so,basically you are saying he's quite happy to stay at Hull and never have a chance of winning anything rather than move on to a top club ?
let's forget the Menzies embarassment and ask why he was even unable to catch Damien Blanch who isn't the quickest winger in the world ? I wouldn't even put him in front of Vaccari & Stacul and there's a guy at Toulouse,Greg White who would leave him standing...'"

at least spell my name correctly - merci
Blanch isn't what you would call 'quick' (like Menzies ) ok ?
so if this so-called 21 year old wunder kind can't catch these guys ? well maybe he's a bit over-hyped ?
you keep on biting and i'll keep on feeding you,monsieur Le Peg.....

| Ignore the troll, Briscoe would getting into any SL side, name 2 wingers at any club better than him?
Briscoe caught Menzies, who had a 30 meters head-start, and nearly put him into touch, great skill by Menzies to put the ball down.
I love the fact he is having a good at people's spelling when he doesn't know who to use capital letters and fullstops.

I'm not biting at anything mate. I know that when you started posting stuff about briscoe you meant it. You're posting history proves you're not trolling for bites.
Tell you what, you start a thread on the VT asking which clubs' fans would take briscoe and see what people say?

don't be a silly billy ! is your middle name 'Piranha' or what ? Carry on like this and you'll need another set of dentures
As a long standing Saints (Longy ) fan I can honestly say I would take a chance on him cos' I feel he [ucould[/u become a very good player within a better coaching set-up.
But I suppose you'll consider that to be just a wind-up ?
Happy nibbling & joyeuses Pâques

I don't think wire would.
not because he isn't good enough for us, he is and would improve our team imo.
But we have an embarrassment of three-quarters and struggle to play them all.
And at the money he could command i reckon another team could offer him more under the salary cap
(cue all the wire salary cap comments)

phew ! that's a relief !
still beats me why Saints didn't offer him a two year contract,(especially with the Eastmond fiasco) in the same way the Bulls let Menzies leave ?
funny old game innit ?

Your clearly a moron. How did Phelps do his job very well when fox simply stepped him and would have walked in under the posts had Tom not caught him? Phelps did not prevent Fox scoring at all he simply slowed him down slightly allowing Brisoce to actually stop him. If Phelps had done his job "very well" he would have tackled Fox himself.

| Actually Phelps was very good as was Briscoe. They both kept their heads looked at what the the other was doing/where each was going and Fox was under pressure because of it and slowed to step inside. Thought they worked well together with Phelps doing enough to allow Briscoe to make the easier tackle from behind.

thanks for those kind words
as a self-confessed moron who has little experience of RL it seem to me that Mr Phelps did his job and closed Mr Fox down enough to put him off his stride.This,as any one not wearing Black & White will comprehend,unless he or she is a complete cretin,enabled Mr Briscoe to make the tackle to preveny the try.
Mr Briscoe was a beaten man,not his fault,he just had too much to make up on Mr Fox on his own.It's not a crime to be outrun especially when the leading man has such a big start.I can't think of many SL players who would have caught him.
Not a criticism of young Tom,just a plain fact.

is it a prerequisite for a mod to be totally clueless about the basics of the game or are you naturally lacking any coomon RL sense ?

isn't the whole idea of a forum to air ones opinions ?
Facts are useful to throw around as one wishes but going on what i've seen with my own eyes from very close distance young Tom wouldn't have caught Fox in the time he had available without the Phelps intervention.
just an opinion,that's all.

I agree, Phelps tap slowed Fox's momentum, however Briscoe was as ever remarkable the way he shot across the pitch to be there at the right time.

| It was the angle of Phelps' run that caused Fox to slow and change direction not so much the contact he made. What Tom did well was rather than just ran after him from behind he ran inside anticipating Fox would have to cut inside. That was a clever read of the play.
It doesn't get away from the fact that Tom left his wing in the first place and that Phelps got him out of the pickle with good fullback play....he deserves more praise than he is getting!!
