for what its worth i believe he will stay but its not a definate just yet

By whom?

I can link Sam Tompkins with us and that is as credible as anyone else but I know it's not true because I just made it up.

Absolutely no chance of Brough going to Hudds now that Drew has signed for them
a, because they don't mix well on the field
b, Hudds no longer need him

This is just a nothing argument. There is no evidence that Brough is leaving. Even if it is in a paper, it is only rumour, the same as if it is on this forum.
You are arguing over which rumour is the most accurate when none are based on fact.

Where was the press releases of Snicth and Wilkes leaving to join there respective new clubs before the rumours on here.For someone who seems quite clued up you can be very naive.

How the hell am I. There is absolutely nothing to suggest he is on his way other than gossip on here.

Snitch and Wilkes were out of contract so any speculation regarding them had some justification.

So do you see the difference - one is under contract the others are not?

Atkins would have been a better example, but where as the rumours regarding him leaving have been constant that is not the case with Brough.

Not naive at all, just sensible enough not to take what is posted on here as in any way informed.

not trying to stir sh*t here but does it not bother you that the players that have exited (pitts, wilkes, snitch, drew and presumably atkins) were some of your top performers week in week out, and you've signed an aussie that no longer makes in a very average canterbury side?

Let's get one thing straight shall we. Snitch has joined Cas for the money. Not because he supported them as a boy, not because he thinks they'll win trophies, but for more money than Wakefield thought he was worth. Good player yes but not a devastating loss.
