They're called "East Hull Blinkers" they go on "Dobbins"

Who cares about Fox? this threads about Briscoe (an up and coming back)

Any credit to Richard Agar for securing him?

What do you reckon? I don't think Agar should be our head coach, but I'd guess that if it weren't for him, none of the Briscoe brothers would be plying their trade at Hull.

not only them but all our new signing seem to be convinced that agar is the man to get things done

Watched Jack Briscoe all season, he is going to be a top performer and in my opinion better than Tom.

big statement, all depends if he can handle the step up to top flight rugby, Tom's not even played a full season yet with injuries but hes proven he can handle this level.

Like someone (east hull guy?) mentioned in another thread, for all that we criticise him, his retention/signings have, in general, been very good.

He's the fastest player in Hull you know.

FFS.



And Dwayne Chambers is faster then both, but would you rather have him then Briscoe at your club?



My point if Fox maybe not be the fastest winger in SL, but there's a hell of a lot more to being a winger then just sprinting

(which is why Fox is still the best wingman in SL

).

That's funny because he was the fastest thing in RL according to you lot until it was proven otherwise last night, in fact the fastest thing I've seen is the decline of your expectations. From the fastest player in RL to not even the fastest player in Hull in less than 13 seconds

Fookin loser, you go enjoy your open top bus tour to celebrate the 9's win, we'll look forward to the play-offs cheers.

I'll see your Peter Fox and raise you Scott Donald and Ryan Hall

Eh?

You mean pace or overall wing play?



By the way TKAOH I apologise for overeacting (shouldn't have done).

Either. You said Fox was the best wingman in SL. I suspect either of the two I named would disagree.

Fair dues but from what I've seen live and on TV he offers more overall e.g. he's just as good a finisher, but IMO is even better at running it out to make yards and clear pressure. Defensively I don't think there's much seperating the three, + he's great at supporting, so it's def close I think.

Calders and Raynor would probably disagree too

Maybe but Donald and Hall are the class of the comp imho

Nah.

Sure they make (on average) just as many yards as Fox, but the key difference is he runs [iforwards[/i.

Have to agree to disagree, but O/T I think Fox definitely deserves to keep the England No.2 jersey.

and tony smith, who has only ever picked fox for a meaningless fixture against france when the majority of the team picked were fringe players

Meh, the lad's still a 'fairly steady' job for us so I'm sure him and his fans can handle the criticism.

can't argue with that.
We are lucky that there are a lot of class wingers playing in Super League,English or other and to be fair Fox is right up there in the top tier.
Whatever you say about him nobody can deny Morgan has a good eye for the players he brings in (mostly)

wait till he's playing in a side that is under performing. your bunch of average players have been playing out of their skins for 2 seasons now, it's bound to end sooner or later.

That's what I'm saying though - he doesn't appear the type of winger who depends on great service (e.g. Gardner), he seems to go looking for his own opportunities which is a great asset.
