That "international" 3/4 line that we had out yesterday was the [b]weakest that I have ever seen.

i think that back line will suffer at the hands of Greg Inglis next week, just like the other back line did at his hands last week. we seem to be very weak in the centres these days IMO.

Briscoe imo has been very poor in these internationals.
Personally i would have played either Lee Smith or Leroy Cudjoe at fullback as they would at least offer something in attack.
Briscoes positional play for kicks has not been very good.
When he has fielded kicks he is hesitant and let them bounce
going forward he is easy to tackle.
He also lacks any real pace.
Poor support player who doesnt possess any real rugby brain, being merely a brve lad at the back.
Its a sad state of affairs if he is regarded as Britains best back, and to be fair it shows how much Wellens has declined over the last 12 months if Wello is now considered inferior to Briscoe.
