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.

Quality player! I think McLinden is twice the player Tony is, although not an out and out FB.

hes coming home, hes coming home, hes coming Briscoes coming home




, he might be hinting at waffy ben instead

People are obsessed with us keeping Tony for Briscoe. Sharps biggest error is keeping Sing for Briscoe. How can this man still be on our books, never been 100% fit. You only had ONE full season to suss it out MrSharp and you ballsd it up. Tony could slot almost anywhere covering for the likes of Sing and we could have kept Shaun at no.1. Ridiculous decision. Fair play to rovers for capitalising on our stupidity.

Sing was our top try scorer last season mate.

Yet again though we see some of the worlds best come to Hull and be dubbed rubbish by wannabe coach's.

Rather have Greenshieds now I think.

So do you think Paul you will be looking for another FB for next season?

I doubt it as Motu is contracted and we have other priorities.

Tony isn't bad and infact he brings different things to the full back role which Briscoe didn't, the thing is we won't see them qualities till we have good halfs on the park.

Still I'd rather have Briscoe, prefer my FB's to be more safe and good support play.

See your coming round with the FB pivot role mate



Briscoe is a good FB, safe under the ball, good defense and support play. Where as Motu has them 3 plus more in attack so why would we want to keep Briscoe ?

And why do people think we'll be after a FB for next season

Tonys still under contract next season and will be our no1 again.

Because some people dont rate him?

Well thankfully they are not in charge of our recruitment.

So because some fans dont rate Tony as a FB Sharp will look for a new FB



Okay chief.

Not at all, I think Tony isnt good enough and you will possibly looking for a new FB next season. My opinion, not yours.
