[b:1crbsr9w] Toulouse for Championship in 2017, Super League in 2021! Avignon for Championship in 2021, Super League in 2022! [/b:1crbsr9w]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_18302.png



Thomas Briscoe's 5 try record was disappointing to me. Had he scored three tries that would have been not so unusual in the modern game. But five tries is exceptional. Does he deserve the acclaim he has been receiving for this in the mass media?

Thomas Briscoe is an above average winger, but not a great winger. He is certainly not in the class of the really great wingers --- Brian Bevan, William John "Billy" Boston, Martin Offiah or Jason Robinson. I don't even think that he is as good as current star English wingers Ryan Hall or Joseph Burgess, who will likely be picked ahead of him in the next English team selection. The fact that Briscoe has marked for himself a special place in the record books, when playing against a very weak and eventually demoralised opposition, gives him a kudos that he doesn't really deserve.

icon_lol.gif The first thing I said when Briscoe went in for his fifth try was ''at least Leroy Rivett is no longer a Wembley record holder!''

[quote="Gotcha in 2016":12w08s93]McDermott is going. I actually think he is more relaxed because of it, and seems to have let the shackles go. He apparently asked to finish the season, and that is what they agreed.[/quote:12w08s93] :lol: :lol: :lol::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_11388.jpg



I know you're trolling and doing it very poorly might I add but Briscoe's been the best winger in SL by a distance this season.
He was on fire before his injury and now, 2-3 games back, he's pretty much carrying on where he left off.

"The Golden Generation finally has its Golden Fleece! They have Wembley Cup Final winners medals to add to their collection." 23/08/2014:



Tom Briscoe's legacy = 5 tries at Wembley

Todd Carney's legacy = urinating into his own mouth

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.

Even the most liberal among us must have their belief in freedom of expression sorely tested by the originator of this thread.

[b:1g6itio7][color=#000000:1g6itio7]Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.; [/color:1g6itio7][/b:1g6itio7]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_663.jpg



Really needs help

French and likes Hull KR has to be a link to some form of mental common sense block.

For the record Tom took all his tries well and as a winger was in the right place at the right time and in my book is a great winger. Nothing should ever detract from his performance on the day.

"great winger?" So you are ranking him with Brian Bevan, William John "Billy" Boston, Martin Offiah or Jason Robinson?

Out of order and very sloppy!!! It is Brian Eryl Bevan & Jason Thorpe Robinson.
