It was more the nature of the pass for mine. It was bulleted out at around McDonnell's lugholes. We should've been playing safety first there

Personally if shaul seems desperate to prove himself I'd drop Briscoe and stick him on the wing. He's got speed in buckets can take a high ball and knows where the line is..and if he really wants to be in the first team he'd need to grab the opportunity or risk looking a fool

Agreed - no need for any pass at all in fact.

Aye, he didn't seem to scoot much last night, and let's be honest, he is a one trick pony in that regard.
I like Danny and admire his defensive capabilities but those who think he's international material have got to take the black and white Beverley Becks off.

Looks like he is just having a laugh with his old Skirlaugh half back partner. Nothing sinister in it.

Shaul has been awful for York according to reports also has a bad attitude. If he's ready he'll get his chance.

If he wants to be in the 17 he should earn it, not sit about complaining about it. He got a chance at York & apparently looked disinterested.

I think i'd find it quite frustrating though when a player like Briscoe, who clearly doesn't want to be at this club ( or at least is playing like he is) is able to get in to the side purely on past merit, and I think that would go the same for any of the young kids being sent to York who is able to play in that position, yeah maybe his attitude isn't right at the moment but then thats where a good coach would put his arm round him give him a reality check and get him to take his chance and i think thats not happening throughout the team, team ethic is clearly lacking.

I get what you're saying but atm Briscoe is one of the best 2 wingers at the club, Shaul is probably the 3rd best fullback & nowhere near a wing spot.

I personally don't think on this seasons showing that briscoe one of the best two wingers at the club, if you'd have give briscoe or infact any winger with confidence the open space that he had last night he'd have backed himself and just used his speed just like crooks did, but briscoe is low on confidence and doesn't seem to have that knack of knowing where the line is this season, and I also think that is affecting yeamos game also, its hard to up your game when the person next to you isn't showing any great deal of passion or ability.

Shaul needs to go to PG and apologise for letting the club down at York. PG should then get in touch with York and ask them to give Shaul another chance. Then its up to Shaul to show whether he's actually interested in developing or would he be happier being a big noise at Skirlaugh.

We've only got 3 wingers in the squad & I'm afraid Crookes is nowhere near Lineham & Briscoe. You don't realise what Tom brings to the team until he isn't not playing.

I still don't think an 8 try return for the season is anything like what a top class winger should be getting, and his defence has taken a turn for the worse. He needs to sort his future out, and while he come to a decision we should be anticipating his departure by giving somebody else a chance.

Purely on a very short term comparison I saw nothing from Briscoe last night that Crookes couldn't have done or vice versa the week before. At the moment there's not much to choose between them.

Whilst I am happy with McDonnell he is no Sam Tomkins and I do wonder if a lot of fans praise him more because we have had e there for the last few seasons. Also if he is being considered as one of our better performers it says alot about the rest of the team. However I wouldn't drop him for Shaul.
