| I think the Cronulla one has now fallen through with all the scandal they have been involved in over there.
I wonder if things are delayed until he knows what is happening at Wigan - as well as losing Richards, Hock and Mossop next year, Tomkins and Wane are rumoured to be going to the Warriors - so the Wigan side will be significantly weakened

Someone said on twitter that Cronulla where still interested in Briscoe. But, as you say Wigan seem interested also so only time will tell.

| Quote Mild mannered Janitor="Mild mannered Janitor"Hear in lay the problem with "Hull born" players.
Crooks has done very well in the short space of time he has been in the team.
Briscoe has been a star player in a faultering team for the previous 2 seasons.
Your entitled to an opinion, but at least have the decency to state its your opinion

In my opinion

| Unfortunately, as frustrating as situations like these are, us fans need to accept that it is now part of the modern game.
In an ideal world, Briscoe would have already signed a new contract or at least informed the club of his intention to leave. Although it seems that Briscoe currently holds all the cards, it's swings and roundabouts as far as I'm concerned with clubs often leaving players dangling for weeks and months before withdrawing contract offers etc.
As many have said, I would be aggrieved if he left for another super league side, but think that is more realistic than heading off to the NRL as I don't believe that he is of that standard yet.

| It's a big blow should he leave but as has been said if he doesn't want to stay then goodbye.
I'd just like some confirmation either way.

Maybe so, but I doubt many would know that. They will associate him as a local due to his Dad.
Anyway, its by a matter of yards as opposed to miles

Even more credit to Briscoe for making the most of limited opportunities.

| Quote Hullandproud="Hullandproud"No where near as good as Ben Crooks who is 3 years younger'"
I really hope you're not serious, Tom Briscoe's talent is second to none. Some of the plays I've seen him make are pure quality. Crooks has huge potential, but no where near. Yet.
Always sad to lose a class player, but as previously stated if he doesn't want be here then turah. Would be very disappointed if he goes to another SL team.

| losing the 2nd best english winger is not good news at all and is going to be very hard to replace imo if not impossible.
after the fc v wigan game when the team were clapping the fans Briscoe was getting big hugs off Tomkins and Oloughlin , at the time i just thought it was the england players bonding but now i think the deal has been done for a few weeks (well maybe not in writing)
