We'll see. Seems strange that Huddersfield would pick him today though if he's about to sign for us.

Yep Heard today , Done deal .

sure i seen something the other day about pryce saying that he is gutted about missing the derby and cant wait to get back playing ?

It's April 1st this week. Folk on a wind-up?

Got told from his father in law that the deal is ready to sign and he'll be here next week only hold back is the 2 players going the other way, who they are is purely guesswork.

Thompson? not played this Easter. hope not.

Big Ian.

Got told today by a fan who knows a fan etc, ect who is a relation to Brough's Father in Law Ian Madley who said deal is off. Definitely on then!!

I'd sacrifice Thompson for Brough, plenty of players to play in the pack and loads of young kids coming through there

I got told by my friends dads dog that we've signed him I hope it's true though, although I would like to know who we are trading him with..

All I will say is I was sorry when he left us, and I havn`t changed my mind.

I hope this isn't true tbh. I'll always have a lot of time for Broughy, and he's still a handy player, but I don't really see the point in this signing. 33, off field issues (if rumours are to be believed) and imo too similar in style to Sneyd. I've also always thought he has a tendency to go missing in the really big moments.

If the rumours about Pryce are also true then it would make more sense, but otherwise I'd rather we didn't bother.

I disagree on this point. Brough to me is more of a "general"/game manager, whereas Sneyd is more off-the-cuff, individual. Brough's tactical kicking would certainly bring something to the table - an area where ATM our strongest player is Danny Houghton IMO, even with both halves fit. The challenge would be getting them to gel/combine, but I think their skills are more complementary than duplicating.

Without doubt Brough is a class act but if rumours are correct about the length of contract and cash then I would say leave well alone,we should give the likes of HTW and Dean a chance ,they have years ahead of them and with our luck with ageing backs do we need to splash out.
