Hey with all the talk of last night, wonder who would win a sprint between the Briscoe brothers then?

So bickering aside, with Jack Briscoe get a game next week with Tansey been banned?

I would play him if Horney is not fit and move Whiting to 7.

I'd play him anyway in front of Whiting at FB.

Whiting has to play 6 with Washy at 7 for me if we dont have other options.

Would be amazed if Agar gave him his debut away from home against a Wigan side fighting to overtake Wakey for 5th spot.
Bradford at home the week after with his home fans behind him would seem a better option to me.
Have only seen him play a couple of times but he looks to be a bit special and it wouldnt surprise me if, after a big off-season, he doesnt make one of the wing spots his own next season and gradually makes the full back spot his own.

Definately cover for next season. To get a regular space he would need to push one of Calders, Raynor, Tom Briscoe to one side. Guess it depends too whether Tom nails down a centre spot. Could end up with a Briscoe and Briscoe wing/centre partnership



Fair point about the Wigan game. I'd still be tempted as there will be less pressure away from home as our first teamers keep telling people. Would be good to see him given a game though in one of the games at least.

Dont forget in about 3 years we could have all 3 Briscoes in the team

Jack and Tom Briscoe, Rhys Lyn and Craig Hall - those four in the backline will certainly add some pace to our side over the next couple of year or so.

Yes you are right, however we will have to change our game style and become more expansive to utilise these players.
I am hopeing we start to do that from next season.

Rhys Lynns a full back isnt he?

Heard some good things about him, never seen him but a few people have said he plays similar to the way Karmichael Hunt plays.

Thought he was a centre?

Or Winger seems to play a lot of centre though!

His pace and athleticism will make him a Super League winger. His lack of basic rugby skills and nous will stop him from becoming a Super League centre in my opinion.

just to make sure, we are talking about a 16 year old?

That's what I was thinking.

Same here!



Bit harsh RBA.

Explain to me how bigging up a 16 year old by predicting he has a future in Super League is harsh?
I know you havnt seen him play mate but trust me he will be a winger and not a centre.

Saying he "lacks nous" is a bit of a giveaway R.B.A

when your kids do well at school do you punch them in the face?

Seen him play a couple of times and can see that he is a great athlete.



You have claimed he doesnt have the 'nous' to be anything other then a winger at the tender age of 16 is just wrong!

No, but my eldest let a goal in through his legs at football this morning so he is still in the back garden now doing press ups.

i should say so as well! but you should be joining him for letting him play football!

Dont worry it is only a summer holiday thing. Rugby is his first love even though he does insist on playing for West Hull.

You need to watch this kid play, he has a big future ahead, he is 16 yet to fully develop in both size and gain experience with the big boys, he could well be a centre imo as I believe a lot of players with strength and pace can cover both positions, an example being Tom Briscoe who has mainly covered wing, however will develop into the centre.

ive watch reece play alot and his passing skills are poor for england under 16s player but that wont hold him back , he has got some nous about him he learns from every mistake he makes which is alot more then others do. as for jack his passing skills are not the best either but he as the ability in the other areas
