and your point is

We can pay an average overseas winger i would guess more money than Fox wanted yet Fox is British better and will only get better

My point is that you don't have to be obsessed about a player because he is English. Blanch offered far better VFM. Finally where is your proof Fox will get better, he looks exactly the same as he did when he played for us.

Why can't we just accept you win some you lose some. We lost Fox but along the line we picked up, Gleeson, Grix, Atkins and George. I think we are probably in credit wouldn't you?

With Tadulala, Sheriffe and Tupou i could well see McNamara letting him go

My point exactly, all wingers, we need centres.

Why he never looked like making the step to the first team.

He never made the step upto the first team, because our coach at the time, who is now doing a sterling job at Wigan, preferred a certain Ben Harris, remember him, that world beating Aussie we had??

McNamara rated Atkins, Noble didn't. Young and pacy? Not for Mr Noble that.

Stop it Atkins was never in the same class as Ben Harris.

How utterly predictable - he isn't playing for us the mighty Bulls so he is crap. Well most fans of most clubs saw a lot of him last year and many thought him one of your better players - show some good grace.

I never rated him as a player it's got nothing at all to do with him now being at Wakefield.
