Last season people's expectations of Escare where very low and everyone was pleasantly surprised by his form. Some posters even suggesting that he deserved a place ahead of Sam Tomkins (which was ludicrous). This year things are different.
Expectations are now quite high for Morgan. My gut feeling is that his form in the Catalans game was more like his normal game. I hope I'm wrong about this, but I don't think he's good enough for the first 13/17.

Totally agree. I was pleased when he was signed as cover for Tomkins etc. I wouldn't have been as happy if we'd signed him as a starting FB. The FB is arguably the key to the attack operating both flanks, often the best attacker in the team is now the FB, for me, this has to be Sam.
