Spot on Kosh. He thought he was worth more than we were prepared to pay, partly due to an impending GB call up. He left and we utilised Motu.

As for now, he looks past his best to me and has lost that yard of pace that took him through gaps and made him such a good support player. It's a no from me.

Not for me thanks.

No thank you, not in this lifetime !!



If anyone thinks that he would be a good addition to our squad now, they haven't seen how far backwards he's gone !

I rated Briscoe when he was with us, would have preferred he stayed. However, as others have said, we probably had his best years and they appear to be behind him now. There are a couple of British fullbacks worth looking at in Melling and Grix IMO, and I'm a fan of Owen if Castleford would part with him (but I don't think they will), but if we can't get one of those we'd be better off using a quota spot for fullback (not Minichiello though).

not sure how true this is but was told that when Hull offered him the inital contract Shaun wanted too sign, it was his agent who stated he would get a better deal elsewhere and asked if he could look around and see what offers he could get, Hull allowed this but put a deadline on the contract they had offered.

Now from what I'm told Shaun didn't know about the deadline as his agent didn't tell him about it and when shaun had had enough and went back to the club the deadline had elasped and Hull had quite rightly and needing too get the squad sorted reallocated the money elsewhere. so obviously no deal could be made and Shaun ended up going too rovers on a lower deal than Hull had offered.

So in my eyes the person at fault was Briscoes agent David Howes...

According to the Dentist Diary at the time he was told by his agent to wait for his international call up in the Mid season international because that would give him a better bargaining position with HUll Fc to get more money, he took that advice and the rest you put is right!

Scott Grix please!

Has there ever been a player who has taken more bangs to the head than briscoe? I just hope there is no lasting damage to his brain

was a very good player for us but for the last 1 or 2 been very poor looks like hes lost a bit of pace, matty bowen for me on a 3 year deal would be fantastic. we be great to see briscoe jnr have a game at fullback against oldham and see how he goes and maybe a couple of games before the season out

If there is,he can start posting on here.
