Dragons deny Brett Morris media report

The St George Illawarra Dragons, contrary to media speculation, have not offered Brett Morris to other Clubs, nor have they suggested that he test his market value external to the Dragons.

The Dragons today reiterate that the Club has been in negotiations for a number of months to extend Brett Morris' contract at the Dragons.

Brett Morris signed a contract in 2012 for seasons 2013, 2014 and 2015 and is therefore under contract until the end of next season.

The Club understands that there are no rules that prevent player managers from talking to other Clubs about contracted players.

The Dragons are aware that another Club has offered Brett Morris more money than his contract sum at the Dragons for the 2015 season.

The Dragons announced last week the appointment of Peter Mulholland as Director of Recruitment and Retention.

Mulholland has this week begun working through the Club's salary cap and roster for 2015 and beyond, in conjunction with Head Coach Paul McGregor
