It's not what I would do personally, but we all know, deep-down, that Agar will play Hall as the FB.

I'd give Jack Briscoe a go. Essentially, it's a choice between him and Hall. However, we know that we won't have Hall next season, and we know that has is generally naff at FB, so I'd give Briscoe the game. he's a guy we're gonna have for the next season, at least, and he's been training with the firstteam squad, so I think he should get his chance. our play-off place is secured, so he won't have as much pressure on him as he could've had. That said, if he played Warrington would certainly target him.

He wouldn't. He shouldn't. He might...

Yes.

Hall to play and to be a revelation; scoring tries from distance and making 12 try saving tackles when one on one with Matt King. Posters on this board to maintain they always rated him and bemoan the fact a great talent has slipped through our fingers.

If Hall's going to play i'd rather he play centre and Turner moves to FB.

Or see how hall is at Fb and if he seems to be failing swap it up.

I was going to suggest the water boy then I remembered who was the water boy on Friday



Berro h/back defending f/back best option...maybe too much for young Jack Briscoe, Warrington at their place is not the ideal place to blood a youngster.

Would love that

I'd rather he play for Warrington.

Cant we do what junior teams do and borrow one of there players

If Turners 'effort' against Wigan is anything to go on, I'd sooner it be Jack Briscoe.

There's no way Jack Briscoe will start at full back, nor should he for my money. It would be out of character for our coach to pitch an untried youngster in, and against this company could set him back. possibly put him on the wing and move his brother to fullback, or move Tom Briscoe to fullback and put Hall on the wing.

Will we be able to give J.Briscoe a game?

The salary cap allows you to spend 50k on players outside the top 25 earners, if they play a game their salary for the whole season counts a part of that 50k, with us giving games to Cunningham, Nicklas and Lynn, do we have room in the 50k to give J.Briscoe a game?

well if we can play j. briscoe then i would play him, craig hall is leaving and id rather see what jack can come up with. wasnt it wire away in 2008 when tom was 17 and played?

His brother managed it?

No other option. Has to go with Jack. Nothing to lose.

Give Leeds a ring, i'm sure they'll lend you a few more

Would be mad to go with Hall, as he is already on his way out and has never done well at FB. With Horne & Whiting out it makes the most sense to bring in the U20's FB. As for Wire not being an ideal place to blood a youngster, maybe not but when is the time?
Saints have no problem bringing in their youngsters to cover positions and it hasn't done them any harm. If he has a mare, he will pick himself up and carry on if he is anything like his brother.

Agreed.

If he's anything like his brother he'll have the mentality to cope with it, even if he does have a mare! He's 17, we shouldn't expect much anyway.

yes, i would go with that, give the kid some valuable first team experience, the perfect opportunity to blood him imo

so we bring in jack briscoe against one of the best sides this year yea that makes sence

Jack Briscoe isn't ready from what I've seen. Even in the U20's he's looked suspect as the last line of defence and against the kicking onslaught that's coming from Briers, Myler and Monoghan he'll struggle. I recognise the lack of options but for Jack's sake I hope he's not selected. He's played plenty of Wing - think he'd be better getting a quick taste of SL there before he assumes his role at FB.

Those shouting for Jack to play FB need to give their head a serious bang!
