Glenn Morrison has won the T&A Player of the Year award for a second time.

The Aussie second-rower scooped the title during his first season at Odsal in 2007 and has done the same in his last.

Despite managing only 15 games this year (scoring five tries) due to a couple of serious injuries, Morrison’s class always came to the fore when he did take to the field.

He averaged 7.86 out of ten in the paper’s player ratings and beat off some serious competition last night at the Cedar Court Hotel.

The highly-competitive forward edged past uber-consistent prop and last season’s victor Andy Lynch (7.58) as well as fellow pack leader Jamie Langley (7.54), who took the award in 2006.

Langley didn’t come away empty-handed, however, lifting the Prized Bull award, while Dave Halley scooped both the prestigious fans’ player of the year and best back trophies. Nick Scruton was best forward.

Morrison was not the only departee to lift a prize, David Solomona taking the Community Foundation Player of the Year.

Jonny Horton was Reserve Grade Player of the Year, while the equivalent award for the Academy (the Trevor Foster Trophy) went to George Burgess.

Morrison, with his insatiable appetite for work, making tackle after tackle and taking in so many hard carries, proved a real force for the Bulls – and who knows what would have happened to their season if he hadn’t suffered such bad luck with injuries?

He ruptured ligaments in his wrist during the first minute of the match at Castleford in March but typically played on for the rest of the contest.

The injury needed an operation though and he missed the next nine matches.

Only two games into his return, and having already bagged two tries, the luckless former Paramatta star damaged rib ligaments against St Helens and was forced to endure another four-game absence.

They lost all those matches but he helped them to their first win in five when he bounced back again at Celtic Crusaders, scoring again in the process.

Morrison was then an ever-present until the end of the season, helping to shore up the Bulls defence and add more strike to their attack as they embarked on their sensational final flourish.

He moves on to Wakefield Trinity Wildcats now but boss Steve McNamara said: “Glenn has been an excellent signing for us over the last three years – both on and off the pitch.

“He is a quality player and one of the toughest around. He has been hampered by injuries this season but shown just what he adds to the team when he has been in there. We wish him all the best at Wakefield.”
