Quote: tino "lee briers has done the first 2

briers hasn't led us out at wembley and hasn't done any of the international things but to be fair when i watched mike gregory play i was always a lot less bothered about what he did for gb than what he did for wire, maybe that's just my preference though...but now i think of it how about the wales aus game when briers demolished them?

but then look at all briers scoring records which mike gregory didn't have and when wire have been through poor times when we struggled to score we always looked to briers, even remember him scoring something like 3 drop goals in a game once to beat halifax
in my eyes what was most important was that mike greg made going to wilderspool worthwhile and briers has done the same at wilders and at hj, absolute legend and thoroughly deserves the title, never even particularly been one of my favourite players but i can appreciate that the guy has been a top servant to our club and i really think other people should appreciate this too

just alright? no chance'"


Wasnt it 4 drop goals? then we got beat??

No point living in the past though

You're only as good as your last game

Everyones been posting at how 'Awesome' he was yesterday, he was nothing more than average IMO however it was his best game of the season, doesnt really say much about his previous matches though

I think if Smith can find a way to challenge & motivate Lee Briers, then he still has a lot to offer this club. Whilst at the same time, Smith can develop areas of his game, defensive options that he takes etc, then we might yet still be to see the best of Lee Briers. Sean Long isn't the same lethal finisher that he was 5 years ago, and there was a time when his form dipped, it looked like he may leave Saints, even come to us. What Saints managed to do was sell a different role to him within the team, for him to change his game and he's thrived as has the likes of Pryce and Long has arguably in terms of all round game produced his best stuff, just not perhaps his best individual stuff, which was perhaps when the legs had a yard more pace.

I think the same could be for Briers, physically, he won't be as quick as he was in 2000/2001 doing that Nikau runaround, and dancing through, but in terms of the cliched 'first yard in your head', he's still better than most. I reckon we could get a better team orientated Briers than ever before, guidance, leadership, kicking game etc if he wants it. The fact that Smith made a fuss of him post match, suggests that he's indicated in some way that he's willing to put the work in.

The thing that Smith evidently wants, is for you to do your shift in training, look after yourself, do the right things, eat, sleep, drink etc. If Briers wants to extend his career, and have an Indian summer like Long has done for the last 2-3 years, he's very capable, it's kinda the ball in his court so to speak.

it once said on wikipedia that briers had a wooden leg AND turned up to training on a tractor now i don't really know what else you doubters want from the guy he is a legend end of story anyone who doesn't think he is a legend doesn't get a say in whether he is a legend or not
