Brett Morris (born August 23, 1986 in Kiama, NSW) is an Australian rugby league player for the St George Illawarra Dragons in the National Rugby League competition. His position of choice is fullback, but he often plays wing.Morris has a great ability to leap high for the ball and catch it. He is also very fast off the mark and over a long distance.
During the last moments of a game against the Brisbane Broncos at Suncorp Stadium, Morris contested a Mathew Head bomb with Fraser Anderson, and Morris caught the ball and scored a last-gasp try. Referee Tony Archer sent the decision upstairs, and after the try was awarded coach Nathan Brown decided to give the goalkicking duties to hooker Aaron Gorrell, who kicked the winning conversion from the sideline, prompting Ray Warren to say: I don't know! Yes I do! The Dragons have got home!". Head had kicked the last two conversions.
Brett is the son of St. George Dragons and rugby league legend, Steve Morris. His twin brother, Josh, also plays for the Dragons.
