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

In a sense we wouldn't be changing berro's attacking responsibility, just his defensive, so on the attack he would basically play 7 as normal.

Or 1999

I don't understand where the calls for Jack come from, there has been no mention of him making the squads this season or him ripping it up in the reserves.

Like it or not the is no option other than bringing Hall into the side and probably play him at fullback, either him or Turner. As has already been said Berro could defend at fullback which would help.

Jack Briscoe shouldnt be anywhere near the 17 for friday. We are playing away from home, on sky television, against a team with one of the best tactical kickers in super league, and people are seriously suggesting that we should throw in a 17/18 year old who has no super experience whatsoever? Get real people. And as for us having 'nothing to lose' well how about the kids confidence for a start? Its hardly the time or place for us to be considering giving someone a debut who has not yet competed at this level, nor would it be fair on him. I would put Berrigan there when we are defending, and bring him into the halves in attack (like Wigan do with Tomkins), hardly ideal but he's probably the best man for the job imo.

Who was the 17/18 year old that featured in the Hull side at Wire a couple of seasons ago? Think it was the 1st or 2nd game of the season and we had some injuries.

Tom Briscoe opposite Matt King.
