Having watched the youtube highlights he looks decent (although so did Shannon Wakeman)!
Looks to have a good short kicking game which I feel we have been lacking for a while now.
Others saying he's nothing special and has been poor in games, this might be that the forwards were getting dominated - there are very few half backs that stand out when they are on the back foot.
Shame it seems that Danny is leaving, but I have confidence in Simon Woolford and hopefully he can get a good half back partnership going...

its a punt! musty have something to have played half back in the nrl

sounds like an organiser and has a kicking game which we will need now brough is going, but we still need a goal kicker? gaskell maybe

woolford will know frawley from his time at canberra.

some on here have been begging for us to sign a new half back from the nrl so now we have it, lets hope it works out!! its a new era

brough will go down as a legend at the club but its time to move on

Everyone has been saying for the past couple of years that the club need be thinking beyond Danny Brough. Seems to me that the club have now done something about it by signing Matt Frawley. Reality is we are not going to sign a top proven Australian half back, however Woolford must see a lot of potential in this guy. I for one trust his judgement.
Broughy has been a great player for the Giants and I'm sorry to see him go, if that is what is going to happen. If Wakey have offered him a 2 year contract and/or a coaching role then who can blame him for leaving and I wish him well.

I have been one of those wanting to see Brough replaced and i'm glad that appears to be happening sooner rather than later. He has been the best player i have seen personally in a C&G shirt since starting to watch Fartown when Murphy took over, and many of my best memories are of him tearing defences to pieces with his kicking game, or earlier in career blistering pace and a sidestep. In the last couple of years however, i have watched him berate younger players for the slightest mistake whilst 'leading by example' by getting himself sin binned because he can't hold his temper. He is an ultimate competitor who gives 100% everytime he takes the field, but i'm glad we aren't keeping him in a coaching capacity as i don't think he has the temperament for it. Good luck at Wakefield, and thanks for the commitment and effort you have shown over the years

Brett Hodgson and Brandon Costin are also up there. But only for a year or 2. Broughy has been a top player for us for number of years.

i agree with this

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rnthKZXhNuI Looks to have a good structured style of play; will slot in well as the leading half.

frawley to partner gaskell then????

with holmes and russell putting pressure on them....? holmes will be still out injured early season anyway and russell still young.

who will be kicker for next season?? again maybe gaskell

Nothing official from the club yet, it would be great to see Broughy partnering Frawley for a season to see how it goes.

ha yeh right like brough would let someone else organise the team!

frawley by all accounts sounds like je will take on that roll

So firstly you've got rid of your Bruffy avatar and now you're slagging Bruffy off !
Was he not your idol and best player for god knows how many years



Good luck with Frawley guys if he's gonna do what Bruffy did

Going off his highlights Ferguson should have a field day outside him. Seemed all the try's he set up were for line running back rowers. I know you can't go off highlights as anyone can look great but looks a positive signing
