I wouldn't ever take Briscoe back. Lazy get just coasted while waiting for an NRL team to come forward. Let him fester at the bottom of the league. The only 2 players I'd take from Leeds are Lilley and Keinhorst. The rest are not even good enough for Rovers.
Briscoe was quick to get his bags packed and wave seeya to the faithful , let the Herbert stew at the bottom in his loiners polyester shellsuit for me.

People remember a different Briscoe to me, his was excellent whilst at Hull, I never remember him coasting at Hull, his attitude and effort was top class. He decided to go Leeds to win things and in one season he has won more than his entire Hull career, so you can't blame him, hopefully this will change in the next few years and players like Tom won't want to leave Hull for the likes of Leeds. I would have Tom back in a heartbeat.

Amen. Tom's try scoring and defensive efforts gave me many happy memories.
Im not questioning the guys ability or his try scoring record etc,etc but lets not forget this is the same tom briscoe who couldnt wait to engineer a move away from us. Yes i know people move on to bigger and better things but the way he wanted out at every sniff at his door left a sour one in my mouth, for me he acted classless!

Tom Briscoe had an offer to go else where in 2011, but chose to stay at Hull at that point in time.
A fully fit Tom Briscoe would walk into any SL team and a fair few NRL teams.
To not want that type of playing your side is just plain childish.
