Take the Leeds lads out and they still would be a top side. Rovers are more reliant on these 3 than other supporters realise.



Very true but just imagine how much better you'd be with the leeds 3

Not an entirely new concept. Used to do that with Prohm, although we did have to point him in the right direction first! :lol:






HEY YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!

I said last season I thought these 3 were out biggest asset.

Of the 10 SL rounds last season where at least one of them was absent we lost 5. Of the 17 rounds where all 3 played we only lost 4.

Solid in defence, plenty of tries & loads of metres on kick return & exit sets. Can’t ask for much more than that.


Thought this was worth bringing up again following Colbons performance against Saints.

We’ve now had 20 SL games in which Briscoe, Fox & Colbon have played together, resulting in only 5 losses.

Since the Huddersfield game on Easter Monday last season they've played 17 SL games together. We've won 14 of those games...& in all 3 losses one of them was withdrawn injured early on.

Helps to show what a massive contribution they make to our side.

On the Oval Ball on Sunday, Justin Morgan was bigging up Liam Colbon ahead of the Wigan game and saying Colbon was "very very much in charge of the back 3", and then qualified it immediately with "along with Sean Briscoe". Poor Peter Fox. What happens when the other 2 are dishing out orders to him and don't agree? Who really wears the trousers in this 3 way power struggle? I think we should be told.

And I think you should get some new material, better still get a life...

Craig Fitzgibbon's 6 years past his best and here for a holiday, you said. Maybe it's you that needs some new material. :lol:

I wouldnt say Hall is any better then Fox, the fact that Senior is along side him has a big bearing on Halls performance, if it was Senior and Fox then im sure he would get as many tries and perform just as well as Hall.

Colbon is a unsung hero in our side to be fair to him, rarely has a bad game and normally has a very good one.

Briscoe is Englands number 1.

When it all comes down to it, id take our back 3 then any other back 3 in the league. (but then thats just me and i dont get to see others week in week out)






[quote="Adeybull"] so the panel took the same view as your excellent assessment.[/quote]

same old faces stirring things up, Hull have there best team in ages, there best chance of winning things and yet so many of them still feel the need to pop on Rovers boards and stirring.

our back 3 may not be the best in the league, but they do a great job for us. as do Hulls for them, Wigans for them, Leeds for them and so on......

Just like your counterpart Mr Hutchie your posts rarely merit a response.

But since you have gone to the effort allow me to enlighten you on some home truths about your own club (if you can call it that).

Firstly, you are the only team in SL history to field an all overseas starting 13.

Secondly, the name on your badge does not match the name of the business you operate under……………Why is this?

When you give reasoned responses to these points I will enlighten you a little further.

Thank you for taking the time to troll on our board.

Wildmoose made a good post - please discuss Briscoe, Colbon and Fox, but not Barista.
There is an 'ignore user' function now iirc, for those who want to troll dodge.
