More than twice as many yards in more than twice as many carries.
Compare meters per carry and briscoe come out on top (just).

Force Briscoe to do as many carries as Fox and then Briscoe would't make anywhere near as many yards as Fox.

given he makes more yards/carry I'd suggest you're wrong.

You do realise that Briscoe missed over half of our season?

| Quote ="CHURCHILL"icon_lol.gif As in?'"
No signings of note, your own fans admitting youve got a weaker squad this season, strong rumours about poor finances, non-sustainable business as admitted by your ceo etc etc
There a lot of nervousness amongst rovers fans at the minute whether you admit it or not. On the other hand we had a dire season and things can only get better for us, theres a general feeling of positivity in our camp.
Did that answer your question?

thought we were having a serious conversation?
You putting Fox above the aussie wingers? Fwiw Fox is nowhere near the quality of Ryan Hall for me never mind the aussie backs.

| Quote ="General Zod."I think the main reason behind picking Briscoe is helping to halt Inglis with his contact in the tackle as he'll be defending that side of the pitch with Smith. Briscoe will have to up his work rate significantly though in terms of taking work off the forwards.
The position has been lost by Fox rather than won by Briscoe and I think this serves as a harsh reminder to Fox that he needs to stop having poor performances.
I think he'll get a crack against the Kiwis and lets hope he shows his best form which is why he made the dream team this year.'"
You also thought he'd get a crack against the aussies

tbf he does say potentially, in much the same way that when I went to see Up 'n' Under on Tuesday, Abi Titmus could have potentially invited me back to her hotel room after the show.

I think that the opposition tend not to kick to Briscoe as he has a very strong carry. Teams will, on the whole, favour kicking to one winger most of the match and wales obviously pinpointed fox as the one they'd rather pepper with the ball

| Fox is a GOOD winger but he is not international quality.
Briscoe is already a better winger than Fox and has the potential to become a world class winger.
You lot are saying if Fox did not dip form at the end of the season he would be in front if Briscoe which is true, but if Briscoe did not get injured and played all of the season like Fox then im sure Briscoe would of been ahead of fox
Its all if's and but's. Briscoe is better end of

Why exactly? He's been kept in the England team on the basis of things he hasn't done wrong rather than things he's done right and that's not what it's all about for me.
There's not another winger in SL who could have scored the try Fox score against Catalan's away last year - no-one.

| personnaly i'd pick fox but it would seem smith has a big problem with part of his game, last year he picked calderwood on one performance and this year briscoe on a hand full of games.

I think you'll find it's moments of brilliance like that have not been seen since Offiah and although he's not in that kind of form at the moment he's always got the potential to do that in a game.

you're joking, right? Every time I've watched him, he's been dire.
His non-selection is proof that he really isn't good enough. As for your 'best in the competition' nonsense, you need to take off your red and white glasses and look at the 4 countries competing.

To cut a long story short, Fox is a current dream team winger and it's only missing because of his dip in form.
The best winger of both games so far has been Pelo and Hayne didn't look all that flash considering the season he's had.
