Strong talk on social media we have signed these two players. With regards Tyler its coming from Dragons supporters . Some stats with regarding the above . Tyler Morgan, aged 24 ,6ft 1in. 16st 1lb. Centre/wing 89 appearances Dragons,60 points ,Wales 5 games,5 points and Wales under 20s, 8 games and 10 points . If there is ever anyone who deserves an injury free run its this hugely talented player. Johnny Williams 23, 6ft 3in,16st 7lbs. centre. London Irish 51 appearances and 60 points. Newcastle Falcons,17 games and 5 tries . Johnny played an uncapped game for England scoring a try (So he is still Welsh Qualified). He played five games for England 20s ,scored 15 points . A great story about the Johnny! he as just recovered from testicular cancer and returned to play in January . |

Tyler is a quality player just always seems injury prone sadly. Would love to see him have a good run of fitness.
I also thought we were linked with Joe Thomas from Tigers?

Yes , there’s been talk of joe Thomas. With hadleigh and fonotia probably going and Baldwin gone - we need at least three players in ASAP. It makes sense to get joe as he’s played in the premiership with Leicester.

Williams and morgan are v good players. both have their fitness / health issues
if both can stay fit they will both do really well , Williams has been involved with the England set up prior to his illness

I'd be happy with those two. Give us a stable of Foxy Steff Asquith Tyler Jonny Osian Also be interesting to see how Steff would go at 12 with Foxy outside him and Patch inside him in a big game. Take a bit of responsibility off his shoulders, touch more quality for him to play with. |

Didn't realise Tyler Morgan was still so young (24), 14 games this season so far so nice to see him having a run.
Haven't seen much of Johnny Williams but cv looks good. |

If we could get Tyler Morgan and keep him fit that would be a very good piece of recruitment. He attributed a lot of his injuries to not knowing he had Type 1 diabetes.
That’s a difficult condition to balance with professional sport, but I’m sure he will keep getting better at managing it so that his body is able to deliver at elite level. I think he’s a level above Fonotia and Baldwin as a 13.

good signings both, always like what I have seen of tyler morgan. usually played well against us (as does everyone). still only 24 and has so much potential
johnny Williams, just seen clips of him. good ball carrier and offloader. primarily a 12 and just the sort of player we need, and again young (24). shown great courage to come through cancer so well. was in England squad prior to it so he is certainly no slouch. 2 good pick ups I say. I think 1 more centre (probably a quality nwq) and we would be looking quite good. although still would like to see scott back in scarlet

Definitely better than fonotia- who’s gone right off the boil. These look like excellent signings so bring it on. But what’s happening with Tom James ?

Tyler didn't find out until 2018 , that he was diabetic.
Which was why he suffered with injury problems |

We still don’t know for sure how foxy is. I’m not sure about Steff Hughes - I don’t think he’s the answer and that’s no dis respect to him. I mentioned earlier about joe Thomas - let’s get him signed.
