We super league types no longer listen to you plebs.

There will be no bannings for posting the texts, or indeed for turning back the tides of the mersey if your that way inclined.

But yet you replied

Of course I did.

any news?

Briscoe and Magraff Leuluai on two year deals.

Quite happy with that,when are we going to sign up Kurt?

i hope thats saun not tom briscoe

, good news obviously briscoe is a good english super league standard fullback with experience ect and a good addition for the vikings. not seen much of magraff is he a club trained player?, how old is he? and how good is he and do people think he can play at super league standard?

Delighted with Briscoe.Experienced, safe and confident.No disrespect to the young guns who have appeared at full back for us lately,Hulme,Owens and Craven,but a team with a short arrs in that position will be shown no mercy in SL.None too sure about Leuluai.Runs hard but seems a little lightweight.Perhaps he will bulk up a bit in the closed season.

I think Magraff needs to bulk up alot. Full time environment will obviously aid this.

I wasnt expecting much from him when he arrived from Leigh but I think he has gone quite well to date after losing his place early on in the year.

A solid player in the backrow more than anything who can hopefully take his stability upto SL in his performances.

Magraff has got bags of potential and has all the ingredients to become a quality player, he just needs the coaching and patience in the right places.

briscoe is a very good player to have to pass on experience, guidence all that for the younger players and from what ive seen and read the young players listed have all got bright futures in the game but most probable no were near super league yet. with full time training ect leuluai could easily put some bulk on and get to super league standard physically

Very good question!

I am made up though. Always rated Briscoe and leuluai has been one of our stand outs as of late.

Briscoe is an excellent signing for you. Really, really good pro and still a very good full back. Absolutely no downside.

Good feedback, I don't think there will be a Viking unhappy with this signing, good quality player who knows Super League very well.

Can't get better than that can you

Think Leuluai could be a cracking player myself. Reminds me of a poor man's Sam Thaiday, plays big minutes and always puts his hand up to take it up.

I agree Magraff looks a little lightweight for a forward but some of the hits he puts in against players a lot bigger than him are amazing for somebody his size,imagine what he will be like when he does bulk up.

how about hame lauaki from us seems as though he wont be kept on thoughts?

He's a bit of a penalty machine from what I've seen of hull.

we dont need him now we have Hep 'The Beast' Cahill

With Cockayne leaving the club it leaves our fullback position open to either an under 20's or ano. Briscoe may not have the pace of a Tomkins or Slater but he is tops in position and courage under the ball. You have a good un.

Good solid player but like blakeysrobin says he lacks pace and seems to be a bit injury prone. Mind you I've only really seen him in action for England v Aussies/NZ so anybody would look a bit slow by comparison.

when he first came yeh he did give a few away but completely wiped them from his game rarley gives away pens now would be a good signing for the vikings

woudnt it be better to have 2 beasts in hep "the beast" cahill and hame "the beast" lauaki

any more announcements due to be made? lol
