| Connor Murphy has said at the moment briggs is out of favour with potter. I know he was injured today but i really cant see why? i thought he was superb vs leeds and caused some real problems. So why isnt he playing him? we are clearly missing kicking and wide play which briggs is good at. Its really frustrating at the moment as clearly kearney more dangerous at FB even though he has played well at stand off. Herbert hasnt set the world alight but its early days and he needs time. I also think with someone like briggs in he would improve. He seems to be struggling with his kicking game imo. I think we need to soon see briggs as we just dont seem to be running any lines or anything. Could anyone also tell me why we insist in constantly kicking any penalty we get 5 yards? really frustrating

| TBH no one knows how he's doing in training also his 2 games for the 20's have warranted him getting a first team place if anything Southernwood deserves the call up.

| I've more faith in Potter than Bulls1989.
Briggs made 4 missed tackles and 5 handling errors versus Leeds. Not exactly superb. He'll get a chance when he deserves one.

He did but he also set up 2 or 3 of the tries and we looked an organised back line with him out there.
I think we just need consistency in the halfs whether it be Briggs/Herbert Briggs/Kearney or Herbert/Kearney, just let them get to know one another and how they play. The lad is 23 (I think) and has flown to the other side of the world and in 4 games is expected to be running a team and setting the world on fire, some people need to give the guy a break!! I'm 22 myself and I don't think I could go to a team in my own town and run them an organise them in 4 games!!!

| When we've had a settled halfback pairing for a couple of seasons, let's see where we are. As long as we take our time, look carefully at the combinations, and give everyone a decent chance, I'll be happy with that, anything quicker then so much the better.

| well we aren't going to be seeing the briggs/herbert combo for a few weeks yet. Connors tweeted that briggs has suffered a recurrence of his knee problem and will miss a few weeks.

| I've got to say, I didn't think he had a great game against Leeds. It was OK but a long way from being perfect.
I wonder how much Potter see's him as one for later on in the year or as a back up rather than first choice. I remember what Medders said about Southernwood at last years forum, having to learn new defensive drills and plays. I'd imagine it's the same for Briggs. He's only young and, despite having a good year withn Feath is probably not the finished article.

Correct me if I'm wrong but in todays T & A it says he is suffering from a bit of patella tendonitis, is that not whats kept Owen Hargreaves on the side lines for last few seasons?

| Apols if this has been posted elsewhere, but if Briggs is injured, why does he continually take part in full contact warm ups with the team before games. He was out there again against Hull, warming up in full kit, taking part in the tackling and passing drills. What is going on?

He's fit and not being selected. I'm not sure why people are finding that hard to grasp tbh. There are other players in the same boat.

Connor Murphy also says he's 'a few weeks away from fitness'. What is the real story?? If he's fit, he should play!

| Briggs performances for the U20's don't warrant a first team place whats hard to grasp about that.

Looks like the rumours may be true and he's on the outter with Potter then. Shame, because he's a talented young player who could give us the spark we're missing at half back. Herbert is 50/50 at best. His kicking game is scratchy at best, and his touchfinders from penaltys are a joke. Get Briggsy in for Salford!

If he's not performing for the 20's whats going to change in the first team.

Who said he's not performing for the 20's? Maybe he's just building his fitness to get back to the first team squad. We are desparately missing creativity from half at the mo...give him a go, and if it dont work drop him back to reserve grade>

Have you seen the 20's games in which he has played in.

Well since it came from Kyle himself that he's been fit for a few weeks and is just finding it hard to get back in the team, I'd take that as gospel personally.

So if we accept that as the truth, then I'm afraid I agree with Red, he's not showing it in his games for the U20s. Maybe it's a confidence thing, I don't know, but he's hardly setting the game alight at the lower level.

TBH I thought that that was going to be an informative article backed up with some excellent facts that prove this.
Instead all I got was a shameless plug for your own page. Poor show.

You've read my posts in the couple of years I've been posting on here - what else did you expect? FWIW, I did a piece on Langley with some stats for you number crunchers (and I do mention Herby being 3rd in the try assists stat so far this year, and his involvement in all our tries Friday) soooo... *blows raspberry*
