Hmm. Guess Justin's staying, then?

Your kidding? It was never true, anyone with half a brain could see that.

I understand that means he's signed a new two year deal.

I hope not

Didn't he originally move there at his own request to help his England chances?

I can't recall if it was at his own request, but it was certainly the reason given at the time for the move.

It's a real shame to see Fox fall so far from grace. England have a dearth of decent wingers so to see someone who was in that setup not so long ago drop out is disappointing. From the sound of the article though it seems that he's determined to fight for his place at Rovers. I wish him well.

hopefully he will work hard and knuckle down in pre season, and get himself a bit fitter, come back next season and get back to doing what he does best.
I agree its been a hard season for him, very little service for either winger IMO, sometimes he only sees the ball from kick returns or dummy half scoots.

If that is the case maybe a couple more going....3 KR players sat in the sauna at David Llyod last weekanother player walked in and said Morgan's here, one said what the f** is he doing here and another said f*** this I am going



I kid you not, interestingly they were all British.

I'm as confused as everyone about what is going on at rovers now. One way or other the players have to know who they are going to be coached by next year. It's an integral part of their contract. With this in mind, players being told they "are free to talk to other clubs" may be told otherwise if the coach changes and wants to retain them.
One way or another something concrete has to be done, JMs contract extended or terminated and I don't care which it is!

Hope it's not true, gutted for him as he really seems to care for the fans and club. Ok form has been poor of late but there have been signs of improvement lately then this kick in the teeth for him. Would prefer him than Colbon as at least he has pace, albeit not as it was. My daughter is fretting too as she loves him to bits

Totally agree, how can the playing staff be hired and fired now if Justin may be going? Surely any incoming coach will want a say in the team for next season not one picked by the outgoing one (if indeed he is?) or whoever? Really confusing and not helping in the performances and spirit in the camp IMO.

THE FOX WILL RISE FROM THE ASHES OF THIS SEASON LIKE A PHOENIX FROM THE FLAMES HE WILL RETURN TO REAP A TERRIBLE VENGEANCE ON THE SCOUNDRELS FROM THE WEST WHETHER THE MAGNIFICENT MORGAN IS HERE OR NOT IS OF NO CONSEQUENCE TO THIS MACHINE HE WILL BE LIKE THAT ROBOT THING IN THE FILM WITH ARNIE EXCEPT WITHOUT THE RED EYES UNLESS HE'S BEEN OUT REALLY LATE THE NIGHT BEFORE HE WILL BE BACK TO BEING THE TOP SCORER AS THE MIGHT OF EAST HULL DECIMATES ALL OF SUPER LEAGUE BEFORE IT.

God you talk some =#FF0000poop!

i really hope his =#FF0000poop doesnt reflect on the rest of us

Fox was at his best in 2009, your boy was in the stands most of that season.

No.....well maybe one or two

Its not the priority of the coach of Hull KR to do what's best for England, he should have said to Fox that left wing is his best position and that's where you stay for the good of the club. The move has (IMO) contributed to his loss of form and has probably curtailed his international career, so he would have been better served stayting on the left and taking his chances with the national coach.

The problem is, you seem incabable of distinguishing between these fanatasy films and reality, for gods sake take those caps off, its becoming realy irratating

Hindsight is a wonderful thing!

Agreed. However JM didn't need to leave him on the right for the best part of 2 years, it was obvious during 2010 that he wasn't the same player.

but surely his coach should see the move hasnt done any one any good and would maybe move him back to the other wing, its not as if Colbon has been outstanding since the swap is it?

Of course the decision is likely to be motivated by money (as well as form). There's no point having a player earning an Intl wage on your books, when he's suddenly become awful this season and then is likely to become a bit part player next year. If he was on a smaller wage, I bet we would like to keep him to be as cover. As it is, it just makes sense to try and offload him if he's earning too much to be just a squad player. Trouble is I doubt we'll get our way.

I can't see why Fox would want to move. He won't get the same deal at another club right now, so he may as well stay and try and get himself back into form next year. If that happened he's likely to have a few suitors who will want him.

Was still selected for the England elite squad at the beginning of this year on his form from last season. Did okay there when he got his chance for England in 2009 as well. While the left-right thing and his bulking up have no doubt been issues, mostly it has been a form-confidence downward spiral IMO.

Unless the club are confident there'll be interest, I don't see any point in this - it's hardly going to give him a lift if he does stay. I can see arguments for retaining Colbon ahead of Fox, but they aren't so strong that I'd risk tying myself in knots when one is contracted and the other isn't. I can easily imagine Fox recapturing some form in 2012 - and if he doesn't, then we've got an easy and straight forward option.

Hull KR have promoted under 20's Academy winger Nick Johnson to the first team squad by awarding him a one-year contract for the 2012 season.
