I agree with this, but League history is littered with top players who had a bit of Agro in them, and i really think that they wouldn't be the same players without it. There have been just as many top men who didn't have the attitude, I would say Lewis Jones was a perfect example, for those lucky enough to have seen him play , I would say he was the perfect sportsman.

Regards Brough I can't believe the club wouldn't try to make some sort of effort to keep him at the club, He has so much to pass on.

Good post fartown,I would also like to add a player like Brough plays with his heart on his sleeve and will always be wound up by the opposition.This season and others in the past I have watched replays of the Giants games and seen players go for his eyes and a number of other dirty tricks that most refs and linesmen seem to miss it's easy to criticise a player for reacting to underhand tactics such as these and I would wish that occasionally they would catch the perpetrator.I am not sure what Brough has been charged with v Castleford but I have watched the game three times and I think it may be for punching not for a cannonball tackle that some Cas supporters are saying.

He hasn't been charged with anything as the match review panel haven't reveiwed this weekends games yet.

Whether Danny is costing us games or not, the only reason we are in those games to begin with is because of him. With what we've got at our disposal, his absence would cost us more games than his presence allegedly does.

With our current squad, I can't believe anyone seriously thinks we could do better without him.

Completely agree.

Daft thread

DB 6 = 90% good , 10% bad.

The most committed player on the pitch by a mile for us.

We should tie in him for coaching position post career as a true giant legend.

lets hope he isnt banned for these next 3 huge games for us

need him and gaskell to have a good run together

need to win next 3 to have a chance of getting back in that top 8 equation

So Danny hasn't even been charged with the offence that thaler sin binned him for!!
But charged with the offence in the first half where Webster needed treatment, 1-2 game recommendation.

He has been charged with both

one is 1-2 games and the other 2-3 games so potentially he faces a 5 game ban which is a massive blow as i cannot see how we can replace him effectively.

Oh yes that second charge wasn't on the RFL site when I wrote the above, it is now, DAMN

Gives faz a great opportunity to show what he's capable of.

ah so it wasnt even a sin bin that tackle

evened things up did thaler.... and that cost us the game.

Think again. If you stick Brough's name in the search engine you'll see he's looking at 2-3 games. Why that isn't shown on the main page I do not know.

He was cited for three tackles. Faces a charge for two. - the one on Webster and the one on millington he was sent off for.

Thaler didn't make him attack Millington's knees. Danny himself evened it up. Coach needs to have a quiet word in his ear, sadly, I don't think it will make a difference. As far as Broughy taking up coaching...far too unpredictable.

Webster's sin bin was a legal tackle and Brough could have broken someone's legs. Evened up or one right one wrong? You must be joking...

The 'crusher tackle' he's been cited for was completely accidental. But the cannonball was absurd.

yeh rfl website had the charges wrong lastnight, dont know what their doing!
