The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you. Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.:Dwarfs, Gnomes, Halflings/GNOME2.JPG



Quote: saint billy "Apparently, Fozzard had a chest infection through the week and probably shouldn't have played last night, don't know how true that is though. Even without a chest infection, Fozzard isn't the quickest and his legs are going, but i thought he did a pretty decent job yesterday, especially if he did have a chest infection. Like the OP said, that is the reason he's in the squad, and its a good job he was. Hes slow moving up at times but that was to be expected.'"



His first stint was only 16 mins, every time he came back to the bench he looked unwell so the chest infection could be have been the reason. Every time he went back on the field of play though he didn't exactly shy away from any workload.

Quote: FearTheVee "Last night highlights why it was a canny move to get him into the squad on peanuts.'"


Peanuts? You can get an awful lot of peanuts for the money Fozzard is on.

Exactly mate. His stints on the field weren't exactly long, but he didn't shy away from anything, which showed great character and just why we signed him back from Hull KR.

An opinion I have, but haven't shared for a while, is that Fozzard is a specialist starting prop. People talk about speciality interchange props but Fozzard has always been far more effective playing at the beginning of a game. He is able to handle the rough stuff that happened in the opening quarter. If you bring him off the bench he has never been very effective, in fact he slows down play and gets in the way.

Foz should either start or not play at all.

I agree, we need to convince Mick Potter that.

Quote: Offside Monkey "agreed'"


I'd agree with that too - he isnt really an impact player and for me he is good at taking the sting out of the opposition.

Always has been. In 2006 when he was essentially 5th choice prop, he'd always started when included.

I was under the impression he was retiring - If he doesnt I'm sure he would do a good job if he dropped down a division

Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. (Winston Churchill):d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40218.jpg



Quote: No1 Saint "I was under the impression he was retiring - If he doesnt I'm sure he would do a good job if he dropped down a division'"

He said in the RL press a few weeks back that he would like another contract with Saints and that is what he is playing for this season.

I'd be pretty disappointed if he got one, a fair stop gap for this year, nothing more

I'd be disappointed too. He's not the Fozzard he once was, which I didn't think he would be when I first heard we were getting him back, and while he has been handy as a body on the park he hasn't really offered us much this season.
