Glenn has been in great form in his first season and is a key member of Bradford Bulls Squad.

Glenn made the Super League 2007 Dream Team.

All-action Morrison, 31, has been a revelation in his first season at Grattan Stadium since joining from Parramatta Eels.

With his huge work-rate, non-stop drive and team ethic, the player has proved massively influential in Steve McNamara's side.

Bulls vice-captain Morrison has scored 11 tries in 27 appearances and made a staggering 733 tackles during the course of the season, the sixth highest in the entire competition.

The Aussie ace won many awards including the T&A Player of the Year and also lifted the coaches' award, Players' Player of the Year and Supporters' Player of the Year titles.[when?]
