Berwick Bandits have unveiled a second signing, Australian Nick Morris becoming a member of Peter Kidemand within the Borders aspect’s beginning line-up for 2026.
Morris re-signs after becoming a member of the Bandits in August final 12 months as a substitute for injured skipper Danyon Hume.
The 31-year-old was accessible after finishing a two-year ban for doping offences and, regardless of preliminary race rustiness and giving the remainder of the league a four-month head begin, was quickly again among the many factors particularly across the pacy Shielfield Park circuit.
It’s Morris’s second spell as a Bandit – he capped his 2017 stint by lifting the Premier League Riders’ Championship – and he’ll begin the marketing campaign on a 6.86 common.
Morris doubled up with Sheffield on his return just for his season to finish dramatically following an enormous crash racing within the Premiership play-off semi-final.
He’s now totally recovered and making ready for the Australian season.
Bandits’ group supervisor Stewart Dickson stated: “Contemplating the two-year lay-off and late begin to the season, Nick did remarkably properly in his brief 2025 marketing campaign.
“By the top of it he was someplace close to the Nick Morris we remembered from earlier than his ban however, inevitably, his common dropped.
“Some might imagine he’s a steal on such a low common – and I wouldn’t argue.
“With a full winter preparation we count on him to hit the bottom working in 2026.”
