Pretty arrogant for a fan of a mediocre Super League club that has to be bailed out by the RFL to keep their own ground aren't we? Briggs will be one of the best players in the Championship. If Bradford actually signed a decent player for once that had the potential to be the best player in Super League I'm sure you'd be pretty happy about it too.

Have I missed something here?

The quote about 'signalling intent' and 'the big name' were taken from an official Featherstone press release which I have seen, hence the quotations. I wish Featherstone well, I was merely adding some information to the rumours. And if it turns out to be Briggs (or Rooney or Senior for that matter) then it can only be good for your club.

In the words of Michael Winner...

what did you seriously expect when you cast a sleight on the championship?? A "that was a brilliant post sir. Fancy moving up a gear and giving us a proper slating cos we'd love that"???? type of post???

Due to the politics of the game, we have to recruit what we can given the monies we're allowed to spend. I could have won the euromillions last night and gave it all to Fev...... the salary cap would still apply!

He is what he is. Briggsy will be one of the best halves in the championship. The reasons we can't field potential England players have been well argued elsewhere over and over again!

Briggsy hasn't been given a fair crack at Bradford IMO as opposed to others i.e. Zac at Leeds. I'm sad for the lad it didn't work for him but he left fev a cracking terms and I'm delighted to have him back.

Is this definite then? Because if so I'm gutted that he's gone. I totally agree with you that he hasn't been given a fair crack, it's appalling that Jeffries is in front of him. He never let anyone down in a Bradford shirt, I remember him performing above average on several occasions last year. Hopefully it's just a loan signing and we can keep faith in him.

Lot happier if it is a loan.

Re: Kyle Briggs : Sat Feb 04, 2012 9:35 pm  

I believe the youth of today would say..'meh'. He isn't ever going to be good enough to build a team around with top 8 ambitions. He might have some value as a back up squad player but unless we get a couple of injuries at HB he wouldn't be playing anytime soon. I assume the club will have some sort of recall clause in case on injury.

Despite his shortcomings, Jeffries is still the better player right now IMO.

Well I could say it wasn't a bail out. Cite all the information why it's not a bail out.

But you're too stupid to listen. So here's a picture of some pretty flowers as I don't think that'll tax your limited brain too much.


Remember: It's a picture, that's why you can't smell them

Is Briggs loan for a month or season?
