| I was over the moon when Tommy went over for his 5th. That's 2 local lads (well fev) that hold 2 very important Wembley records now. If only the flat cappers could keep hold of their talent they produce. I suppose same could be said about most teams though.

| You don't have to be considered one of the greatest wingers of all time to score 5 tries at Wembley - you just have to score 5 tries at Wembley.

As a modern day winger with incredible strength and pace TB is well on the path to be considered one of the top wingers of his era. The kid is ridiculously difficult to put down, gets penalties for fun when bringing out the ball from his 20 which is massively undervalued. He's not your typical uber fast flying winger but he's got a bunch of attributes that mean you'd have him in your side in a heartbeat.
Some of his chase downs to stop tries have been epic, one of the best in the HullvKR derby a few years ago when it seemed a simple run in with a three on one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7HVd1679tY
A couple of seasons ago at home to Widnes a game Hull were strolling Widnes got a break away and Tom ran him down making a stupendous last metre try saving tackle, most players wouldn't have bothered with a 40+point lead.
It shows that he's a tryer and to cap it all he seems to be a pretty decent human being
Froggie, you're an epic fail...do one!

| The best wingers in RL nowadays are rarely fliers as such. They have to be strong in the air in both attack and defence, and able to run the ball back hard.
Someone like Kevin Penny is unlucky to be in the wrong era - 30 years ago he'd have been a star.

| Most tries: 5 by Tom Briscoe (Leeds Rhinos v Hull KR in 2015)
Until someone gets 6 or more it's in the record books whether the Fake Frog likes it or not!
