Anyone know if Morris is definitely signing ??

Would have though with him living in Swindon when in UK he would have already put ink on the contract. Having said that I do appreciate he flew home to Aussie with his mates Brady Kurtz & Josh Graz, after the Poole A.Dhabi jolly up, so may not have got around to it yet. Having said that he did get announced by Masarna this morning in SWE so one would have thought he has been active on the Contract front.

You seem very interested in Morris.  I’m sure you will find out in good time and put you out of your misery.  He will have signed a contract before he flew home and it will be announced in due course.  Who that’s for we will all have to wait and see!

Morris had a poor season because he was riding in a position he wasn't ready to ride at. Exactly the same with Brady Kurtz. Neither rider is a No.1 at the moment. Far too much pressure on both Aussie boys. Morris will have a great season in 2019 if he returns to Swindon because Doyle will take all the pressure off Nick's shoulders in the big Heats. If Matt Ford can get a reliable No.1 in then the same will happen with Brady Kurtz. I can see both riders ending up with a 8.00 average next season. 

Nothing to do with being #1, the track at Swindon was dreadful last year - Morris came off on his own far too often for a rider of his calibre and it was all down to the condition of the track, he wasn't happy all season and it showed in his performances, body language and he alluded to it during interviews. The rumours of him leaving started in the summer with suggestions he was off to Wolverhampton surfacing in August, no doubt he was vocal about the situation at Swindon regarding the track to staff/management/riders of Wolverhampton and someone has suggested 'come ride for us', given how well he's performed there the last 2 seasons i'm sure that idea appealed and the seeds are planted, however given his attractive 6.60 average, he'll be on every clubs radar and you can bet your bottom dollar Poole have tapped him up during the end of season Play Offs and subsequent trip to Dubai and whilst I know nothing, my money is firmly on him turning out for the boys in Blue. :(

Confirmed that Bellego won’t fit due to the averages. Very unfortunate but hopefully he gets a team elsewhere. This could suggest that Adam & Nick are in our side. 

Not unexpected but he did a good job for the team for the last two years - better than anyone anticipated!

i going to throw this out here.... 

Let's assume Nick signs on the proviso of a new track, and he turns up at P & P and the track is still as it is? He's going to feel let down isn't he!

let's hope all is above board with this as i reckon he will return to form with JD back home. Like people have said above, JD taking some pressure off his shoulders.

David Bellego has been released, which seems to indicate they pretty much have the side sorted.

Come on Matt. Work your magic with Morra. Gem on that average.

Probably already been poached by Wolves.
