Brough has walked away from a one year deal to the increased security of a two year deal and the carrot of a coaching role.

Wage paying rumours are just internet bluster. The internet is contemporaneously the best & worst invention ever.

Thanks Danny, you will always be C&G in my eyes and we were lucky enough to get his best years. A change is probably best for both parties - he spent a significant part of last season banned and a new environment, challenge and so on will no doubt do him good and possibly benefit Wakey too. I dare say he will do better there than if he stayed with us, purely because of the challenge. He is a winner and winners rise to the challenge.

A good deal for all concerned IMO.

change is he will be mostly coaching and will be for many years at the giants now, good guy to have around the club with his work ethic

Unfortunately we had two many fans who see the obvious and miss the subtleties of the game. When Grix made a clanger it was easy to see what others did not always se was his ability to martial the defence and make us a mean defensive team.

Similar sentiments were echoed by your fans on the Wakey forum.

A very clever player and hopefully he will impart that knowledge to some of our up and coming players.

Danny is a Fartown legend, one of the best half backs of the modern era and should have played for England on a regular basis. His kicking game is possibly the best in Super League and in his best years he had speed off the mark. He is a true competitor and every team needs a player like that, I'm not sure who will step up to that role. All the best Danny it has been a pleasure to watch you play for the claret and gold.

brough says half of huddersfield knew he was going to wakefield before he did

was up front with woolford who told his the rumours were true

Brough leaving is a shame, but best for both parties, he probably missed more than he played last season and was easy to defend against mostly. We have too many halfbacks coming through to have to play second fiddle to him. Good luck Danny, I hope Wakey treats you well and you'll always be C&G to me.

As for Grix. Yeah he made howlers at times, but his marshalling of our defence was just outstanding, it was blindingly obvious when he wasn't on the field for that alone.

As a fullback coach I think he will be superb.
