Niall Morris

8th Aug 1988 1.88m/88kg Fullback

The young Irishman can play at wing or fullback and announced himself on his Tigers debut in 2011 with two tries against Exeter Chiefs.

Morris came through the Leinster academy and represented Ireland Under-20 at the Junior World Championships in 2008. He has pace and skill and is well equipped to deal with the high ball.

On July 4th, 2016, Leinster Rugby Head Coach Leo Cullen confirmed that Morris has re-joined the province on a short term contract from the Leicester Tigers.

The move was short lived after a 2015 ankle injury came back to haunt him, resulting Morris to retire from professional rugby at the age of only 28.
