Think it was done to stop 20 pages of slagging the club/ Ted off for letting Brough go, being accused of cashing in , not caring, taking all money for himself ....you know all the usual stuff from the usual suspects. If It eventually happens I will be sorry to see him go he proved in the Leeds game his class and how he can win games for us. Good luck Danny hope you do get your life sorted.

Thanks Danny for being a great player for us and creating some spectacular rugby at times. Good luck at hudds.

I am really glad we got something for him (if true) as we were running out of time in that one.

Just what I was thinking.

I rate Danny and would be sad to see him go, but as the first 10 in the second half against HKR showed, we can play well without him.

Jeez, the knives are out in full effect again aren't they.

I'll be very sad should/when he leaves. Brough is mardy, does lose the plot, does have a go at people but that is the price you pay to have such a talented player in your team. He can win games at his best, and has at every club he's been at.

Loyalty is a strange concept - I think I'd rather have 2/3 years of a Brough than 10 years on a player who maybe isn't at the same level.

Still, when people talk of 'players after money' and such, Wally Lewis is still a hero to many, yet would he really have played for 'that' Wakefield side had the money not been there?

There's no chance is there that the players Shudds are offering in return may be, ahem, 'unavailable' for say 7-10 years?

I'm sure Trinity would make sure any players offered in any potential deal we're not involved in any alleged incidents earlier this year.

Danny wants to stay but wants to know what direction the club are taking,he`s happy with contract offer and loves Kear but wants to see the club matching his ambition,and thats from the horses mouth

I think unfortunately there's too much to this situation now for it simply to be another silly rumour.

There's no smoke without fire and this fires been burning for weeks now.

Looks like DB is off. If so thanks and good luck to him.

We made him the best offer we could but it wasn't good enough and so be it.

Be interesting now to see how this ends......

I agree, but it is such a shame that it has felt like for 2 of those 3 years it feels like he was been wanting out, because his move to Huddersfield has been the talk on here for a long time. I can guess that it's not about greed, but about wanting to win things, and I don't blame him for that. Someone on here said that his head was turned by the world cup, and it does seem that Brough (we're no longer on first name terms) shifts and changes with whatever suits him best. He's Scottish when it gets him to a world cup, and then English the year after when it suits him more. I guess he'll be at Huddersfield for as long as Eastmond is at Saints or Myler at Wire, or for as long as Wigan don't need a new scrum half. As soon as there is a shinier opportunity, I suppose he'll be looking elsewhere. It's all part of his competitive edge that makes him the player that he is, but also at times infuriating.

I also have a sneaking suspicion that he and Robinson will go nose to nose during a match, because they are both mouthy little generals, except that Brough has got that Thornhill madness in his eyes.

Just what i need to read TRB.

Regardless of his finances (which im sure he will get sorted with a little time and hopefully at wakey) BROUGH is just quality.


I want him to stay as the guy is class and im pleased that he has attitude, if you take the attitude away then BROUGH wouldn't be the player he is today.

IMO he is the best halfback in ESL or on a par. I hope he stays as we will miss him as a club.
