Have passed to Horne.


For me i think the full back had lined up Horne and would have took him straight away.

Apart from that, i think the kid looked strong, still a bot of rawness in his game but he's in there to learn and the lad done good

Yes I think he should. However, was a great break from Briscoe and everything he does will be a learning curve for him.

Made several runs all of which made yards. Good performance by the young lad.

the player bewtween them wouldve cut it out i reckon

The kid is the most difficult player in our team to put down, he's incredibly strong.

His leg power is awesome! The kid is gunna be hard to leave out when raynor's fit and personally he'd be my preference! Shouldn't of passed, as you say horne was being lined up.

The Wigan player would of definately got it, good performance from Tom tonight.

Why does he have to be left out, he is effectively putting himself in the shop window for the vacant centre position

He certainly is. Tom has a huge future in the game. He'll get stronger and with experience he has the potential to be one of the best three quarters in SL.

To be honest Graeme Horne was excellent tonight, so there are a lot of options.

The new Teveita

Graeme had a good solid game, good to see him kick on from last year but on a couple of occasions I felt he needed to pass the ball to give Calders a run

When he got the chance he just booted it down field

Yeah I know what you mean but Calderwood didn't look comfortable against Richards all night so I think Horne thought his strength would be the better option on a few occasions.

OMG I agree with bighead

, Briscoe made the right choice in keeping hold of it.

Briscoe and Raynor. Calderwood is the new Blacklock.

I'm amazed how freakishly strong Briscoe is. His leg power to pull his self out of tackles is brilliant. As for putting himself in the shop window, with him playing on the wing for us at the moment. We don't really get to see what his passing game is like (Will he be another Yeaman?). Also how well could he read the game? Has he got the rugby brain to be a centre or is he best suited on the wing?

The first half Briscoe made some cracking runs and made more yards than a lot of players. Good performance and considering his age he can only get better.

Spot on. Excellent decision, looks better the more he plays!

Yep, the pass wasn't on then and neither was it when Thorman was looking for support with a Wigan player again between Horne and the ball.

Generally, Briscoe was great tonight. A couple of defensive lapses, jumping the line and leaving his winger, but with the ball he's ridiculously strong.

Glad to see the shoes are back. Keep em coming... fnaaar fnaaar

Imo Briscoe was awesome tonight, made some excellent runs, came in field well looking for action. The kid is a beast, his power and strength for his age is something very special, just about every time he runs the ball he takes 3-4 defenders out of the game. Can't wait to see his power and strength when he's fully developed. What a future this guy has got in the game, i'd slam a 6 yr contract on his head now.

1 thing for sure is when Raynors fit Agar is going to have one major selection headache, will he drop Briscoe or will he play Briscoe in the centres with Calderwood outside of him or will he drop Calderwood and keep Briscoe on 1 of the wings. On the evidence of all the games i've seen him play, and i'm talking last season too, Briscoe has deserved his place in the team and shouldn't be left out for nobody.

I think Briscoe will be a direct replacement for when Raynor hangs his boots up in a few seasons.

Played awesome last night, and dont think he was at fault to be honest... played great and seems to have come on a lot in defence over the off-season, looking forward to watching him this season, think he's going to be one of our best players.

We should play him at fb - he's bettr than Motu

Right decision for me. Would have been a very risky pass and on early in the tackle count it's always better to play safe IMO.
