Listening to the game on radio but I have already gone on record here that J-moz has all the attributes of a great FB. Then again I have mentioned Folau, Hoffman and Templeman too!

He needs a whole off season the position though; where he can lose some weight and work on his ball skills, positioning and agility.

Don't know if he wants to be there long term... or if Hasler wants him long term either.

It is half-time and he scored a try, set up a try for Perrett. Made 143m which is an excellent stat.

Just needs to work on his endurance as its completely different type of fitness required by a centre compared to a fullback and his positioning in defence / bombs. But remember when Barba first came into grade? He had to improve all those things too. Good thing for us is that they can all be improved with time and experience. He has all the skills to be a great fullback, just as good as Ben imo.

Just positioning from kicks and attacking the high ball. In attack he is excellent with offloads and support around the ruck.

only problem is Josh only likes to play in centres... thats the reason he left St George.

Josh hates playing any other position.

Another couple of games at 1 and he will start to take similar form to GI just like i said in other posts - we dont need to buy anyone, its him or Lafai so at the moment Lafai to center and Morris to fullback is how it is panning out.
Even though they clocked off a little in the last 15 they did turn up today which is good to see, next week we step it up another gear.

If he was to move to fullback, will this affect his chances of getting picked for NSW as a centre?

Didn't affect Inglis' chances of getting picked for QLD.

Morris just needs to work on attacking the ball in the air and positional play in defence and he'll be great (little extra fitness wouldn't hurt either)

We all wanted Lafai in the team. It looks like thing's may just fall into place for the better. As someone posted above, he has all the attributes of GI just needs some moulding and fitness.

J Moz improved a lot from last week. If he can keep it up he can be a top fb. Still needs a lot of work in defensive positioning and defending kicks but his attack was on song today.

Edit: To those that say he only wants to play centre (I think everyone thinks that) he said in the post match interview that he's happy to play where Des thinks its best for the team.

Ffs, If someone as "smart" as Barba can learn the fullback position, Im sure Morris will have no problems..
