Allegedly been confirmed that he HAS done his ACL and is out for the season ??

Well if thats the case c c hand will be forced : it's all about the options he takes from now on.

Was told last night that BJB has been advised to hang his boots up as well. It’s a big shame but moving on will the insurance pay these contacts off and will we use the money elsewhere.

Good point, SC....Cas did it with Gale and Wire also did it with Kevin Brown, so surely there's no reason why we can't ???

It looks like our injury jinx is continuing from where we left off last year

Cas and Warrington still had to pay them though, they just didn’t count against the cap. Assuming we’re not spending up to it, it won’t make much difference to us, it just depends on whether we can afford to bring someone else in.

Big shame for both Danny and the club , 20 years in game and to hardly play a game in what would have been his last season

Thanks for the memory's Danny wached Wakefield for over 60 years and In your prime you up there with the best scrum halfs I have seen .The try 90yd try you scored against Leeds is one of the best I have seen down at Bell view . All the best your a legend

Agree with all that legend. If it is the end of Danny’s RL career a shame. One of Superleague’s finest half backs.

Awful way to end a great career.
we WILL need a replacement! IMO Danny was the only player we had to unlock defences, unless the Miller/Hampshire partnership is given a chance (and works!)

Jenna Brough just posted to say he isn't out for the season.

The half back partnership must be the club's priority if thats a combination of what we have now or entering the market to bring someone in. Brought will have a lengthy lay off and i would think find it difficult to return.

Hope we do not waste cash on a 2nd or 3 choice or go for a nother 30 + choice We should have learnt our lessen after Finn and Brough .

Escare for me on loan, someone with that X factor that can unlock defences .
Think we will struggle to find any quality half’s knocking about At this moment in time that are any better than what we have .

Gales injury was before he played a game last season and thats the reason Cas could excempt him from their cap. Once you've played a game its too late although it does seem a bit unfair.

Bit ?????...it seems a LOT unfair !!

Whilst I'm glad that Broughy's career hasn't fizzled out in unfortunate circumstances, he is clearly going to be out for a lengthy spell which doesn't help either him or the club, but if BJB is out for the season, then at least we could de-register him knowing that he will be suitably recompensed by the RFL.

We’d still be the ones paying him, not the RFL.

His wife posted on social media that it isn't a season ending injury. As an HKR fan I hope it isn't. Yes he is the player we all love to hate but even at he's age he is still one of the best half backs in the game. Awesome player who I love to watch and always has you on the edge of your seat when he plays. His passion for been a winner can also be his downfall but that's what you get with him. Hope his wife is right that it isn't his season over as it isn't the way that this should end for him.

For short term , I would try and get Martyn Ridyard from Leigh on a week to week basis until you get someone permanent for the rest of the season. I know you won't agree, but I think he would do a job for you at such short notice. Ridy is now our 4th choice half believe it or not, but I would give it a shot.

Will Hampshire not get a good run in the halves now? Jowitt /walker when back to full back. Hampshire used to see himself as a half so now could be that extended run in that position?

Albert Kelly in Chris green back to hull ?

Pleased brought will be back he deserves the right to decide when he retires rather than the cruel fate of injury.

I think tHough that you are seeing a bit of the frustration Giants had for him. He needs to learn to adapt to plying with another half ‘rather than trying to control everything around him as it stifles those around him.

He could do it 6 years ago when at his peak but he cannot do everything by himself but has not come to terms with it.

GOD! How fat would Kelly get under Clogger's regime?

We haven’t had a quality half since Tim Smith for me we should be looking to bring in an Aussie who’s not making the grade in the NRL. Like we tried with Harry Siejka

3-4 weeks out for the old boy

Partially agree there Dreadnought, although Miller has had good moments, but for me lacks consistency, and hasn't developed that all round half back game I was hoping for.

You mention Tim Smith, I would say his first spell, his second was somewhat of a damp squib.

I would have looked to bring in a quality one for last season, and not someone who was even older than the one we previously had.

I just think in our squad, we have 3, maybe 4 players who could make the 13 shirt their own, 4 players vying for the second row spots, not to mention two other ageing players who can play there, which when we are at full strength, cant see them playing too many minutes. I wont mention the front row, as we are thin there for a few more weeks.

My point, do we really need all them, and could we not have gone that extra mile, and brought in a quality 7.
