Quote="R.B.A"He is faster than he is given credit for. Certainly a lot faster than Liam Colbon, although i appreciate that Colbon has other strengths to his game.'"
Whilst I dont think he will ever pull up trees, thought he caught well under pressure apart from the one time when he called for a ball which should have been Briscoes.
After the Hudds game I thought Fox had lost his pace and his enthusiasm.
Against Bradford he was like a different player. He made one or two howlers like he sometimes does (e.g. not passing inside to Murrell) but overall looked like a very good winger.
I know Welham is carrying an injury right now but when he passed to Fox it was so that the faster man could race away for the try. So why in the Saints cup tie was Fox nowhere to be seen as Welham and only Welham raced back to stop Meli? That's the dilemma.
Fox is a confidence player but when he is feeling good about himself he has far more class than Colbon and possibly David Hodgson. IMO we should have been working out how to get the best out of him and letting Colbon go who after all was the one out of contract.
Having said that we'll save more on Fox's wages than Colbon's. So more to re-invest elsewhere. Difficult juggling act in these days of salary caps and quotas.
