Rugby League Live can reveal that there was an approach made to Cook and his representatives, and some tentative discussions did take place. However, it became apparent to the Giants pretty quickly that the hooker did not have interest in pursuing a move to Huddersfield or indeed Super League, which saw them step away from negotiations at an early stage.
This was elaborated on further by head coach Ian Watson, who confirmed talks with Cook had taken place.

| Quote: Dave K. "Wont be money, could easily got a deal in the NRL, probably a challenge and to live in South of France.
Superb player, but as said a risky one, seems to play most ganes, but seen some reports of concussion issues.'"
Perpignan is an attraction, sunny weather, little media attention, fast trains to Barcelona Paris and beyond. Several Catalans overseas players have stayed on longer playing part time in the French league as they like it there.

Went to watch Carcassonne v Lezignan last year and there were quite a few ex Super League / NRL players on the teams, including Jimmy Maloney at halfback

| Was pleased to read we released Pele; not for him (obviously)
I wish him well and prosperity elsewhere.
It's clear Richie Rich is jettisoning the dreck we snatched at in last years recruitment and going different. My optimism is a little mitigated by a spate of mediocre (which is an uplift, admittedly) signings, but it generally seems upward.
May the glad-tidings continue and perhaps a couple more recruits of the Asiati ilk.
Twas even good to see Pearson so passionate during our second victory of the year.

As you say, mediocre as they may be, they'll hopefully improve us again. Not a very attractive club to be at at the moment, no player wants to be losing every week stuck around the bottom of the league. Hopefully we can continue the improvements from Saturday and start to appeal to a wider group of players again.

I just hope that Cartwright can use his NRL network to find us some good strike players , players that can develop in SL before they return home for a first team gig there , hopefully staying with us for 2 plus seasons,as I’m sure he’ll know of plenty promising players that are not yet ready for the NRL but could perform in Sl.
