Glad the whole matter is sorted in effect we've got korky on our books now with hudds still paying some of his wages, Kirmond ive admired since he was on the wing vs fev and adds abit of size up top.

I do know danny wasn't the most liked person in the dressing room and that we have to move on quickly which is a real possibility with the form of obst and cooke and the targets we have for next year. However the assumption that we will not miss brough is frankly ludicrous imo, as brown himself finding a natural scrum half with pace and the best kicking game in the league is hard to come by, over recent seasons there has been no moaning about kicks on the 5 going into full backs hands. Alot of the time the opposistion have started making progress up the field from there own 20 making it easier for us to defend, his goal line drop outs reach 60metres.

How many try's have we scored from his kicks indeed how many try's has millard alone in 7games scored from his kicks....Gone where the days where when we scored a try on touchline it was more or less guaranteed to be a 4 pointer, with danny 90% of the time it was converted to 6 like it or not that won us games, cooke hasn't kicked for a while obst has done well so far, morrison hasn't kicked for yonks, and jeffries is ok. Anyone remember brough's kick vs bradford at murrayfield that lad has got us outta the brown stuff so many times.

Catnap well done on the motivational speach but he's a loss, I understand we were never likely to keep him and therefore in the long term how can he be construed as a loss, but imo losing the best kicker in SL will affect your team. AND NO ONE'S GONNA CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE.

Best of luck danny, you have significantly helped us in reaching the top part of the league and playoff's semi finals, a player of your ability deserves trophies unfortunately that couldn't be with us. Hope you do well at the giants (kill me now) apart from when you play us.

Is this any better?

I assume you attended on Sunday so tell me how many of either Sam's or Cookes kicks were caught on the full by the Salford defence, tell me that Brough could have put a better kick in than Sam did for Blanch's try, or the ones that made Salford drop out and then tell me that the squad has lost something for not having DB slating players for not only their mistakes but his own as well!
He's gone and we're better for it, live with it, christ anyone would think you're his love child after reading that post

Its marvelous what you can do now with computers' nowadays, things like touching up old photos' to make them look new. There is no telling how low some of the midgets fans will stoop to to try and belittle our club and the lies they tell to achieve their aim.

Some folk on here think you aren't allowed to be disappointed with this affair ... I still am..

Sam Obsts performance against Salford doesn't make me think we won't miss Brough. Sam did well however - consistency and quality of distribution (from hand and boot) is what Sam desperately needs to work on IMO.. to many bad passes and too much indecision sets them apart for me over the course of 2+ years i have come to that verdict!

The reality is Brough will leave a hole ...................... Sam isn't the same player and doesn't have the same qualities Brough has... however he brings different ones....... Sam, Cookey and BJ will now have to get together, fill the gap and take us forward....

What a revolting kit. Does him no favours

Good posts from both Catnap and mwildcats but for me the truth lies somewhere between the two. Short term I think it will be a bit of a loss. Because of the position he played and the skills he has then a lot of moves, especiallly in attack, involved him as a main element. It will take a bit of time to adjust - but adjust we will. With Cooke I think that the adjustment time will be fairly short and we could end up better off. We'll miss Danny chasing back in defence and some of the tackles he put in, but not the penalties he gave away when he gets fired up. I'm not unhappy with the deal but really prefer full signings rather than loans - but the loans may disguise who's paying the wages.

The main point is - CAN WE GET ON WITH LIFE NOW! There's been more posts about this than the fact we're still sixth and keeping in with the leading group. There's a gap opening up in the middle of the table and we're above it. By my reckoning we'll still be sixth no matter what happens on Friday so let's look to the future positively - oh forgot that's not allowed on here!!!

bye bye db.

I'm sorry to see him go and think the turn around of the club's competitive edge of the last few years has been influenced by the presence of DB and the great one (J Kear). His kicking game alone was worth maybe one or two tries a game, especially against bigger clubs. I also loved his consistent effort to get an interception try in every single game in the last 6 months. His kick conversion rate was also highly consistent and proven such as against Harlequins last season.

On the down side he was sometimes found lacking in defence (but when he tried he was a major asset here). Rumours often circulated as to whether he was a disruptive influence in the squad or not. I also did not appreciate the way he scalded Morton at Hull KR when in my view he was at fault with a poor pass. That behaviour was not leadership.

I'm delighted that we've kept Korki although surprised it was up for negotiation so soon. Kirkmond, I know too little about so will give him a fair viewing before passing judgement. Cash is also welcome, use it wisely.

Cooke, has been disruptive according to Hull and KR fans I talk with (I live on the outskirts of Hull). His reputation off the field allegedly is questionable. I hope that he stays focused and resurrects his career and enjoys the responsibility that goes with it.

I was apprehensive when BJ came back but have been delighted with his performances so far, certainly foot in mouth time for me. (When is he back from injury?). When he was first with us I was far from a fan and found him too predictable and not a leader on the field. Since his return, he has not been the primary playmaker who the team look to (like he was previously) and I think he is revelling in his game because of it. As long as he plays off someone and does not feel the pressure to perform I am confident JK can get the best out of him.

Last season we often looked to Brough to do some magic to turn the game our way, which he often did. Today I think we have more leaders and creators on the pitch and the team is stronger for it. Morrison is an inspiration to all, BJ finds opportunities unlike before, Obst is a tiger (not of the Cas kind). Admittedly so far I have been disappointed with Millard, he rarely gets or passes the ball. At Quins on the first game of the season he gave us a taster of what he can do and nothing from what I can tell since (although I can't make every game). I hope he will now flourish in a team of equals.

Thanks for everything Danny, we appreciate everything you did for us and wish you well. I look forward to a bright future under JK.

Goodbye Danny and all the best with Huddersfield.

Will I miss you? No. For me you have always dictated by how many points we won a game, never (oh go on, then once v Leeds this season) won a game for us. I hope you find it easier to build positive on-field relationships with your new colleagues than you have at Wakefield.

Fee of 30k said Stuart Pyke on Twitter. Better than nothing in October I guess if he was going to leave now.

The overall package is worth substantially more than any cash sum!

the King is dead, long live the King

im more than happy.
cash plus 2 players cant be bad. plus we have king korki for keeps now.

long live the king
