So basically re-iterating what they have always said

Nothing story.

We did this with Thorman before, he came back to us eventually, so good news all round

TBH (and not calling Tom at all) I dont think he'd be looking if he was born in Hull and was a FC fan (or Rovers fan for that matter)

So he can leave HUMBERSIDE....FFS.....sums up the story and the SUN really.

its in the Sun enough said

no noe player is bigger than the club, if he goes he goes with our best wishes, once he is on the plane is become EX player and we move on !! however there is a long way to go yet before his contract is up ...

I persume Briscoe will be on good money with him being an international, it will free money up to spend elswhere and no doubt someone will come up on the coneyor belt to replace him.

When does the contract expire exactly, before the start of the 2013 season or at the end of it?
If it looks like he is resigned to going would it not be prudent to get a replacement lined up and sell him for a transfer fee whilst we can? Should be worth a bob or two.

No way will an NRL club pay a fee. Contracts aren't worth much nowadays, if he wants to go at the end of the year he'll go. No point keeping a player who doesn't want to be here.

Roosters interested apparently. I think Tom will go but not next season, will be the year after unless someone pays a fee and NRL clubs don't do that.

I don't think he is mature enough. Big, strong etc but not ready for the big stage yet. (Don't mention internationals, he'll be by himself over there).

Looks like he'll still be here next season.

Good news I thought he would try and leave at the end of this year, but he is showing loyalty to the and see out his contract, very good news for us and hopefully it will give time to either Lyne or Lineham to be ready when he leaves.
