Peter Fox's contract is up after this season (according to HKR board), should we go for him, he does look a decent prospect from what i've seen.

If it's possible, i would sign him. Hes a good player.

Outplayed Gardener at KR this season.

I like him, good young british winger, not many of them about

British Trained? England International? On form?

I reckon he might be quite sort after, you know, and I personally don't know how sensible it is spending a lot of money on wingers given salary cap restrictions (does that sound daft?).

We've lost something like 15 senior players in 3 years and signed 3. We must have cap room available this season, never mind next year when we presumably won't have KC, Gidley, Cayless, Smelly, Gilly and no doubt several more senior players.

But lets not worry, as I'm sure we'll sign at least 1 player for next season.

I'd definitely go for him. There will undoubtedly be some inerest in him, but he isn't quite a fully fledged international yet so wouldn't necessarily command an astronomical figure.

It's about time we had a quick winger anyway.

Whilst you make a valid point, my suggstion is that we [iare [/irestricted by the cap, so if players are demanding higher wages, I would rather them be centres, half backs, hookers and props than wingers - sorry wingers.

If available, he is must get player IMO.

Good player and if we can get him for the same as or less than Meli than I would love him at Saints

Arrogant barstewards.

always looking to improve, its what makes us so successful for so long now !

I'm a fan.

We're talking about making a bid for a top player who is coming off contract. It's the kind of thing that goes on on RL discussion forums.

Definitely. Solid in defence, good under the high ball, makes good yards and he's rapid. He'd compliment Gardner on the other side well.

I couldn't see him commanding a higher wage than Meli. He would be a great signing, but I think we may need someone before the end of the season the way things are shaping up.

Hmmm prospect? He is 24 he is not going to get much better. He looks a good player but i am sure we can do better.

Dave Halley is being treated pretty poorly at Bradford I wonder when his contracts up?

....one sec

To answer my own question he signed a 12 month contact last year (how poor is that considering how good he looks). So he is up as well, I would much rather sign him. He does have natural pace.

From what I've seen Fox is miles better than Halley.

He's a money chaser, claimed to love it at Wakey, kissed the badge every time he scored, and then left for a paltry difference between what we ofered and what KR offered, oh and his agent is Howes who squeezes every club for every penny that he can get. Fox now being an England international, that combination will cost someone big bucks the next time they negotiate.

And from what I have seen Halley is much better than Fox as well as having a few years on him

We'll sign them both eh? Ade can go to fullback and Wello can play loose forward.

Maybe I'm missing something, but Fox seems to me to have pace, strength, good defence and a finisher's instinct.

Halley just seems to have pace.

And there's only 2 years between them

Fox is more cunning, but lacks alertness in the daytime according to Wikipedia?

Good job we play most of our games at night then.

He's decent but I'm not sure it's worth going for him. I'd prefer us to use our cash to strengthen somewhere else. Is he really that much better than what we've got coming through? I know we're not exactly blessed with wingers but wing is arguably the least important position on the field i.e. forwards, havles, centres and full back come before wing for recruiting purposes.
