apparently danny brough signed for hull kr yesterday with cooke going the other way. Big loss for wakefield as i dont rate cooke but i know alot on here have thrown brough as a player they'd like at wigan. if was available as it seems should we have gone for him or left things as they are

Does that mean that Dobson's contract is up at the end of the season too or are they playing with 2 scrum halves?

i dont know mate it was only a brief conversation. he didn't stipulate whether brough would go styraight away or at the end of the season just that the deal was done yesterday. Got the impression the cooke side of things was imminent. dont know when dobsons contract is up but its not beyond the realms of possibilty that brough could play at 6

They can afford him after losing Newton.

The pubs in Wakey will be rubbing their hands :D

Cooke is the biggest waster in superleague. He has so much talent but looks like he's got the fitness of a pub darts player.

It sounds like he's off to Wakefield but i'd be stunned if they let Brough go the other way regardless of him being out of contract at the end of the year. They may aswell pack the season up if they swap Brough for Cooke.

i think brough is out of contract at the end of the year and is forcast to join KR then. My source just said cooke to wakefield and brough going other way but didn't get a chance to ask him whether its this season or next so cant confirm for sure. But some other posters on wakefield and KR forums and saying the same thing so there seems to be some truth in it

I just can't see Brough committing to a side for next season this early wheather it be Wakey, Hull KR or anybody else. He's a fine player who's stock is rising and if he has a big year this year for Wakey he can sit down at the end of the season and probably take his pick from 7 or 8 clubs.

I think as it stands Cooke will probably sign for Wakefield to replace Newton and Brough sill see out his deal at Wakey then move on(possibly to HKR).

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

I would be disapointed if we didn't show interest in Brough as I rate him highly and maybe rate him better than Leuluai and Deacon.

He's younger then Deacon and has all of his current attributes plus an ability to take on the line with good pace which is something Deacon has never really had.

He's also a better out and out scrum half then Leuluai imo. I rate Leuluai but I still believe he's best suited to hooker if he gets a regular run in that position. He's playing as a scooter hooker at the minute in the spells he does there but intime I really believe he can become a clever number 9. He needs to brush up on his distribution and his decision making in the position but it's hard to do that when your only playing the odd 10 minutes here and there covering the spot.

As things stand if we could get Brough in to replace Deacon for next season i'd take it.

It seems that Saints may be losing Graham to the NRL next year, if Rugby League World magazine is anything to go by. He's apparently asked for a release from the remainder of his contract so he can take up an offer from the Sydney Roosters.

Huge loss for Saints particularly when coupled with the retirement of Cunningham and the possible departure of an out of contract Pryce.

It'll leave them with plenty of money, but with the salary cap as it is plus an ever decreasing quota it won't be easy. Particularly when there seems to be such a shortage of good players in key position's such as prop.
