Pearson peeved by Briscoe exit

Arlie Birds aim to make sure they don't lose their best youngsters



Hull owner Adam Pearson has revealed that a Rugby Football League tribunal will look into Luke Briscoe's move to Leeds Rhinos.

The 17-year-old, who is the younger brother of England winger Tom, signed a four-year deal with the reigning Super League champions last September.

The incident prompted a full-scale review of Hull's youth development policies and, according to Pearson, will now be examined by the game's governing body. "The Luke Briscoe saga sent a stark message to all at the club and simply this won't be tolerated again," Pearson said in his column for the club's official matchday programme. "The whole incident has left a bitter taste and it is something we will continue to pursue until we feel we can settle on an adequate outcome. "We are not in the business of developing strong Super League players simply to feed our rival clubs and from now on that will stop." - http://www1.skysports.com/
