Morgan Morris: The Ospreys centurion overlooked to date by Wales

Ospreys head coach Toby Booth sees Morris as “one of my own” and a shining example of an academy product.

“I’ve seen him grow and mature into a player that is now more vocal, a leader and adding different things to his game, both with and without the ball,” he said.

“You don’t get 100 caps in this league by accident and for him to do it in such a short time is a testament to him as a person and his dedication.”

Booth said the feedback from Wales is something that he too has alluded to about Morris’ game on and off the ball.

“When you move up a level to international rugby you probably need a little bit more of a well-rounded game,” he said.

“Everyone knows what he does with the ball, he’s very good at it, and he’s been working exceptionally hard so his performances against international players and top eight teams are really important.

“He was very good against the Stormers and he was very good for example in Leinster away last year, so like anything, he is a work in progress and wants to get better.

“But ultimately, as I always say, the people who pick that [Wales] side they know what they want and what they need.”
