Sad it ended like this for him, but great for him personally to reach 100 tries. A good way to sign off from some great years at FC.

Thanks for the memories Tom, good luck in the future.

And interesting that Stevo (The Numptie) was very convinced tonight that he is going to Oz. And least we will know pretty soon. Good Luck Tom

Thanks for memories, sorry to see you go Tom.

tom Briscoe will be hugely missed by Hull.......he did not seem to be at his best in recent months but on his day he is an awesome talent.

All the best Tom

Heard he is of to Salford

I said that ages ago, but thought now I was incorrect, as thought he would have been announced?

He'll score 100 try's in 3 years at Leeds. Good luck to him.

Wigan,to replace richards ?

He's coming to Leeds

He is a top quality player, no doubt about it but every time I have seen FC play on Sky his body language has been saying 'I don't want to be here'. I am sure he will be back to his usual form once he has a new challenge.

Whoever he goes to will have a fantastic player on their hands. If its Leeds or Wigan watch him flourish, it will only be then that some of our own fans will realise how good a player he is. Very sad to see him go will be a huge loss but wish him all the best.

thought we might have found out where hes going ?

Waiting for the storm to settle before we announce he's gone to Leeds.

That'll really get the season pass sales flying off the shelves!

How long before Lineham / Shaul / Crooks feel the need to move on in order to further their careers and/or fulfill their potential?

It's yet another problem for the club to address. Not only do we need to develop young players but we also need to give them a framework with which to achieve their ambitions to succeed at the highest level. If we don't then a succession of young players will simply view the club as merely a stepping stone to bigger and greater things with the likes of Leeds & Wigan gaining the best years out of players who start their careers with us.

Tom Briscoe should have been one of the key players for us in what (hopefully) should have been a golden period in the club's history. None of us are totally sure of the reasons behind his departure but our loss is someone else's gain.

If the club wish to challenge at the sharp end, then holding on to young players as they approach their peak years is of paramount importance.
