Eh? Scott Moore is far from average and I rate him higher than Houghton. Moore has England caps and is more versatile, can cover the halves and loose forward and is an all round better player. I'd have him at Rovers tomorrow if I could.

Tom Briscoe is a natural centre IMO and could do a job there for England in the future in that position so not sure why playing him on the wing his going to help him develop cos when you consider this is his 3rd season in the 1st team.

Like you say though maybe he's happy to lap up the attention being the "golden boy" of a team where the vast majority of the rest of the team and inept coaching staff get crucified by their fans on a regular basis.

Craig Hall will be far better as cover than Ratu and Latus in the backs. Neither done anything special, not even for the 20s, both lack genuine pace, which Hall has.

Tom Briscoe will become nothing but a good player?

That statement implies he's yet to become a good player. Can't wait unroll he does take this giant leap and becomes a "good player" he might even get international recognition then.

No it doesn't

Yes it does.

Tom Briscoe (this pains me to type) is the genuine article, who could possibly play NRL (if he has any sense to get away from Hull). There are not many backs in SL who are capable of making this step, but he is certainly up there.

No it bloody doesn't
Answer me a question can a man with a full head of hair BECOME bald.
Then answer me another question as a general consensus which is better having hair or not?
Pick through that and you will see how you are talking ballocks.

Yes, a man with a full head of hair can become bald, many men will testify.

The statement should have read "Briscoe will only remain a good player"

To say he will "only become" suggests he hasn't yet.

Nope in the same way a man with hair can 'become bald'.
So a very very good player overtime with poor coaching can 'become a good player'.
If the said poster really though the coaching was poor he could come to a conclusion that players at Hull generally go backwards which makes the comment become if he stays at hull he will 'only become a good player'.
Methinks you have taken a comment completly out of context.

Quite a few English backs could play nrl.
