Shocked you're letting him go. Would have him back in a heartbeat at the KC. Great bloke and would love to see him back in black and white. The one Rovers player I'd never shout abuse at!!

Everyone keeps saying 'we have let him go'
Has anyone thought that it maybe SB's decision?

Briscoe confirms it on his twitter; "Yes I'm leaving Rovers, had 3 1/2 great years here so far and still more to come. Thanks for all your support and messages. We've still got things to achieve this season so finish on a high. Wish I'd of got chance to tell the boys before it was announced." - twitter.com/#!/sbrisk1

No he doesn't.

You've got a non fed space available.

Think Rovers next signing should be a new chief executive, the current ones handling of recruitment and retention is an utter shambles.

Real nice kid but not good enough to take us forward. Wish him well but not a fan of him at all.

Colbon next to go along with Vella

Fewings of the Mail said on Sportstalk tonight that attempting to bury the bad news of stalwart Briscoe's departure as a derisory footnote in the announcement about Galea was a "complete disgrace by that club".

It does seem a bit strange that they haven't let Briscoe tell his team mates first.

Cameron Phelps?

I agree about the mike smith quote. Unfortunatly we've not recruted a decent chief exc since Paul Lakin left. Christ, he even got our sponsership with sporting bet while he was in his new job at wolves. Doesn't say much bout our presant one does it!

I think he's doing a great job. Craven Park will be unrecognisable by the end of July and SL's biggest ever signing? Lovely.

De-railing a bit from the news about Briscoe, though. As has been said, what a great servant he has been to rugby league in the city. I'm sure we all wish him the absolute best. You know when you can remember where you were at precise moments of receiving important news? I can remember exactly where I was when we found out he'd been taken to hospital with appendicitis and was going to miss the Challenge Cup final. A travesty he didn't get the opportunity. Great player, great bloke.

Well if its true Briscoe is going, I hope to god its Sheriffe or A N Other because if its Cockayne we are truely laughable.

And the fact that doesnt make me laugh is the reality of being a Rovers fan at present.

Why? He's a good player.

If he wasn't quota, he'd be a reasonable option.

Didn't we think we were getting Dave Halley at one point, or did I dream that?
