I was told today he wants to leave Wire as he's very unhappy


Should Saints be intrested

I'd say yes. Great goal kicker and can play a bit too. Out of contract at the end of the season.

I would.

If I were Saints that is

If he was cheap and available now to replace Smelly, yes. For next season? No. He's not good enough to sign for next season when there will no doubt be several NRL randoms becoming available as their contracts are not extended or they leave French Union clubs.

to old for let the youngens come through or a sign young world class winger

He's 33 years old next year.

He's still a good player, despite his age. A goal kicker is just what we need too.

We have one.

Just he tends to have one good day, followed by 2/3 bad ones.

Isn't this Slong's last season?

Hicks turned out to be a gem signing for the dires, of all the players they signed this mucker turned up, performed and never looked out of his depth. Sort of like Phil Vievers when we signed him, he came just to brush Meninga's hair and clean his room, but turned out to be a gem, even if he did end up working for the goons.

If Hicks was to leave early it would be a loss to the cheshire set for sure and I am sure all the fans would feel sorry, and the team shoudl also feel guilty AGAIN for forcing someone out the door due to their lack of ability.

Hicks is a very good player, but he is getting on a bit now, and I'd be surprised if you went for him.

Also, if you are looking for a kicker, he probably isn't your solution. His success ratio last year was 2nd worst in the league. We do score many of our tries out wide due to our style, but he isn't a great kicker.

Why do you need a kicker when you've got Foster?

rumour is that your after Brough so you have a good goal kicker in him if he signs for you

brough is average, he only looks good in poor teams. No thanks

ooooh ark at you!

as for hicks, i'd take him for the rest of the season on loan to replace meli, then send him home.

If Saints signed a player such as Hicks who at 33 would be in the twighlight of his career it would be indicative of the stupidity of Super League clubs and a singular example of the lack of opportunity given to promising young players. We need to steer well clear of players such as this and give local, nglish lads a chance.

I had no idea Hicks was that old.

He's a decent player, but the only circumstances under which we should consider signing a 33 yr old Aussie is if he is a player of the absolute highest calibre.

Better to sign Lee Smith

He's off to wasps in june

Too old and he's an Aussie

I thought it was saracens

Either way he's being shipped off to union.

Who, Hicks?

No, Lee Smtih.
