I think Fozzard is a good signing, but only for the one year. He'll do the job but we need to sign a young destructive prop for 2011, with his better years ahead of him.

He would have signed last month but both parties hit a stumbling block in signing the contract as Fozzard wanted one fresh pair of beige 'Farrah' pants, one bottl of 'Brut', a nice pair of tartan slippers and a pipe thrown in with the deal.

Happy retirement Fozz and the GPW Retirement Home!

Fozzard said: "I'm absolutely thrilled to be back at Saints. It will be great to be back with my old team-mates."

He added: "The Saints fans can expect my absolute best for them next season."



Unbelievable. That is quite an uninspiring comment.

From Rovers' point of view. Just sends out a bad vibe NOW, as he'll still have a part to play in this year.

Great for Saints, but it leaves you questioning has he put maximum effort/best display for HKR.

Yeah I can see that, almost implies the KR fans didn't get his "absolute best".

Nah, sometimes with sport it just doesn't seem 'right'. It doesn't feel like your club and you fail to bond with the people and the situation.

It happens all the time in football. A striker scores 30 goals for one team, signs for another and can't hit a barn door. Returns to the original team, often one not as good and bangs them in again.

Didn't he have a short spell at Hunslett or somewhere also?

I may be wrong but I thought he had.

Crazy decision.....

Surely everyone is "potentially" injury prone? Would you say Maurie is injury prone?

Foz has played 20+ games this year and is another prop for the squad - just what we need.

At any time players are injury prone especially in the front row but why increase that risk by signing a 32 year old prop who a season ago was let go? Do they know their s from their elbows?

Hopefully this will be an inspired choice like the signing of Baloo, but I can not help think it is motivated financially otherwise im just confused....

Fozz had awful injury problems in his early career, but they cleared up when he got to saints (barring his last season, which had one bad knee injury) - goes to show there's a little bit of luck aswell.

Also, like baloo who suffered early in his career, the lack of total milage may help him crack on into the twilight of his career.
