I love Shaun Briscoe and believe totally that he should be the England fullback. I also believe that Cookie was our main pivot since J.Smith left us and I don't know of a better 6 or 13 that could play for England. You have benefited from our dire mismanagement and at least it's served to make our city look good nationally from your side. Please, please stop being moronic enough to chant 'We all hate Hull' when you're on national t.v. It damages us and you!

As near a perfect display of full back play as you will see, plus his two tries in attack, well done Shaun.

Not just the high bombs, but the kicks along the ground he fielded on the run were superb, lots of players would not have got those without being layed out.

A fullback nowadays is the first line of attack and not the last line of defence. This is what is holding Briscoe back from been world class. Quality player just not as good as most Aus fullbacks.
