothing special and the markers (Aizue and Wheeldon) were in position

Big hits are great for the fans, and for showing an opposition player who is boss. Did 'Macca' then go on to show his superiority and boss the game? No. Did Morley? Yes.

I have acknolwedged they were great hits, but they mean nothing ultimately, when Morley ends up single handedly taking your pack to the cleaners.

Having watched again, they were in position. Although after the quick play, the defence wasn't back and set as quickly as it would have been had Aizue not vexed about sticking his knees in and actually completed the tackle. This allowed Warrington to make good ground and offload. They balls it up at the end of the set, but Rovers were still under pressure for the remainder when, had Aizue just completed the tackle, they may well not have been.

Those two hits on Morley weren't as big as they looked because the way he went over had as much to do about Morley being off balance when he was hit.

Morley and Carvell both seem to be thriving under the coaching of Tony Smith.

And thats a lovely picture but where was he when Morley went through and set up the pivotal try of the game.

Like I said earlier, credit to Aizou but Morley got up and played every other forward off the park.
