Give the lad a contract extension now, whatever we can afford. We've lost one match winner lets not lose another.

Can't blame the lad for wanting to go to Aus, I really hope he see out his Hull contract though.

Hope he's around for 2013. Will be a big loss when he does eventually leave.

Just watched it back. Fantastic game from Tom and outrageous try - there was nothing on when he set off.

Maybe we should be waving a 5 year deal under his nose.

Part of me wants him to go over to the NRL and take his game to the next level for his benefit and the benefit of the National side but then the rest of me thinks sod that do everything we can to convince him to stay.

His best game this season by a mile

I don't know what else he'd learn as a winger within the NRL as to SL . If Hull were to offer him a very good long term deal then that must be financially better than what he'd make in Aus regardless of the exchange rate.

Loved the fact that he skinned mr world XIII ryan hall to score aswell, best game for us this season

World class try by a world class winger.

Spot on. Let him know how much we appreciate him. People talk about offering extensions to Whiting, Sharp and many others (I have no problem with this btw). However this lad is our one truely world class player, he can create something out of nothing as shown last night. He is an immense talent and I would like to see him wearing the B&W for many years to come.

last night we saw a fit Tom Briscoe been carring injury for the last few weeks

This might sound a bit odd, but I don't think that would work, a long term deal. Briscoe clearly has ambitions to go to the NRL, can't argue with that. Hull appear to be back on the up. I'd offer him 3 years and say to him that he is welcome to leave after two years IF we have not reached a final in that period of time.

If we do get to a final (and win it ) that's then when you try and get him on another extended deal when we are on the crest of a wave.

Only my opinion of course.

This is how I've seen it too. I've kind of accepted that he will be going, but how I would love him to stay!

He truly is world class and it's often a privilege to watch him play.

No part of me wants him to go to Aus but I suspect he might. Can't we sign him for 5 years and then do a 2 year loan swap with an Aussie club and get a top player from said club in return ? That would be a way of guaranteeing his return to us. Cloud cuckoo land I know but I don't like seeing international players leaving the club.
