There is a familiar theme developing here.

One minute, Danny is (quite rightly in my opinion) heavily hyped up on this board. There is an outcry when he isn't selected for the England training squads (again, rightly in my opinion).

Then, suddenly, there is whiff of a suspicion that he is looking to leave! Now I am reading, maybe he's not 'all that'..."he's got loads to learn"..."his distribution is awful"..."he hasn't kicked on"..."young Cunningham is a better prospect" etc etc.

So, were the England selectors right all along to leave him out or not? I suppose the answer depends on whether he is looking to leave or not eh?

Or it could be differernt people have differing opinions of him, and its got feck all to do with him wanting to leave or not eh.

JMR is just a crap troll Neil, we know that.

It is not made up, if Danny does not go this year he is looking to move when his contract expires next year.

good luck to him if he goes i woudnt blame him 1 bit, just means we deffo need a 7

I just can't see him getting a deal next year in the NRL, more likely he will see out his contract, maybe even end up extending it depending on money?

Either way we'll survive, I just like to see the local kids staying preferrably.

TBH I would be surprised if Danny was to be offloaded before his contract expires and also IMO he is still a little away off being NRL or rep footie level especially as a hooker when you look at some of the names he will play against in the NRL..
Dont get me wrong he is a solid good young fella and a model pro to boot but he still has much to learn and needs to develop more before he starts believing what folk are saying about him ..he has lots to learn yet wether it be here or another SL club but right now he would get very disolusioned very quickly in Oz IMO and would play more lower level footie than not which would not benefit Danny at all..
When his contract expires maybe a move to another BIG club would benefit him further and expand his worldly experience before he thinks he is a Cam Smith, Farra, payne or Hunt capeable of being big in the NRL IMO,
Danny just isnt creative enough for the NRL at present or at times the SL but is a great young lad learning his craft and that is where he should be right now at this stage in his development playing close to home , amongst friends and family and a fanbase that value him ....

It wouldn't surprise me Paul.

He wouldn't get a starting role and most nrl hookers do the 80 but he could get a minimum wage deal like Widdop's on and wait for his chance.

My sentiments Paul, he is inevitably going to get more cash with an extension ..
at present mind he is himself surprised at the interest being generated by the press

which might well be more than he is on at FC

looks like he,s going nowhere according to this www.hullfc.com/newsarticle.aspx?n=17441
