| Quote: Fordy "As a Wakefield fan I am interested to know whether you think the signing of Danny Brough mid-season has disrupted your patterns and is affecting your performances. Or do you think it is something else?
I am not trolling, and have not seen a lot of your games but was just wondering if both clubs would have been better off if Broughy had stayed with us till the end of the season. His loss mid season has definitely affected us, was just wondering how the majority of Huddersfield fans felt.
We seem to be struggling a bit to integrate Paul Cooke into our team as the coaching staff haven't had a period without games in order to work on some new patterns (hopefully that will be being worked on last week and this). Is this what has happened with you?'"
Broughs arrival certainly didnt seem to hinder Hudds in the last round of the cup.

Right.
Quote: huddgiant01 "what do you think he offers to the team? '"
If you cannot see what he offers then take your blinkers off. Shall we start with Kicking for starters?
You went to Wrexham right? Then you surely saw what he can do.

| He has pace to burn, great footwork, reads the game well, has a massive kicking game, good passing skills and a desire to win.
Other than that, no he gives us nothing.

But he's NOT got the brains to command a team (he could learn a lesson from Brad) and I still say he chokes on the big games - relegation battle for Cas, semi-final for us and now this for you. Missing touch with a penalty - get used to it! I've seen him kick conversions from the touchline AND miss penalties from right in front of goal. Great players are consistent.
Having said all that - yes I'd have him back! RL is rarely dull if DB is playing!

I certainly did, and lets be honest the cru's were not up to much and there was no pressure on him when he was kicking, kevin brown kick was nice to set up hodgson though, am i right in saying we have not scored from a kick which Brough has kicked?
As foe the Giants fans just listen in the stands next time and see how many people dislike him.

No. I can remember Brown scoring off a Brough kick against Catalan for starters. He made two and scored one that night, Brough.

| So in 8 games he has played we have scored from one of his kicks, whilst we have scored many from browns kicks. I know we have to give him time but thats 1/4 of the season whilst he has played for us, and we are getting worse.

| I have just recalled one from the top of my head. Do not assume that is the only one.
When conducting a witch hunt you need to do your own research!

I have done, just not very well but you must be able to see my point?

Scored 2 in a MOM performance IIRC.
Quote: Danril "So in 8 games he has played we have scored from one of his kicks, whilst we have scored many from browns kicks. I know we have to give him time but thats 1/4 of the season whilst he has played for us, and we are getting worse.'"
How many repeat sets or forced errors have come from Brough's kicks that have ultimately led to tries? Mathers got absolutely nowhere near the high bomb when it was still scoreless against Warrington, yet they got lucky and we didn't capitalise on it. Indeed, we had an opportunity in attack and Brown's kick went out on the full.
Brough is a good player, but lacks consistency and we need to provide a strong platform in the forwards for him to work behind. If that can happen on a regular basis then I am sure Brough will perform more to his potential in every game.

He has played 7 games including CC
Quote: huddgiant01 "I know we have to give him time.'"
Possibly the most sensible thing you have said so far.
Quote: huddgiant01 "whilst he has played for us, and we are getting worse.'"
Utter garbage. We have played 5 SL and have won 3 whilst he has been on pitch.
We lost against Salford which includes the wholesale changes made by NB. We played wigan and it was 4-4 at HT then we go and blow it 2nd half.
Just to add we have lost Lunt, Fa'alago and Wild and Hodgo through injury. Our MOS, Fa'alogo our player of the season IMO and Wild who is a solid player and possible future England international Hollywood Lunty.
To blame one player is ridiculous. I think their are few things behind the scenes that have possible distracted the players in one way or another.
