Its 3 Fooking years maybe 6 at the most! get a backbone and live ya life kid. Because when it's over it's over a long time. He would be home every 9 months for a few months anyhow
I've got the best mates in the world and amazing parents and family! But moving over here is by far the best thing I have ever done. I travelled the world with work for 10 years so I know how small the world is.
Tomkins would be a total fool to turn it down if it came his way.'"
Maybe the lad is just happy where he is playing and winning trophies for his home town team and representing his country whilst spending time with his family and friends.
If that's what makes the lad happy then it's his life and doesn't make him narrow minded. To think everyone should think in the same way would seem narrow minded.

Maybe! But in an era where our players can really be the best tomkin has a chance to be just that? Can he win a golden boot from sl? maybe it has been done before. I don't need to tell you lot who(but at the disgust and disbelief of the aussies) i think he would do it if he goes to the nrl.

If believing we should all try and reach our full potential and see how far we can go with the gifts we were lucky enough to be born with is narrow minded then maybe I am mate.

| If I was Richardson/Crowe I would probably take a punt on Tomkins.
I'm not sure he would make the grade but no harm in giving him benefit of the doubt.

It's all speculation that the lad wouldn't want to go anyway and to me he doesn't seem the sort of lad that would shirk any challenge 'eventually'.
As it is he's basically a kid still and if he needs the support of his family then that's his choice. He's not exactly playing in a non challenging environment anyway.

That's your opinion about what people are thinking. I couldn't give a fook if he stays or goes in regard to my own team or Wigans strength.
With me living over here it's great seeing more guys come out. it's great for our national team. But most of all it's about lads taking the game to the next level in the best comp. The time has never been more right for our lads to go over and do it.

He is just a troll, he spends most of his time on the VT trying to derail threads. He is the 2nd reincarnation of League Freak. After Barry McKenzie, now he is PHIPPS. Leave him be, taking him on is only giving him what he wants.

Two-three years ago maybe, don't think he's progressed in that time, plus it seems he's forever injured as well.

No thanks would rather give some of the younger lads a chance over Briscoe.

Agreed think he is an outstanding talent he will go on in my opinion to become an excellent strike centre, his younger brother Luke is also an excellent prospect.

Very highly, great feet, good speed and very good acceleration. The only think is that he not very tall, so would come under pressure with the high kicks.

A centre/wing partnership of Briscoe and Charnley would be very exciting.

Thnx Rogues. His height shouldn't be to much of an issue if his technique is right. You only have to look at the likes of Webb at Leeds and Slater who aren't the tallest, yet perform well under the high ball.

Salivating at the thought of it.

Certain players are worth forking out a transfer fee for. Tom Briscoe definitely qualifies as one. It's not often we produce top quality British backs. An outstanding talent who is completely wasted at Hull FC with Richard Agar as a coach.

| We are talking about Briscoe at Hull FC here right?
Never looked that good for me and the stats don’t seem to stand out either,
Vs the other England winger Hall;
[urlhttp://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics_player.php?hs1=2010&hp1=2918&hs2=2010&hp2=3197&stat=tries&season=2011[/url
vs Jodie Broughton
[urlhttp://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics_player.php?hs1=2010&hp1=4877&hs2=2010&hp2=3197&stat=tries&season=2011[/url
vs a mediocre SL winger in Hodgson
[urlhttp://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics_player.php?hs1=2010&hp1=573&hs2=2010&hp2=3197&stat=tries&season=2011[/url
vs another winger who was at a low placed side
[urlhttp://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics_player.php?hs1=2010&hp1=2434&hs2=2010&hp2=3197&stat=tries&season=2011[/url
vs the evil one Karl Pryce
[urlhttp://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics_player.php?hs1=2010&hp1=1893&hs2=2010&hp2=3197&stat=tries&season=2011[/url
Briscoe is over hyped and massively over rated.
