Thought he went well in scoring a length of the field try against Rovers in the last sell out derby at the KC!

He is a cracking talent and Agar deserves a bit of praise for showing faith in him.
Thought Yeamo was class tonight nall, looked fast when taking on the defence and looked to give Briscoe plenty of ball.

Beat me to it Homer......Tom never put a foot wrong in the Derby.....and its a shame he got injured at Wembley IN FRONT OF A CROWD SLIGHTLY BIGGER THAN 24,000

But to be honest......All the lads deserve the plaudits as well as Agar. WE HAVE A TEAM AGAIN!!!!!!

A very very good player but as much as I want to win the derby I want him to play just to see how he goes in front of 24,800 fans that could get quite hostile at both ends of the pitch...etc. Its ok some players saying they switch off to the noise around them but the pressure to make the correct decisions say if he goes two on one with the other Briscoe in the final few minutes with the scores level does he dummy or does he draw and pass?! As a Rugby league fan I enjoy seeing young players shine like Watkins did for Leeds, the Burgess brothers...etc What do you think to a future wing centre partnership with Briscoe and Welham?! Suggest you have a look at this if you want to see how he does in a derby....think he did ok http://www.hullfc.com/hullfctv/season08.php Hull FC v Hull KR 20/07/08 Fast forward to 6 min 50 sec............count your players left sprawling on the ground

Streets ahead of Calderwood at this moment in time. When Raynor returns, the spot on the wing should still be his in my opinion and it's Calderwood that has to put the work in to keep the shirt on his back.

Brilliant display again tonight. Made some really powerful breaks as usual. The try saver in the second half was also amazing, can't wait to see a replay of that.

Should Raynor be guaranteed a place as soon as he is fit?

Yes. He is the best British winger by a mile and brings so much value to our side.

I was just playing devil's advocate That said 8 tries in 26 games last year was a disappointing return.

Have to say, though, Caldewood - Briscoe - Yeaman - Raynor looks pretty handy.

Looks very good. We were poor all over last year. Think raynor could get upto 15 tries this season with the kicking game we seem to be developing. Hall looks exciting at FB too.

Went 80 metres last season no problem.

Wont happen as Briscoe is a centre himself and is covering Wing for us....another 2 years at least before we put him in the centres.

You don't think when Raynor is back, Briscoe will play centre instead of Graeme ?

Did you not see Yeamon get confunded at their attacking play, just seconds before Briscoe saved the day? I think Yeamon had an average game, for his standards
