Maybe Herbert could be utilised working on the turn-styles? there's no more loose change to drop..

Seriously, i don't see him as a 13, average Stand Off yes.

Attacking wise Briggs has shown some nice touches. But his defence has left a lot to be desired. Don't think us fans appreciate the step up from part-time Championship to SL.

I think it's a superb move has palying in the u20's for 3 weeks, then SL one week wouldn't have helped him develop IMO. At Quins he will hopefully get up to speed and improve as a player. Hopefully put on a bit of timber. I'd like to see him next year for us after he's got his first SL season under his belt

Herbert is taller than Sinfield and less that 10kg lighter than Sinfield. Really not built for loose forward I see.

when did i say that, cb?

I rememebered reading it on here and thought it was you. Apologies if I was wrong

Nope, i say i dnt rate him as high as other and isnt that gud, not that he's no gud. apology taken

As I have said before, Royston is doing just fine.

(and before the usual suspects come on here banging on about HB being a harder position to play in, why then is Briggs somehow free of criticism yet it is open season on Herbert who, of a similar age, has travelled half-way round the world to play for us? He does not appear to be getting any time to adapt.)

I believe Briggs was seen as a future prospect and we got him this season to stop another SL club doing the same, hence why he was given a longer deal !!

As for Herbert he still has the rest of the season to shine which i believe he will, i think he has the quality to make it in SL and for the Bulls, but with a few games under his belt and a gelled HB combination it will be a good end to the season as long as the pack can continue to work hard.

I'v put my mortgage on him scoring a hat-trick for quins next game.

Good job you rent.

like I said last night, personally I'd give him more gametime here as I'm not convinced with herbert. But If he isnt going to get gametime with us, he's better off playing at SL level than at u20s and at least any mistakes he makes (and hopefully learns from) will be at someone elses expense.

Well the teams hes possibly got if picked is Wakey, HKR, Salford, Wigan and Warrington. So he has arguably 2 of the worst defensive sides in super league there. So hopefully he turns on the style against them and show he is good enough for super league

More like pays board to the folks

First of all, as has been stated elsewhere on this thread, there is only ten months between them so all this "future prospect" stuff is a load of toilet. He was bought to fill a vital role and he hasn't and by god we needed some quality in the halves. The academy, U16's and U20's are where the future prospect lie.

As for your second point. What other SL club exactly. As often gets pointed out on here he joined us late and had little or no pre season. Therefore this suggests that we did not have to act that fast now doesn't it?
