He doesn't really know and he wasn't saying he did.

We'll have a better idea when the medical people have had chance to do an assessment.

But we have a good replacement in Ben Cockayne. Cockayne is not everyone's cup of tea but full back is actually his best position, the position we signed him for.

I don't think Briscoe will be with us next season anyway. THat'll free up a chunk of salary cap and this is Cockayne's chance to show we don't need to spend it on a full back.
