Was he, can't say I noticed.

Obviously you did though

I'd be really angry if haynes doesn't get the fullback place.
He's the first choice reserve full back, and is pretty good too tbh.
Briscoe out, then you play cockayne. Cockayne out, then you play next in line. It's got to be haynes.

I'Ianson is not a full back, isn't capable of returning the ball too well in situations like a full back does

Hello James

Ben Cockayne please.

Bentham with Silverwood as VR

Briscoe's main weakness too, doesn't mean he can't play there.

You are joking, aren't you?

you really do bring laughter to this forum





you really do

What???? You're joking aren't ya.
Just watch the easter derby from last season and tell me Briscoe can't run the ball out. He ran it about 30 metres to set the play going that led to the drop goal

Briscoe is quality, but, when running the ball out he rarely breaks the 1st tackle, he was the same for us.

i wasnt going to reply to this as i thought it was the worst attempt at getting a bite ever......... now that ive realised your serious - it concludes you have no knowledge of the game at all.



Running the ball out is a big asset that Briscoe carries - he runs at full speed into the defensive line and makes a huge amount of yards from it - surely this isnt a new part to his game

, as we all know he was a great FB at FC aswell.

Thats their problem you see,he no longer plays for them so is now not the player people claim him to be

He is the same player he was at FC.

What a silly and sweeping generalisation. Briscoe left us 2 years ago and some of us still aren't over it. Top full back, top bloke. Our loss, your gain and the worst playing roster decision (of many bad ones) apart from Reardon in the last few years at FC.

Unfortunatly no he isn't.
Kinda sad isn't it, I would call him clueless but Agar would take offence

I am over Briscoe leaving and still have a lot of respect for the guy, i'm also pleased he's finally got in the England squad, he deserves it, he's strong in nearly every aspect of a full back's game. I was merely pointing out the one area where, in my opinion, he could be better, sorry if i don't agree with people on here that think he's perfect, but there must be some reason why he's been overlooked all these years.

Paul Wellens.

What about when Wellens was injured and they overlooked him for Melling from Quins?

He's no Slater (but then who is?) but I would take his defensive and positioning skills over the ability to make an extra couple of metres running back any day of the week!

Shut up nugget







, you still missing him?

Justin will probably struggle without Charlie tonight.

Because he wasn't playing for a fashionable club?

Do I detect a sniff of sarcasm there?

Yea.....but that argument still applies.
