Morrison was a star player for the Parramatta Eels, Balmain Tigers, North Sydney Bears and the North Queensland Cowboys in the National Rugby League before signing with the Bulls.

Morrison was a firm favourite in his two years at Parramatta after joining the Eels from North Queensland Cowboys, missing only four games in his time at the club. A strong running back row forward he also played for Balmain Tigers and North Sydney Bears.

While playing in the NRL, Morrison was selected for the Country Origin team on four occasions.

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.

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.
