| Quote ILDA="ILDA"Shame he doesnt play like that every week...'" Under Smith, he has. Actually, tonight IMHO was slightly poorer than his other games undr Smith.
He has had a blinder again, is there really any reason for the digs?

Just taking another view on things. Apologies if I dont follow suit.
Its far too soon to be deciding to give him another year IMO.

Briers is doing well. I can understand your concern, as he hasn;t always been this consistent, but it was the dismissive manner of your comments which I didn;t take to.

| Three years ago, those kicks to the corner were deadly accurate.

| Perhaps he finally has the the coach who can get
the best out of him consistently, still gives us the
best options when he plays, and against Hkr next
week may be the difference that we missed in the
magic weekend game.
Think if a player has served 10yrs at a club a
percentage of the wage doesnt count on the
salary cap, which could make a differerence to
the squad thinking for next year,but i think what
ever happens people will go with Tony Smiths ideas
just hope it works out best for all concerned.

Wait a while before giving him the contract - seen it before when a player will perform really well until he has signed then dips in form

| Would give him another years contract without any problem. He has helped turn the side under Tony Smith. Briers is now aware it's play well or your out time and he is responding to this. Well
Played Lee.

| If John Clarke is stood in centrefield, the ref has his hand in the air and is spitting as he shouts "Laaaaaaasstttt", there's only one player I want the ball to go to.
His kick to the corner for Kings try was excellent, the other one wasn't bad that King fumbled, but it's the little things he does, like knowing when quicks hands is the order or when to delay a pass etc.
I think to be fair, if you look at the Briers we've got now, to say, his 'prime' he might not be who he was obviously, a yard slower, kicking game might not be as deadly, but I'm 100% sure in my mind I've never seen a more commited Lee Briers in all his time since 1997. I've never seen a Lee Briers defend & look like he wants to defend as much, so I'm happy with what we've got, my only regret is that you can't wind back the clock and make him 22 again, and keep this version of him.
There's not a player in the squad I'd love to see get his hands on some silverware more than him, here's to hoping.
Ps, One more year.
