Briscoe wont have been cheap.

Yes for all the criticism and how things have panned out since signing Briscoe to replace BJB was an improvement on paper and taking a more expensive and again on paper better option.

Briscoe is one of the few if only examples in the last few years of GH signing a player who will have been more expensive and better at the time to improve a position.

Ferres is the another one. Neither has really worked out.

Briscoe worked fine until the 2016 season. He was scoring crucial tries in semi finals, five tries at Wembley and setting up tries in a Grand Final

Ferres hasn't worked out but most senior players looked poor last year. This year he hadn't had a run of games to get any form going to be fair to him.

It's been long layoff - couple of games - long suspension - couple of games - knee injury - first game back which all forwards struggled in.

not looking forward to Wigan next week on this cup display !

After the last one, I'm not looking forward to another Wigan -v- Hull final.

Dropping the ball on his own line in the final minsutes to see us eliminated from the play-offs against Les Catalans,

Briscoe obviously has talents and he has skills, but he was brought in on good money and has always had a bad error in him and got worse and worse. For me a winger on decent money should, at the very very least be anonymous, Briscoe hasnt even reached that level and has for a year or so now been a liability. There are many wingers we could get for next to nothing who can reach the level of 'not a liability'

For a supposed international level player on an international level wage, he hasnt even approached been good enough, he looks fat, he looks unfit, he has been ill-disciplined and made some silly mistakes.

Funny you should say that, I was sat here thinking that Hull would have murdered both Salford and Wigan based on today's game.

now its all over, the pie eaters win with 12 men for 60 minutes of the game too !

name me a player who hasn't dropped the ball in a bad position

Keinhorst the well known pacey winger with and Lilley "the snail". Wow we'll rip top 8 teams apart with that combination.
Our wheels have fallen off big time, it's going to be one hell of a last 8 weeks.

The wheels haven't fallen off, it's one loss FFS against a team that's beaten us, Cas, Saints, Wigan and Warrington in the last 18 months in the cup.

Same garbage was written after every Cas loss this year but yet we're 2nd.

4 big games season. 3 v cas and yesterday. won 0 lost 4.
can we turn it around? yes but it will be the most impressive GF win ever should we do it
to many weak areas for me
