and tony smith, who has only ever picked fox for a meaningless fixture against france when the majority of the team picked were fringe players

Meh, the lad's still a 'fairly steady' job for us so I'm sure him and his fans can handle the criticism.

can't argue with that.
We are lucky that there are a lot of class wingers playing in Super League,English or other and to be fair Fox is right up there in the top tier.
Whatever you say about him nobody can deny Morgan has a good eye for the players he brings in (mostly)

Hey with all the talk of last night, wonder who would win a sprint between the Briscoe brothers then?

So bickering aside, with Jack Briscoe get a game next week with Tansey been banned?

I would play him if Horney is not fit and move Whiting to 7.

I'd play him anyway in front of Whiting at FB.

Whiting has to play 6 with Washy at 7 for me if we dont have other options.

Would be amazed if Agar gave him his debut away from home against a Wigan side fighting to overtake Wakey for 5th spot.
Bradford at home the week after with his home fans behind him would seem a better option to me.
Have only seen him play a couple of times but he looks to be a bit special and it wouldnt surprise me if, after a big off-season, he doesnt make one of the wing spots his own next season and gradually makes the full back spot his own.

Definately cover for next season. To get a regular space he would need to push one of Calders, Raynor, Tom Briscoe to one side. Guess it depends too whether Tom nails down a centre spot. Could end up with a Briscoe and Briscoe wing/centre partnership

Fair point about the Wigan game. I'd still be tempted as there will be less pressure away from home as our first teamers keep telling people. Would be good to see him given a game though in one of the games at least.

Dont forget in about 3 years we could have all 3 Briscoes in the team

Jack and Tom Briscoe, Rhys Lyn and Craig Hall - those four in the backline will certainly add some pace to our side over the next couple of year or so.

Yes you are right, however we will have to change our game style and become more expansive to utilise these players.
I am hopeing we start to do that from next season.

Rhys Lynns a full back isnt he?

Heard some good things about him, never seen him but a few people have said he plays similar to the way Karmichael Hunt plays.
