D'know i think it was

danny you selected a player who WASN'T in the 24 man squad, when i selected briscoe he was in the squad.

no i said i hope he does well to get in the team

and he has well done tom

im guessing that may be why tony smith has added him to the squad, he must have had other options in other positions

Meaning Fox must have come in and done more work then, what's your point?

Fox is pants.

HTH.

Here, here.

Fox is not pants - he's fast, returns the ball well, breaks tackles and can score tries. He seems to have lost a bit of confidence though recently and I think he needs to work on his defence. To be fair, many wingers have a weakness in that area but I do think he is particularly weak there at the moment.

I know, I was being sarky.

It's a great achievement for Tom to be called up for his country after just 29 first team games. I'm so glad we have him on a long contract, the lad has a big future in the game.

I hope he gets selected in the Four Nations, there's no problem with burn out as he only played 13 games this season. The only issue would be him joining pre-season training later than the rest of the squad but he isn't a playmaker so I don't see that as a big problem.

Tom reminds me of a young lad that played for Featherstone a few years back, Newlove was his name and he went on to be a half decent centre! Briscoe is very strong with a fair turn of pace, add a bit more experience and some decent coaching

and he will be a regular international.

Spot on. If Briscoe can fit into the national set-up with a couple of weeks training he should be fine slotting back in at FC. Plus he should be relatively fresh after his injury lay-off. I'd joke about us only doing fitness training rather than ball skills anyway for 11 of 12 weeks preseason, but fortunately Long won't stand for that.

He's not that fast IMO, otherwise I tend to agree. Also seems a little slow mentally at times.

We should adopt him into the Cabbage Crew.

he did okay in the "fastest man in rugby" but I do think he has good accelleration. As for being slow mentally....

My Momma always said, "playing Rugby League is like a box of chocolates…. you never know what sort of centre you’re gonna get."

Anyone else hear in their head "Run, Forrest, run!" when Yeamo got that interception at Wembley last year?

If briscoe does play against the aussies who would you put him up against Hayne or Folau. both are awesome for different reason

Folau has withdrawn due to injury.

thats a bit of fortune i didnt realise. they will have a more then able replacement no doubt there backs are all world calss ours look very average in comparison particulaly in the

If they was both playing i think they would both want to be playing the same Wing as Fox

Briscoe is the best player Hull have produced since schofield IMO. Wonder if pumpkin and the baldy have changed their opinions on him [url=http://viewtopic.php?t=379849&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=270Read their opinions here[/url





And fox is average and incredibly dim.

No he's not.
