Yeah I do, name the better wingers than Hicks then?

I would rather have Hicks than Dessie (even though he is my avatar!)

Hicks is a good finisher, but then the way we play all our wingers score plenty of tries and have for years (apart from Gaskell!).

Richie Barnett Junior?

Corrected.

Great news, and apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, but does that use up all our quota spaces.

Deary me tonight.
he's probably not even in the best five since Brian Bevan

You are to right but I would say since John Bevan not Brian Bevan and its not that he is poor player and I would like him to stay but I'll belive it when I see it.

some times the level of feck wit' ness on this board reaches new levels.........

a 33 year old Australian with No rep honours in is own country has now become the feckin messiah of all Wingers

John Bevan was a Challenge cup winning winger in 1974 plus a $hit load of other descriptions Chris Hicks couldnt hope to get near

Christ I'd put Thackray above Hicks


is this how low we sink in England?
we view an ordinary Winger through Australian glasses and he's the best thing weve ever had.........the blokes about to retire for god's sake

Wigan in the 80's would have got rid of him on his 30th Birthday.....



oh thanks Chris youve saved our season I dont know how we would have coped without you the best winger since Brian Bevan ......

goodnight i'm off to spew up.....

....He's a good player, no doubt, but this is just ridiculous....John Bevan was a lot better winger than Hicks will ever be.....The likes of Dessie, Phil Ford and even Richard Henare were certainly a match for him.

Realistically, Hicks is a good, honest pro, who deserves to be remembered favourably, but let's not go overboard on how great he really is.

So, he didn't get a job coaching some 6 year olds, so he is staying in the UK...makes sense!!

Whilst I agree with the sentiment of the post, I do think it is slightly over the top!

On the bit in bold though, not sure why that needed highlighting, as Hicks was a Challenge Cup winning winger in 2009.

I know it won't be a popular view on here but imo Hicks is a better winger than Drummond, Forster or Henare.

Saying Henare was a great winger is like saying Graham Appo was great. They were both fast and dangerous when they were fit which was about one full season each. Henare's second year he was a shadow of the player he was in 96, people forget that because he got sacked half way through.

Drummond was hard and a great competitor but overall he wasn't as classy a finisher as Hicks. Same with Forster, I missed the start of his career so possibly missed his best years but for what I saw he was another good clubman but not in Hicks' quality. I would definitely have Hicks in my all time Warrington team from players I've seen (1989 onwards)

Only passing on what i have been told.Might be right might be wrong,lets just wait and see.

omg people these days yes he is not in the same league as brian bevan but still been a great player for wire. one person posts sayin he's a but better than he actualy is and people saying he is not a great winger anyone who says chris hicks isn't great probably only supported us this season and doesn't know fuk all about rugby
