out of those you mention its only my opinion that he is by far the safest in SL and thats all i want from a FB, safe hands and a fearless nature in defence all of which briscs has in abundance even if he now plays for Rovers!!
, and MOS as we know over the years is somewhat led by those at red hall and based upon Webb last season he is a much better player and played ten times more games too i believe
Just my opinion love

to be honest I dont think I have ever seen a game I can honestly say that Webb has lived up to the superman tag he seems to have aquired, yes he is good with ball in hand but not even close to Briscoe under the bomb and spills lots of high ball as he did at the end of the season , made less of an issue as he had the likes of senior etc protecting him!!
As for Tansey he isnt like any other FB currently in SL is he?? he has a very unique style about him as Barrie Mac said he has an almost Ellery Hanley manner about him when he carries the ball as his leading edge and seems to create tons of time for himself when on the ball but his acceleration is awesome, can wait to see him and some of our speedster youngsters getting a bash in SL together, the ball chase on full backs will be frightening

totally agree. Admittedly I haven't seen all his games and he has been good in some I have seen but the "Superman" thing makes me think he must do something extra off field to earn it.
Does he live in a phonebox? Married to someone called Lois?

I don't like him, but I think he has more impact on a game than Briscoe generally does. More in attack than defence, granted.

He is certainly a superior ball handler but I'm just not that impressed by him overall.

Agreed. Add to that the 10 tries he scored last season and Briscoe is up there with the very best in the league.
Shaun Briscoe is Superman, photographic evidence doesn't lie!

When fully fit he is the best FB in SL bar none. The problem is over the last 18 months he has suffered with his back. For me he does the lot and going forward in particular is superb.

| Quote: GODS UNDERTAKER "agreed, believe he will kick on and cause a lot of teams a lot of issues and does look potentially international class, similar mould to the current Kangaroos full back ...
however Briscoe will still be viewed in our house as one bigone that got away but should not have, best full back in SL by a mile for me !!'"
No chance. Webb, Hogdson and Greenshields are all better.

| Neither Tansey or Shaun Briscoe are fit to lace the boots of Gary Kemble or Arthur Keegan
As far as todays SL fullbacks go though,I think Briscoe would be my call at the moment,thats always providing he survives the bombardment the Aussies are going to give him on Saturday
