| Quote ="Trinity Till Death"I don't think Wakefield can lose out regardless of what happens. We picked him up for nothing, and granted wanted to extend his contract but it's been expected that he will leave for nothing at the end of the season to Wigan/Hull KR/Catalans/St Helens/Huddersfield delete as appropriate.
It seems some clubs are rather keen and want to force a deal through to ensure they don't get into a bidding war which is rather clever. But Wakefield are onto Hudds thinking and have basically said make us a deal we can't refuse or we'll let him go for nothing and you can compete with the other SL clubs which will result more than likely in paying Brough more to ensure his signature.
Strangely enough Wakefield who should be in the weakest position right now are actually probably in the strongest mainly due to the fact they've know DB's intentions to move on come the end of his contract and have resigned themselves to him moving on.'"
Case closed for me - I wouldnt spend any money on signing him now and take a chance at the end of his contract. We'll see soon enough. |

| Quote ="Birkbygiant"I don't know why people are getting hung up about who's going to Wakey for DB (assuming he does come), we have to trust in NB, he knows what we need and who he can let go.
What he'll be thinking about is how to improve the squad/team and sometimes you have to give a bit to gain a bit.
Let NB get on with it, he ain't done bad so far.
I even heard the Sky boys saying they look forward to watching us play, and only 10 years ago we were the whipping boys, these are bl00dy good times.'"
Think that quote still stands, let NB get on with it. |

sounds ok to me, i for one think brough will add the one thing we need which is a good general kicking game which NB has repeatedly said we need and lack, pleased kirmonds only on loan for rest of season as hes a young player i wouldnt want to lose, but with the quality of our back rowers at the moment it makes sense for him to gain more experience at wakey, as for korki not overly fussed about him leaving.

| Quote ="Code13"Where do you people get these crack head ideas from?
DB really isnt a player worth a bidding war, [i[uand given the fact that Wakey will now have to pay for cooke[/u[/i[i[us bar bill they need to free some wages up[/u[/i, that alone would make it worth it for them to let DB go, whoever its to.
In case you hadnt noticed, we seem to be doing ok without him at the moment too.
And if Les Cats have been linked to him, they are welcome to him.'"
Not having to pay Newtons expenses to get to and from Disciplinaries at Red Hall freed up a fair chunk of brass towards Cooke's 'expenses'  |

Go compare stats for Griffin and Korki, oh i know stats don't tell the whole story do they.
From what i've seen this year, Griffs going very well and its not a bitter dig at him |

TBH Korki seems to like life at Wakey and gives his all for your club, I would never swap the 2 as I prefer Griff but you would probably say the same about Korki if you get him on perm deal.

| [uDanny Brough deal is not dead for Huddersfield Giants[/u
Quote TIGHT-LIPPED Giants chiefs are keeping their heads down and continuing to try and thrash out a deal to bring Danny Brough to the Galpharm.
Huddersfield officials were believed to have been hopeful of concluding talks to bring the 26-year-old half-back in from Wakefield Trinity Wildcats over the weekend – and it appears the deal is far from dead.
Speculation gained pace on the back of Brough’s omission from the Wildcats side who beat Salford on Sunday and the news he had turned down an approach from Catalans Dragons to replace departing Australian Adam Mogg.
However, while Giants head coach Nathan Brown has never denied an interest in bringing Brough to his club and the player himself is known to be a fan of the Giants and their set-up, it is understood a split among Wakefield directors over the nature of the player-plus cash deal is delaying the process.
'"
DB Comments..
Quote Brough has admitted that’s left him feeling very frustrated.
"There’s a lot of messing about, and I don’t know who is doing what," he said.
"I’ve heard the Huddersfield deal might be off, but I don’t know why.
"I just want to be playing and I’m not particularly bothered who for at the moment.
"I don’t even know where I’ll be training this week!
"I’m honestly sick of it now. I trained all week with Wakefield, apart from Saturday, when they didn’t want me in.
"If I have to stay at Wakefield, fine. I’ll stay and finish my contract."

i'll agree with that, its gone on long enough now, we dont need danny brough regardless of how good a player he is IMO,we certainly dont need to be paying silly amounts of money to wakefield for him IMO, if NB is so set up on getting his man then so be it, but for me, we should put it to bed if we cant sort something out and lets not uspet the very good applecart we have got trundling along at the moment |

Widely report this morning that the deal is still in the balance with Brough having rejected Catalans. I think that means that there may be an announcement today.
Failing that the Wakefield 19 will be announced and I'll bet that there is a Danny listed in it! (depending on whether he has recovered from injury or not).
