| Quote: knocker norton "You are totally missing the point. Whether or not people think he has a big future is irrelevant to todays game. Briscoe did what was asked of him and was badly let down by players alongside him IMO. No more no less.'"
Agree in a fashion but he just didn't do what he was asked well enough which is why he should not have been picked in the first place because he simply does not have the athletic ability to cope at that level.
Quote: knocker norton "Your tirade against him is unecessary and generally b0ll0cks. You have not said a bad word against any other player tonight.'"
I've nothing against him personally, I'm simply providing analysis of why the substitutions had the effect they did. |

| Quote: General Zod. "I have nothing against the kid at all and I genuinely wish him well for the future because he has the potential to be a decent player.
What is actually more potentially damaging is FC fans "bigging him up" to be something that he isn't.
You've ruined several decent young players over the years by doing this such as Greame Horne, Tommy Lee, Craig Hall etc. etc.
It really doesn't do them any favours because when they day dawns that they don't reach your levels of expectation, you just slate them unfairly IMO.'" Rubbish!, you seem to have a problem with anybody who represents the national side who plays for Hull.(iam not a F.C fan)
The problem was inside Briscoe,take your blinkers off 
The problem was inside T.Briscoe, not the kid himself. |

How do you know Briscoe did what was asked of him? I suspect he was supposed to follow Smith in field rather than staying out wide in defence.That's probably why he was taken off. Having said that, if that was Tony Smith's tactics it shows what a clown he is - you can't give a vastly superior and quicker backline the outside.

He's made 38 posts on Briscoe/Fox tonight so far. Think that goes [iwayyyyy[/i beyond impartial "analysis" TBH.  |

Translated.
Anyway.
West Tigers all-time top appearance holder Ben Galea has stated Peter Fox is the fastest player his has played with or against in his whole career.
His relatively poor performance in the SL fastest man competition was attributable to a specific reason which shall not be posted on this forum. |

At this particular moment in time, I wanted to educate those who disagreed with my views who have this wacky idea that you can beat the Australians with a weak link in your back-three.

Tom Briscoe can't be blamed for the right sided defence shambles.
It happened long before he was called upon to defend.
Where was our right sided backrower? Who was he, Why was he never there?
Squad selection was wrong, team selection was wrong.
Who on earth could pick Moore and Roby ahead of Diskin?
Tony Smith did, it starts there and probably ends there too.

Still, 41 posts now in one evening on the same point. It almost looks like you're trying to make capital out of a 19 year old being played out of position, against the best team in the world, outside a useless centre, just because he plays for Hull FC. Coupled with last night's extended eulogy on how Fox is the only winger to come close to Offiah and I think we can agree that you're labouring the point somewhat. |

Fox would have been left trailing in his wake the same as the rest of the England team |

It appeared that way because he had to overcompensate for a slow right-winger. |
