Could even be that Shudders didn't really want him till next season but we've now said something to the effect of "you want him, you've got him now!"

cant see how it can benifit the club to lose the best player danny would have been worth bout 8 pts more come end of season and i dont know what it will do to the crowds but the could drop.i honestly cant see us adding anybody to replace him(cooke is for newton-if he comes)

A totally dedicated Brough for the rest of the season would possibly be worth 8 points more. However, a distracted Brough may be worth 8 points less. There are too many variables to predict such out comings accurately. Who would’ve thought that Trinity would recoup a vital 12 points whilst down to 12 men without Brough on the field last Friday.

And young Davey is not in the equation ?
If Brough won't accept, and it appears from the Wakefield Trinity statement that he won't, then he may as well be away.

Tbh I think he means in terms of wages, Davy's wages were taken into account when Newton was here

I also was in the keep him until the end of the season camp, but as some have already said - if his hearts not in carrying on playing for us he will be a negative.

If we get any players in exchange they are obviously going to be in different areas of the squad than the halves. Off the top of my head, I can't think of any of the Giants players that I would want that they would be prepared to let us have.

Also not sure a pure cash deal suits us if there is nobody to spend it on.

Maybe Brough's salary is best kept for next season. There is no-one available with sufficient quality this year so no point wasting it on an inferier quick fix.

With money in the cap/bank we can wait and see.

As I said, I don’t know D.B from Adam, and, if that’s the case, then yes, ship him out pronto. There should be no benevolence from the club, especially if it’s not reciprocated.

We maybe losing a class S.H, but I would have thought there will be more harmony in the camp, especially the young-un’s, who need guidance & encouragement from the senior players, not berating them.

I don't buy into the fact that him staying until October will lead to a lack of commitment. Look at his performances For Cas in the NL play offs, committed and professional to the end. This despite been committed to Wakey for the next few years. Last season we had an excellent finish to the season ( Play off game excepted), this was achieved with excellent performances from players who were heading else where in the new season. If Danny was to stay I would expect him to still produce the level of performance we come to expect of him.

Regardless of what the Huddersfield fans think, we're in a very strong position regarding negotiations. Hudds clearly have been trailing him for some time, they woant to ensure they get their man before other teams are allowed to talk to him. The club has stated in public Hudds are talking to them but the deal must be right. Other clubs interested in Brough will enquire and therefore press Hudds into concluding a deal.

If no deal is agreed, we keep a decent player and then the auction begins and probably Huddersfield lose out. Win win in my opinion

He won't be staying, will be gone this week unfortunatley From what i know (which according to most is very little ) Cooke is just about all tued up , and we also have another signing to announce in next week or so.

Thanks Danny and goodbye, I personally will miss watching you play.

The press release is smoke and mirrors, deal is done, to Wakey's advantage

Honours even I would say.

Where shipping one lunatic out of the asylem and bringing in another one, so should not be too much disruption on that score.
It's been a pleasure watching DB wear the RWB although he has never fully reached his potential with us. Alway's remember talking with Toppo on many occasions and him being so frustrated with the lad in that he had so much more talent than he actually gave us, and he used to tell him as well. Good luck to the him I'll still enjoy watching the lad.There's not many like him in the game that's for sure.
