Aye, or even lesser lights who were still better than Fox, Darren Albert, Tevita Vaikona etc etc.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

I'm merely making the point that Peter Fox in top-form is the closest thing I've seen to Offiah since his retirement (mainly more in the context of style rather than ability).
To be fair, you've probably been watching the likes of chorley, dewsbury and workington for most of that time so it's hardly surprising
I have this feeling that the Aussies will underestimates Briscoes strength and he will catch them out. Just a feeling but even at the end of the this season when players know his game, forwards were still going high on him and he was shrugging them off. Reminds me a little of Vaikona who had mongloid strength too.

Not a chance, Ryan Hall has owned Fox all year for a start. There are a lot of good wingers in SL and Fox is amongst them, there is just something holding him back imo and I don't know what it is.
He can score great tries but he also blows easy ones through poor handling or not reading the game properley. As for the long range tries, against Leeds in the playoff's he went through a gap, now Hall had the same opportunity and put his foot on the gas and backed himself, Fox stuttered and stumbled and then took the wrong option.
Fox has great pace but not a lost else imo and is overrated at present.
absolutely but zod seems to think that Fox is in the same class. Robinson RL legend, Offiah an embarasment to the game at times very fast and elusive but no balls, Fox average winger

It's that thing between his ears! He has all the physical attributes of a great winger, but simply does not have the brains to back it up.
