Agreed.

If he's anything like his brother he'll have the mentality to cope with it, even if he does have a mare! He's 17, we shouldn't expect much anyway.

yes, i would go with that, give the kid some valuable first team experience, the perfect opportunity to blood him imo

so we bring in jack briscoe against one of the best sides this year yea that makes sence

Jack Briscoe isn't ready from what I've seen. Even in the U20's he's looked suspect as the last line of defence and against the kicking onslaught that's coming from Briers, Myler and Monoghan he'll struggle. I recognise the lack of options but for Jack's sake I hope he's not selected. He's played plenty of Wing - think he'd be better getting a quick taste of SL there before he assumes his role at FB.

Those shouting for Jack to play FB need to give their head a serious bang!

Briers would kick young Jack to death, that said, can't come up with an option that has no draw backs......or fullbacks. Can't imagine he'll go for Hall after Wigan. Berrigan probably has the ability to do well there but is in the halves so i guess it should be one of the Briscoe's........Sean!!!!!!

I just don't see any other option than using Jack.

1. Berro
6. Turner
7. Washbrook

Simply incorporate the fullback as an extra H/B. Put hall in centres.
Or try Manu in the centres again and have burnett in the backrow?

I would hazard a guess that a few people that have put briscoe at fb haven't seen him play and are just agreeing with people or that it's tom brother and expect him to be ready like he was , for me jack isn't ready at all I know were really short at fb but would be a massive gamble that might do more harm than good

If we are to blood Jack, it'd have to be on the wing. Tom Briscoe could handle the FB role I reckon. Maybe worth a shot?

We can't afford to move Berro from the halves. Turner and Washbrook at halves would mean zero tries scored.

Double post google chrome is gonna take some getting use to.

A certain 16 year old made his debut for Hull FC at full back against Leeds in 1989.

He went on to play for Great Britain and is I believe out top scorer in SL.

Now it's Jack Briscoe's turn to step into the spotlight.

Any other 'solution' just weakens out already depleted half back and centre options.

i just cant see why putting a young jack briscoe against a very good side would benefit jack briscoe

Double testimonial then
