Morrison so close to being a Bull
Glenn Morrison has revealed to the Townsville Bulletin just how close he was to signing with the Bradford Bulls and finishing his career in England.
"If the Bradford (three-year) offer had've been down on paper and the entry visa guaranteed a week earlier I would have gone to Bradford," Morrison revealed yesterday.
"But I've still got hopes of playing Origin and I want to play 200 first-grade games."
Morrison said he was looking forward to playing for the Eels and under Parramatta coach Brian Smith, who was his Country Origin coach in 2001.
"They've got a good team and they've got some good signings," Morrison told The Townsville Bulletin. The story said that Morrison's contract is understood to have a clause enabling him to leave Parra in the final-year of the three-year deal.
