We can still make the eight: Morris
Parramatta hooker John Morris has said that despite the Eels injury problems and inconsistent form, the team can still make the final eight.
"There was a period where we let ourselves down by losing four games at home in a row, that was definitely our most disappointing period of the year," Morris told The Daily Telegraph.
"Since then we've had a few good wins and we're still just narrowly in the hunt for the top eight. We can get there if we want to, it's all up to us."
Morris said that Brian Smith had yet to broach his plans for next year with Morris.
"Brian hasn't sat me down for a one-on-one yet but I came here from Newcastle to become a starting player so I'd be disappointed if I was anything else next year," he told the paper.
