Morgan, who has also extended his contract for another season with the Saints, will become the competition’s first playing coach since Kevin Kenna in 1953.
The midfielder’s signing ends speculation Benalla will attempt to lure a former player back to the club from the Ovens and Murray.
Morgan coached the Saints to their first flag in 42 years when it defeated Kyabram in last year’s grand final and has the club in third spot heading into this weekend’s finals.
Goulburn Valley lost to Essendon and District by four points this year to drop down the rankings.
