Morgan may have a good rugby mind (almost everybody says this about him), and can play a bit of rugby. In my opinion, at test level, he has never been able to perform when he is up against speed and tough tackling. His super 14 season was also not up to scratch, to the point where he got side stepped by Ewen at the selection table. Pehaps that is why he is going to Queensland next season? Being a Waratah supporter, I am glad he is heading north.
Would dearly like to hear something positive from you guys at this site about MT, so that I would not get too anxious if he he took to the field replacing Mortlock or Giteau.
My pick is for Kurtley by the way.
