| I think the stranger decision was leaving Briggs out against Quins. He had had a couple of good games prior to this, looked to be developing a relationship with BJ and was due to play against possibly the weakest team in the league and still couldnt retain his place

| That said, there would have been no point playing Herbert this week had he not had a run out last week. Suspect choices last week may have been made with an eye on this week.

| What the hell is Potter watching?! Against Wigan in the cup Briggs gave a good account of himself and showed up well again alongside Jeffries in the Salford game...He is then dropped for Herbert who has yet another shocker at Quins!..Let's hope Kearney gets the nod at SO..

I wouldn't be shocked at that. I don't know why but with Addy not selected I have the feeling that Potter might spring a surprise with Herbert at loose, particularly, if as might be likely given the absence of Hargreaves, we might be expecting Langers, along with the other forwards, to cover the lack of a prop.
It will be interesting if that's how it pans out.

Kyle Briggs conspicuous by his absence tonight, expected to sign for Quins on loan this week.

| Hopefully he will come back better for the experience. Seems to have lots of potential, just hope we see him realise it.

| Hopefully so. A chance to prove he is up to speed and show what he can do.

| I do wonder if people forget that there is only 10 months age difference between Herbert and Briggs.
People refer to Briggs as though he is a youngster.

| Good point.
However, he is non-quota and appears to have at least as much potential as Herbert (assuming he can tighten his defence)

Hmm. Starting to agree with statuses like these. For me, Briggs offers much more than Sherbert.

| Fwiw, this move is fine by me, as long as KB returns to us next year.

Whilst that is perfectly true I think we have to make allowances for someone coming from a lower (semi pro) division. He was also, in the general scheme of things, a late singing who missed the whole of our (full time) pre season preparatory work which put him at another disadvantage.
If this story is true it might be the best thing that could happen for him, and for my two pennorth he has a lot of good things in his game, so let's hope it's the making of him.

I believe he also began life at Leeds before being released, not unheard of for a club to make a mistake letting a good young un go though.

I hope he can improve the weak aspects in his game and prove me wrong. I just haven't seen anything from him that leads me to believe he is one for the future like some are suggesting. He could well develop into a solid SL player but that's about all IMO. I have heard a few whispers of some attitude issues but whether there is any truth there I cannot be sure. There has to be some valid reasons why Potter is not picking him. We aren't exactly blessed in the halfbacks to be letting players go out on loan.
