Age has nothing to do with it - I don't care how old he is physically - mentally that's a different issue.

Hudds are getting shut to save money to allow a new coach to have a go.

He's on about Leeds!

He's speaking to the troll Vasty.

And thats why everyone should be behind who ever you and chezzy sign i learned my leason 2 top 5 finishers is proof you knows what ya doing

Doh

And they've all played a major part in our last two seasons top 5 finishes.

You and your staff are doing a grand job DC

Some right drama queens on here. Ifs, buts and maybes around Brough's attitude. But one thing is for certain: he'll singlehandedly win us rugby matches with his boot.

If Jowitt and Hooley are good enough they will get the fullback position. But how many chances do you give Jowitt to make it his own?

Well Jowitt is still young and there's hope yet. Hooley I've never seen so can't judge, but Hampshire I was happy with at SH!
I'm now a little confused.

Always said this about jowitt, support play good ,cant tackle and poor postional play super league dont think so

Let Jowitt have the same amount of chances that Grix has had !?

Every time we play Hudds I expect that [ithis[/i time he'll have a 'mare. Yet to happen.

can somebody in the club pinch in and buy Jowittt some boots with studs in them so he does not slip over EVERY time he has the ball.
brough Is a no from me but hearing its a done deal with grix going back to hudds.

Reynolds could turn out to be better than either of them at FB.

17 pages, 169 posts (excluding this one) started by Cosmicat claiming the club were in discussions to bring Brough and we have still to see an announcement from those that matter giving any credibility to the claim based on gossip

You never fail to deliver on the arrogance front - drama queens or just people who see differently to you?

The drams queen comment would be aimed at those posts that say it's the darkest day in Wakefield history and similar.
I've said already that I wouldn't have signed him, but that's based on my perception of his wage, his attitude and his resilience at his age..... In fact I know nothing about any of these.

In actual fact, any discontent about Brough is in reality just doubt in Chester..... And I think he has proved that he deserves our support.

If Brough is as bad as some think, then he won't play and our half backs will be Miller or Hampshire or Reynolds
If he isn't then, Brough will partner Miller or Hampshire.

He's giving himself a choice he hasn't had since he joined and the more I looked at it, 4 half hack options is pretty good.

Hudds have signed a hb from Cantebury Bulldogs announced yesterday. Never heard of the guy tbh but i haven't watched any NRL this year up until the semis.

You would have had to be watching reserve grade to have seen him anyway, they only turn to him in emergency and when they had nothing to play for they went with King Wallys nephew.

In actual fact I think the uproar created by the possible signing of Broughy shows massive support for the work CC and MC have done over the last 4 years.
I love the team that played out the end of 2018. I am excited and looking forward to 2019 especially with the inclusion of the 3 perfect fit signings.

The possible signing now of a well publicised, petulant bad egg and egotistical maverick just seems to be completely out of kilter and could upset the harmony and balance of the squad.

On numerous occasions in his post match interview, cc stated the games we lost by a few points were lost because we took the wrong options close to the line maybe he sees brough as the answer?.

Happy to see what Brough brings if announced officially, very much a "hot head" however the guy can play rugby and if he carries the form of last season; I'll happily take him.

I didn't support it as a rumour and I still don't - but if he has signed, then it's a CC call, and I do support him, so I shall remain schtum and hope to be proved wrong.

Did he not sign for another year at Hudds back in the Summer? I'm pretty sure he did, so if we have signed him and if we have had to pay a fee, not sure about that being good business, but like the previous poster says, just got to keep quiet and hope he proves to be a shrewd 'buy.'

Grix is going the other way though apparently, so maybe its a straight swap?
