I asked one of our board members outright last night - and was told there is no truth in this story!

I can only say what I was told!

Most wakey fans think we would be crazy to get rid of Brough even with a £100k fee. Whereas the Huddersfield fans seem to think they would be crazy to sign him and do not rate him at all.

This rumour is starting to loose credibility

Keep hearing the Korki coming back rumour.

I for one hope it's not ture. Would be interesting to see if he did come back what kind of welcome he would get by fans.

Doesn't Korki count as Greek, as does JD,and thus not in quota?

Good point. Forgot that the ruling counts all players signed before the ruling came into effect regardless of who they currently play for and subsequently represent.

Letting Brough go, whilst not being happy about it, I can understand, signing Korkidas on the basis that Wakefield were under the 8 I would be OK with. Signing Korkidas whilst Trinity already have 10 over seas players in the squad is something I strongly disagree with (if all this is true).

Korki would count as non federation trained i think as the excemption only lasts for the duration of the time they remain at the club they signed for prior to that rule being introduced.

If for example JD were to move clubs he would be counted as a non federation trained player.

Least that is how i see it.

I’m pretty sure the RFL back tracked again on this matter and amended the regulation to cover all overseas players who were playing their trade at a SL club at the time of the ruling for the entirety of their career, even if they moved to a different club.

Possibly - but I asked and have repeated the answer. They do not usually bull me - but where needs must....?

JK is keen on Korki - that is a fact. The only thing that put us off him was the price.

I have no idea if Brough is seeing eye-to-eye with Kear at this time and therefore if there is a deal done I will accept that it has been done for the right reasons.
