Briers the problem ? : Sun Feb 22, 2009 12:00 pm  

Watching the game last night, you wouldn`t think Briers was on the pitch, the team lack direction. Briers only peforms when he wants to. I watched the game on Friday night, why can`t we sign someone like Dobson. A player that wants to play week in week out, and would link very well with Monas,
Mona`s isn`t a bad player, he`s just got no one to work with

Have to agree....Briers is the constant in this never ending tale of under-acheivement.

i AGREE our Half backs are one of the worst partnerships in Super League.. Monaghan is not a 7 any day of the week the sooner he buggers off the better.. Hicks is the only aussie worth talking about on here the other can just go back home... Watching Catalans yesterday and seeing Bosc take us on time and time again just makes you realise our half backs are very poor.

We all hate Long, but he always pulls something out of the bag,ie last week. Briers Can`t. we need to replace him now,

Can't understand why we didn't go for Dobson when he was available

He plays with too much emotion and tends to panic when a cooler head is needed.

He obviously has a thing about playing Saints, it means so much to him, and this rubs off on the rest of the team.

My son played in the same team as him when they were 10 year olds, he was a cracking player then but he's never grown up

Step aside Penny. Its time for Briers to take the blame.
