Morris Set For Sharks Switch?

The exodus out of Swansea appears to have begun in earnest, with Darren Morris being lined up for a possible move to the super 12, with Natal being His likely destination.

With the Durban based province having a shortage of props, Morris who can play on either side of the scrum would be an ideal solution for both The Sharks who are currently struggling at the bottom of Super 12 and the All Whites who are looking to reduce their wage bill.

Morris currently captain at St.Helens has been short of form as well as fitness, a move could also benefit Wales, if the prop can shed some pounds and get back into the form which saw Him go on the Lions tour to South Africa two years ago.

Such is the length of the proposed contract, Morris would return in the summer and if He does impress, I wouldn't bet against Him making Hansen's world cup considering how much were desperately short of props at the moment.
