I think they do it in football all the time though. I think that the deal is basically, Hull in this case, gets the opportunity to match whatever other team has bid. At the end of the day, it is upto the player. If Hull pay the same as Leeds, for example, then Briscoe would decide his fate

Is that what saints did with lyon or was that just a gentlemans agreement??

Personally, I think he will go the the NRL. He's good enough and I think he'll do really well over there. Brilliant opportunity for him.

Regarding him coming back to us, what's to say he won't spend the next 8 years there?? I would love him to go for 3 years and then come back, but I think it's a bit of a dream.

If he goes to the NRL then fair enough, the one blessing with this is the position, probably say the only position not short of talent out there is the wing

me too pal

I have a pal who coaches the juniors at Fev Lions and he says that it is common knowledge that he would like a crack at the NRL but the only other SL side that would interest him should he move would be the Rhinos

wow how could a young kid of his age with his talent refuse an experience of a lifetime to go to Oz and get paid big bucks for it in the process...
I only joined the RN so i could see the planet and got paid peanuts for it ,so tom a young good looking kid with bags of money to play out with in Oz on a mega deal !!! instant superstar !!! and popular with the chikkas too!!!
he wont go to leeds IMO not when Manley beach becons

I think we do, as does every other club in Super League. Wasn't it brought in to help protect the Rah Rah Poachers? Think you can spend up to an extra £100k on one player to encourage them to stay in Super League. Naturally if a talent like Briscoe or Tomkins is on better money, it will also be harder for NRL clubs to attract them down under.

Look at my earlier post.

as long as he's here for this season, that's the main, we can worry about him going when the seasons over.
kieron dixon should be targeted as his replacement

He's a good prospect, but I'd go after Broughton.

Why the f are we already naming players to replace Tom in 2014

FFS













In 2030 we'll sign Briscoes son, happy?

#intheknow

it's a forum, we're chatting, now tell us why your an old misery guts

The forum was about rugby

Rumours used to be whos off at the end of the current season, we are now doing talk of 2 years time.

Really

the thread is about briscoe possibly going, i cant see any harm in discussing who we might like to see come in and replace him, if you dont want to then dont, but dont p*ss and moan just because you want some attention

Briscoe 6 year deal to stay

Briscoe's girlfriend has been telling people that they're moving to Australia next year - sounds like they've both got their hearts set on moving & who can blame them.

I know of a few Rovers players who have done just the same.

Nice one.

Tom is a talented young player and he and his girlfriend would be mad to turn down the chance to go and live in Australia for a few years and if that's what he decides to do I hope all true Hull FC fans would send him off with their thanks and best wishes.

However I would be very disappointed if he were to sign for another SL side, especially Leeds.

I know of a few rovers fans girlfriends, who are also their sisters

lol like it !!!!!!!!!!!

I'd sound out Wests, if they'd do a player swap for Miller now, if Tom intends to go the NRL.
According to Ellis, Miller was keen to come to ESL.

Get em told randy bo bandy ..
