That's how I remember it too.

So its ok to abuse someone who gave us loyal service and great value for 5 years just because he had the audacity to leave?
I suppose you think a player should stay with a club until the club decides to discard him by not offering him a new contract?

| Then obviously we shouldn't be signing players from other SL clubs, because it shows they have no loyalty. What a cack of sh*t. He's a professional and will sell his talents where he wants, as long as he sees out his contract with his current club.

Ok Mr Schofield.
I think we should abuse anyone that plays for Rovers or Leeds, especially if there is the slightest chance it will have a negative impact on their performance. Even better if we can find a reason to do so!

| I suspect "slightest chance" is overstating it.
Here's a radical suggestion, instead of baiting the opposition why not cheer on our own players? That's much more likely to have a positive impact on them.

We withdrew our offer because we found out what he (his agent) was up to.

How about we do both like proper fans do? Don't blame those who boo opposition players for a lack of atmosphere.

i am only agreeing with 1865 about him telling lies.of course he isn`t supposed to hang up his boots and retire.the point i am making is lied about not playing for another super league club.anyway,just how long is a club supposed to wait for a player to make his mind up if he is going to stay or not.?

1865 appears to have knowledge of the circumstances, I don't. All I'm saying is (as I understand it) that he (Briscoe) thought he was getting a deal in the NRL, he didn't, and through whatever circumstance, he signed for Leeds, because our deal was no longer available to him. His only other option, in order to keep his word would have been to pack up and retire.
I agree with others that opposition players are fair game for jeering, and general taunting. What I object to, is the downright hatred, and abuse, that was thrown his way on Friday night. He does not deserve that.

| Briliant that a former Hull player did that to them. He's certainly scored some tries against rovers in his career. Didn;t he get 4 in a game last year?

Always liked him. That one where he left a trail of them in his wake at the KC was absolute quality.

He was 8 years old at the time of that try.
Not sure how anyone can have a go at him,gave his all for us and was easily the best winger I've seen at Hull ( even though hull fans still found faults) left at the end of his contact and to better himself, which like Carvell has proved the right decision.

Nah. Colin Best for me, but not much between them. Different styles but both very, very good.

| Shame General Zod can't be called out on his rather definitive condemnations of Tom's ability as a winger:
"He could fill a some kind of niche role as some type of second-rower or loose-forward in years to come but that would need a coach of the ilk as Justin Morgan who would have the vision to create that type of niche role for him - similar to the way JM turned Lovegrove into a forward. I just think if he's left as a three-quarter, he'll end up along the lines of Yeaman. He's simply not fast or agile enough to be a top class winger.
He was at fault for slow and laboured kick returns which invited pressure. As soon he he was removed, the problem was eradicated as the scoreboard proved.
It can't have been nice for the kid to be in a game he could have little effect on due to his lack of athletic ability.
I didn't take pleasure in seeing Tom Briscoe fail."
Not too shabby an effort by him yesterday to win the Lance Todd in record-breaking fashion considering these limitations.

| Poor Zod. I hear the Humber Bridge board has photo's of him on the walls and are ready to detain him if he sets foot on it.

You are quite possibly the single most ineffective troll we've ever had on here. And that's quite some achievement.

It was worth every penny to see him single handedly destroy Rovers.
