Can’t post article now but SMH reporting Morris to be cut loose by Souths
Tigers chief executive Justin Pascoe, whose chief financial officer phoned the NRL to make sure there were no cap implications with the Beefeater, told this masthead: “We all know Luke loves cooking. He said as much during a podcast he did with us. Rather than give him a ball or another signed jersey, why not give him something he will use?
Luke has a ute, and I was hoping he’d fire up the barbie and start a tailgate party in the CommBank car park after the game.”
Lol is this real?
Yes - copied from the SMH
The content about the tailgate - I think is Pascoes sense of humour? (At least I hope so) But those types of jokes don't translate in print media
If he was serious - then he's lost it

In today's press conference Demetriou said Morris would see out the year. Seems like a formality that he'd be leaving Souths though if there has been a blow up as is rumoured.

Morris is a good move, probably should have been Madges replacement originally
Now the rumour mill is starting a Papali'i and Utoikamanu back to Parra run. Anyone heard anything apart from the rumour from Riccio?

Does this open the door for Robbie to move to football management role?
@jedi-tiger I wanted that as well .. the interesting thing is the Sharks have really done no better after the grubby way they axed him to bring in Fitzgibbon ! This is a very good appointment make no mistake a real positive.
@canberratiger Why would they want to go back to Parra that crap club’s premiership window is well and truely closed .I could add my perception of those two so far this season but it’s a positive day in Tiger town today maybe another day !

It was completely made up by Riccio IMO. He has caught the old 360 bug where journos put 2 and 2 together and claim 7 is the correct answer. It was an opinion comment that he thinks there could be a move by Parra.
Morris is an excellent pick up
@canberratiger no way uto goes back to parra . His family hate the way they mismanaged his brothers career .
it sounds like Parramatta eels doing thier usual caper of trying to agitate the tigers to get our players .
If we get O’Neil in the front office , we have all of a sudden gone from a bit of a laughing stock in regards to our football department , if only in experience , to a really really formidable team. Even with Benji lacking experience .
This is some really positive moves lately
