Big thumbs up for Briers. A St. Helens lad that didn't want to leave who deserves plenty of credit for rescuing his career years past the point when most judges thought he'd p!ssed it into the gutter of underachievement.
I'll be supporting him in the final.
How do you make out he didnt want to leave? It was a long time ago but I recall him not being too happy about not getting a shirt for Wembley and that encouraged Dire to come in with an offer. Personally I'm pretty glad he left because if he hadn't we would never have gone for Longy.
Can't say I like him as a player (his constant bleating makes wello seem like he's taken a vow of silence) and from what I hear he isnt a nice bloke off the field.
I'll be supporting Leeds in the final. I hope Briers has a stinker.
I have to bow down to you, it is a superb likeness.
