I'd agree with McLinden, not to sure on the others.

I like Greenshields but along with the others, imo, not in Briscoe's class

All of the above can also play in the threequarters, but as much as I love him Briscoe cannot, and in todays game that has got to be a must.
We signed Byrne who can cover equally as good in all 3 positions FB, Centre, Wing, so we have got a 3 in 1 player.

The way your injury list is then it's looking like he'll get the chance to play in those positions in 1 game alone.

As for Briscoe

Top quality FB for feck all

Webb, Greenshields and Wellens would be my top 3 fullbacks in SL.

As I said he is a top quality FB and was sorry to see him leave, but todays game demands that you have versatility, what will your reaction/way of thinking be if GOB ALMIGHTY sees fit to release Briscoe for that same reason, would you accept Morgans reasoning or disagree with it.

Or be the obsequious, fawning sycophant you are.

Mind you don't choke on that dictionary.

Put Wellens in a poor team and he's a nothing player, hes overated and has had it to easy over the past few years. Briscoe outplayed him in every department today.

Briscoe is a class fullback. I am gutted we released him. Such is life. You have yourselves the Gb reserve fullback and a great great player IMO. Gutted.

I wish I could defend the decision of Sharp but simply I can't.

Massive mistake letting him go, glad hes doing well for you.

Sense at last, SB was awsome today should have got
MOM

webb is the best full back in SL!

he has proved his worth in the NRL, SL and on the international stage.

no other full back in SL has done that

greenshields, wellens, briscoe, mathers, thorman and platt are the best of the rest. theres not a lot between em, on their day they can all be quality.

Don't it just stick in the throat.

Wait until the derby's Rovers gonna get u, Rovers gonna get u, Rovers gonna get u, Rovers gonna get u, Rovers gonna get u, Rovers gonna get u, The noise is building, you can't hold back the tide.

nope it doesnt stick in my throat!

the derby result wont bother me! in a leeds rhinos fan!

You could've fooled me.

what ?

season ticket! southstand mate!

Wasn't having a go, just saying

ok no worries

Strange decision given the reducing quota rule over the coming years. That said I'm mighty glad Sharp is a poor judge of talent!

Yep. Among some Sharp can do no wrong, however here he clearly has. A huge mistake letting him go that will haunt us. Briscoe will only get better as well.

Well we'll get to support him again in the future anyway....

















When he gets the GB Full back position.

Read the posts on here some good and bad points on Briscoe.I like my Full-back to be safe under the bomb,deal with the rolling ball and be safe in defence all of which Briscoe are but nowadays the full-back is seen as a "pivot" returning the ball well and linking up well in the back line all of which Tony does well.

I can understand Sharps reasoning for releasing Briscoe( but he wouldnt have been released if he had accepted his new deal on offer at the time),i think even you rovers fans on here will agree that briscoe can only play fullback and cant cover anywhere else(as his performance in the drby battering proved),which i think led to his release and the signing of Byrne who can cover 3 positions.I personally would have kept Briscoe with Motu as cover for fb/wing and hooker but we will have to trust Sharp on this one.

what he said !!

Briscoe was outstanding again for us yesterday, he backed up play well, made good yards on returning kicks, scored a cracking try and he put in 2 monster one-on-one tackles.

I for one was not to keen on the Briscoe signing, I was happy with Charlie at FB but seeing Briscoe's last 2 performances I think he will become a real fans favorite(if not already one). 100% effort and commitment!

Plus I believe Hull will be looking at signing a specialist FB for next season.

I hope its Mclinden.
