With two young centres in Briscoe and Hall I would be dispoitted if there played G Horne there next season.
The above tow should be fighting out the right centre spot IMO. |

| Quote: Big Dave T "Briscoe is pacey but i remember Raynor chasing Calderwood down a few years ago.'"
The only time I can remember a chase between those two, was when we were playing Leeds at home, the game were it was 0-0 at half time. Raynor broke through and was running to the line, and Calderwood chased him down and from behind, knocked the ball out of his hand and it went dead, preventing Raynor from scoring.
For what its worth I think its a very good signing. For me, he is the best possible signing we could of made. We have no quota spots and any non-fed places we have left need to be used elsewhere. He has pace, has some good qualities and always rated him a lot when at Leeds. Said this tons of times, but players very rarely go to Wigan and improve themsleves, and most leave Wigan and improve themselves. I think Calderwood will do the same, if we actually use the right hand side properly |

Hall dodgy in defence. Briscoe still very young and inexperienced. Together with Calderwood, it would be a try fest down that side |

[quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |

We'll see but Briscoe is good enough now and needs to be given plenty of game time at centre. |

Briscoe, Byrne or Hall to play there next season, Briscoe would be my preference at the minute both defensively and in attack. |

I'd choose Hall every day of the week. Our best attacking player, and yet we leave him out when we have the worst attack in the league. It doesn't make sense to me. Backs of:
Tony
Calderwood
Yeaman
Hall
Raynor
Horne
Dykes
Is just the equation for plenty of tries. Hall is the only bed defender out of those, and even then I would only consider is defence inconsistant |

Whilst i agree the dropping of Hall annoyed me greatly also i now think Briscoe must be developed into one of our centres for the immediate future.
He reminds me so much of Schofield at that age. I know Schofield came into a supreme team full of experienced players which is different to what Briscoe is doing. But i still feel he has similar skills which must be utilised now.

Agree, Briscoe is a good player, but at 18 still developing both physically and with his game. He needs a good centre to learn from. If thats the right side partnership for next season then Leeds, Saints, Wigan, Bradford will all exploit it  |

I'd go with that, think using Briscoe week in/out would be a mistake. Don't want to burn the guy out but he should be first one in should there be any loss of form or injuries. After than I would use Byrne, although Byrne will get the nod as he occupies a quota space 
Horne/Whiting I would rather see used in the back three of the pack.
