| Quote: Slugger McBatt "The news items on the Wakefield website indicates that he is certainly on his way. He could go at the end of the year for nothing, but it may be to someone other than you. That puts a premium on him from your side of things. If we let him go now, we lose 21 rounds of our sides linchpin when we could otherwise force him to play. That means that we require an additional premium.
The only question is what we are offered to make it worth giving up those 21 rounds of Danny Brough, and how much little extra you are prepared to add to guarantee his services. Your bargaining chip is that if Danny is guaranteed a contract with you to start next year, he is hardly likely to bust a gut for us, as he is no longer in the shop window. Whatever is decided, it will be one that all three sides are happy with, ie, Hudderfield, Wakefield and Danny Brough.
Like with all things, players come and go and we move on. We did better after Solomona, losing Newton was a major loss but I've forgotten about him already, and Danny Brough will no longer matter after Easter.'"
You played fantastic without him for 10 minutes on Friday!

| Haven't you heard the news on the streets? Brough had already signed a 15 year deal with us to begin next season. He was always going to end up with us next year.
Nope, you've missed what the real question is. The real question is this: Daddy or chips?

| When you could force him to play...I'd like you to force any player to do anything...especially play.
Biggest question is...do we need him. Answer is no, we dont. Why would we pay for him now? when he could sit on the sidelines at wakey and cost them money.
The benefit Wakey get is rid of a player that sees no future with them who wont really want to play until the last 3 or 4 rounds when his contract is up for grabs for free
the benefit the giants get is, er, not a lot. A trouble making player with a good kicking game...

| I get the impression that some Huddersfield fans are that delusional that they actually believe that we are letting him go for nothing! He his a very important player and could be the difference between a play off place or not. If you want him you'll have to pay for him it's that simple. What ever you offer it will after be an offer that is beneficial to Wakey. Ted Richardson is a very shrewd man uncle Ken won't get the better of him in that department!

He has not had a future with us for a while, we have offered numerous deals that he will not sign, was always likely to leave at the end of the year. That has not stopped us playing him, nor has it stopped him playing well!

It's a gamble for all parties. We would probably get the best out of Brough for the rest of the year because he would be in the shop window, and every good game potentially increases his value, and he could potentially change his mind. But if he's set on going, cash in.

The announcement on the Wakefield club website doesn't mention an illegal approach. Would you care to elaborate or kindly STFU?

Produce one single post where a Giants fan has said they will get Brough for nothing.

The rugby papers report Ted saying talks have taken place between the clubs and there is no apparent complaint from trin to the RFL. You are another wakey poster making up rubbish.

Somewhere in the dust of time rest the bones of the Galilean
He who was spat upon. He whose face was marred beyond all human likeness
Somewhere buried among the lies of the past rests the tomb of Yeshua
Of he who was made God in a world without Hope.
And when this son of Joseph is found. What then will the Church of Rome say?
Prepare yourself for the day is coming. And men will say
"Blessed are the wasted lives who perished in the flames of the holy war": |

But Brough is out of contract at the end of the season at which point his marketable value is zero. So why do so many Wakefield fans think they are in a strong negotiating position. Either Danny Brough wants to join Huddersfield or he doesn't. If he doesn't it don't matter a tinker's cuss what we are willing to offer for him, he will turn us down. By this stage of his contract his agent will have been in touch with every club in Superleague getting a feel for what offers are out there. If Huddersfield are the best bet then we could sign him in 6 months time for diddly-squat. Wakefield therefore are stuck in the position of getting nothing in 6 months time or >nothing for him now. They haven't got a very strong starting position when it comes to negotiating. No doubt a fee will be involved but it won't be a massive one and will probably factor into it the value to Wakefield on the savings on Brough's remaining contract.

[No you dont need him atm, but by paying for him now "oops sorry you dont pay fees do you" it will save missing out on him at the end of the season when the big clubs start bidding with his agent]
The benefit Wakey get is rid of a player that sees no future with them who wont really want to play until the last 3 or 4 rounds when his contract is up for grabs for free
[The benefit Wakey now get is that they get rid of a player who no longer wants to play for then because he has had his head turned by by a man with too much money what wants to buy success]
the benefit the giants get is, er, not a lot. A trouble making player with a good kicking game...
[The benefit the giants get is, er better than anything you have ask Drew thats why he wanted to come back to you, he was just a makeweight when Danny played. As for a troublemaker he will be what you want him to be for the money uncle Ken will be paying him
