Morrison signs three year deal
The Eels have capped off a memorable week by signing Glen Morrison for three years, according to an article in today's Sunday Telegraph.
"I'm rapt to join Parramatta. Bradford were very keen but there's a lot keeping me here," Morrison was quoted as sating.
"Apart from my family, I want to play 200 first-grade games and I still want to play Origin football, so hopefully Parra can give me more exposure.
"Brian (Smith) wants me on one side of the ruck and Nathan on the other, with both of us going for 80 minutes."
The story also said that the Eels had taken up its option on Eric Grothe for next year and remarkably Denis Fitzgerald said there could be more signings to come.
