If he's on a 4 yr deal I will predict that the coach leaves the club before he does!!

Accordind to teletext Mr Morley chose Wire because Wigan are in a little trouble at the moment?, Yeah right, was it not down to the fact that Wigans offer was for maybe just 2 years?, Someone has already posted on here that he was probably offered more money at Wigan but only for the 2 years, So he chose the Wire deal (spot on who ever said that), Surprise surprise Promrose and Blue showing his face?.

So that was the rock you were hiding under.

It's funny; when I saw the articles on sporting life I could have sworn he would sign for Hull KR...

I think that was me but it was pure speculation on my part but I really don't think Wigan would offer a 30 year old player a four year deal never mind on the kind of money being banded about regarding Morley's contract.

I would think they have offered him four years money for possibly two years work and I agree with Wigan’s decisions to only offer him a shorter contract.

O no a positive post by me, what’s going on.

Come on Dave agree with me, you know you want too.

Very few clubs, ourselves included, offer 4-year deals to new signings of any age. Of our current squad, only Danny Orr is on that length of contract, which might explain why 2 or 3 years is the norm!
Big mistake by Wire, IMO. I'd have loved to have seen Morley in cherry & white, but only for a year or 2, with maybe an option to extend.

I think DV is also on a four year deal, which just adds weight to your theory of course.

Yes that is the sort of deal I would have gone for. Morely must be made up to get a top income up until age 34.

Be funny if Wire got relegated next season and he had his contract cancelled!
