As if being cut adrift at the foot of the table, having secured just one win all season isn't bad enough, Morgan is now looking at the prospect of facing one of the division's toughest teams without a single recognised second row on the team sheet.
Hopes had been raised earlier in the week that Richard White would have recovered from a shoulder injury in time to step back in.
However, after consultation with club physio Jimmy Farrell, White has been advised to delay his comeback leaving Morgan with a massive headache.
Long serving lock Martin Smith has already been ruled out, probably for the remainder of the season, with a neck injury while Matt Harrison, who has filled in admirably, is missing as he is attending his sister's wedding back home in New Zealand.
This is the latest in a host of setbacks that have tested Morgan's patience and loyalty to the limit throughout the campaign.
"It never rains but it pours and that is certainly true about Halifax," said Morgan.
"Everything that could have gone wrong seems to have done and some weeks it has been an extremely frustrating job trying to put a team out on a Saturday.
"At the start of the week we looked set to have Richard White coming back, but that has been reversed on the recommendation of the physio.
"Also we have Matty Harrison unavailable because of a long-standing trip to attend his sister's wedding.
"There was no way I would have pulled the rug from under him on that one and stopped him going because the last thing we need is a player of his quality walking away."
With the transfer deadline having passed, Morgan has found his options in drafting in replacements severely limited.
"It is certainly not through the want of trying," he added.
"We have been trying to get people in from all over - Huddersfield, Manchester, Leeds - but there is just nobody out there.
"I have options such as bringing Dominic Moon into the second row and even Gareth Lewis or Oli Saparamadu, and although they would do their best to make it work it is far from ideal in that it would give us the smallest second row in the league."
Another source of frustration is having to work with depleted numbers at training - a situation that has even affected Morgan himself with work commitments cutting into his time.
"You cannot even start to work on patterns when you have three of four guys missing and that has been a problem all season," said Morgan.
"Of course people have work commitments which come first but it is just another obstacle that we have been trying to overcome."
One positive note is the return to fitness of centre James Endersby following a back injury while scrum half Ronan Dillon has declared himself fit despite suffering a slight pull following last weekend's 38-3 defeat at Redruth.
Not surprisingly, Morgan cannot wait for this season to end, adding: "At this stage we are really clutching at straws with regard to getting a competitive team out.
"To be honest I have had enough of this season and I just want it to end.
"But whatever gets thrown at us, we must remain positive and make sure we get things right for next season."
