THANKS to Mark Gasnier's impending return to the Dragons, this is how you're likely to see the Morris twins for the rest of their careers: in opposing colours.
As revealed earlier this year, the Dragons were preparing to reclaim Josh from Belmore in 2012 - but it's now understood the joint venture simply won't have the money or space in their backline to accommodate the Bulldogs star should they snare Gasnier.
"There wouldn't be room for him if Gaz returns," said a Dragons insider. "You can't have them all."
The tryscoring duo have made no secret of their desire to reunite but will have to be content with outings together in representative fixtures.
"It was very special to play with each other for Australia [last year]," said St George Illawarra winger Brett.
"These days the only time we get to play together is during representative football so we will both be staking our claims for a NSW jersey this weekend."
Rugby league fans are bracing themselves for a tryscoring blitz tomorrow night with the pair to lock horns when the Bulldogs take on St George Illawarra at ANZ Stadium.
"I think you would have to back Brett for the first tryscorer," Josh said. "I think our brother [Scott] is filthy with me at the moment but he might put his money on me this weekend because [Brett] will be so short. I'll be hoping I get in first."
SHARKS chairman Damian Irvine has made a lightning trip to Los Angeles to service the other half of his business life - celebrity suits.
Cronulla's top administrator is in Tinseltown this week to fit out Aussie boy band Human Nature with some new threads for their performance at a top local casino.
Irvine co-owns Skin Deep, a funky suit store on Elizabeth St in the city.
NRL funnyman Liam Fulton last week had the City team in stitches, turning his talents to bookmaking.
"He was framing a betting market for everything," a City insider said.
"He's got the TAB covered. They have a few markets but Liam was framing odds for how late the bus would be and who would eat the most dinner.
"The Tigers boys were even silly enough to place bets with him."
WE'RE tipping dumped Eels media manager Ross Smart will resurrect his NRL career at Canterbury after Bulldogs PR man Frank Barrett finishes up on Friday night.
There was no shortage of confusion when Parramatta retrenched Smart at the end of last season, given his excellent work promoting the club during its fairytale finals run.
COUNTRY Origin legend Laurie Daley has predicted a bright coaching future for Cowboys assistant coach Matt Parish. Daley employed Parish to be his offsider in the build-up to last week's City-Country showdown and he could not have been happier with the outcome. "I didn't really know much about Matt when I asked him to take on the role but he was certainly the right man for the job," Daley said.
"The players really responded to him and I am sure given an opportunity, he will advance one day in the coaching ranks."
