I wouldn't mind him been put out on loan. Attacking wise i think he's decent, but his defence is very suspect and got found out a few times last year. I hope he has a future with us and it's just a loan to get some confidence

problem with that idea is he came from fev in first place. So is a loan back their going to improve his defence that much. Plus reading their forum sounds like player their announcing is a pemanent signing rather than a loan. Wouldnt be surprised if it is briggs as his face just hasnt seemed to fit with potter, but it could potentially leave us back in situation of looking for a standoff yet again at end of year given jeffries and sammut are both off contract and both potentially might not be retained (BJ due to age, Sammut due to us needing quota spot - either for manase or a new signing).

No rumor, will be confirmed on Sunday.

Ackworth Bull, you do realise that it is against the law to live in our village and support anyone but Fev, I hope the storm troopers from the parish council don't find out about your little secret!!!!

If true then it's a shame that we never even gave him a chance to partner Gale in the halves, but we have to trust MP in situations like this and hope he makes the right decision.
I just hope this isn't an act of desperation to get some cover in for positions where we are weakest (Pryce/Joseph) and Kyle has been the one to fall on the sword as it were. I reckon if we'd managed to offload Sykes/Platt then Kyle wouldn't be going anywhere.

Are you sure you Fev supporters wouldn't rather take Paul Sykes off our hands? He's awesome, honest!

Surprised he wasn't given a chance with Gale. Reckon he could offer more than Jeffries if coached right.

Very true Pal, at least Briggsy knows how to move and what a rugby ball is

Only Potter knows why Briggs is being left out of the team (at least for the moment).
A decent attacker last season, and yes - not so good in defense but he wasn't the only one in that area.

Featherstone are unveiling a new signing on Sunday at their friendly with Oldham. One which to quote the club, 'signals their intent'. Whether Kyle Briggs fits into the category...

Back to where he belongs then. Never an SL player in a million years. Which, of course, I got slated for suggesting some time ago. Funny that.

If he does go, has he really been given a chance to prove himself? Signed as a great prospect, fantastic first 30 mins at Cardiff, got injured and, err, out on loan, breaks arm, comes back, cheerio!

He certainly played like someone who knew he was on the way out at Keighley. It must have been a good half hour before I realised he was playing.

Probably feels more comfortable being a big fish in a small pond. Maybe there are other issues regarding attitude etc.

Presumabely we've lost the rumoured £50k we paid too. Nice bit of business for Fev that.

The two tries came direct from his kicks and he scored one of them.

On him being a SL player if the Bulls had applied that criteria over the previous seasons we'd have turned without a full team. He should have got more chance in front of the truly woeful Herbert and on the opportunites afforded him can't say he's any worse than BJ. we're showing Briggs the door after 7 games while Sykes is still at the club (for 2 more years) . Great stuff.
