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.

I think we will see him back better

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

The further we get into Potters reign, the more I doubt him.

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.
