joined 2104 , 9 yrs maybe a reduced contract ?

It was dirtier but there was also more willingness to move the ball and take more risks and in short iMo it was
More entertaining. Defences were significantly weaker which also helped.
As part time players it was a different world

frustration as much as fondness 2 yorkshire cups and a jp the old league cup was a sp period not helped by wigan being 99% pro when others part time. Trying to catch up in the 90s nearly bamkrupted both clubs with leeds 2nd in everything finishing with the embarassing premiership. BUT it was different as part time people worked with the players , drank with them , players from different clubs mixed sunday night. And here was skill even when the aussies upped physicallity /athleticism in the backs they had ella lewis sterling mennnga kenny followed by lyons and stuart

Never been the player he was at Hull , before we signed him. Has fallen well behind many other wingers in the game . Always had an error in his game / shows little enthusiasm at times and should never have been given his latest contract . Will be glad to see the back of him - not a fan.

Briscoe has developed into a winger who tries to do hard yards from our line. He has good leg drive but not really the body mass to be effective in this. My problem is more some of the errors of judgement, particularly in D, and I just can't remember him making a long break for absolutely ages (despite the fact he is obviously still quite quick).

As I expected, Hull FC in his testimonial game.
