We brought Williams over at 35 he is the 1/4 player of Danny Brough. Brough is home grown and still a massive talent. I for one shall get behind him Finn tried but Brough has the talent and skill with game nous what we have missed. Great business Mr Carter ! WELCOME BACK DANNY

Sam Williams is 27 and was 25 when he was with us, how is it possible that one person can get so much wrong?

We've never had it so good ,back the club whatever the decision on brough.

Re: Brough is back : Mon Oct 29, 2018 1:49 pm  

Brough will be 36 by the start of the season, it’s time for him to retire and Huddersfield know it.

Re: Brough is back : Mon Oct 29, 2018 1:53 pm  

Would have rather we would have gone for someone younger, if I am being totally honest, but he is, a quality half back, with a great kicking game, and despite his age, still pretty quick.

Hoping that if true, this is a stop gap, and would only sign him for a year at this stage. There aren't many good organising halves around at the moment, and who knows, after a year, Miller, Hampshire or Reynolds may have built that into their game, or, if not, there may well be some availability there, whether it be a British half or overseas half back. Added to this we still have Liam Finn on the coaching staff, so not just Broughy, but we have his experiences and knowledge to pass down too.

Backing MC and Chris Chester on this one.

All in all, already looking forward to the 2019 season

Can't imagine it will be only for a year, he had a year guaranteed with us, will be a 2 year deal i would think

Re: Brough is back : Mon Oct 29, 2018 2:04 pm  

Personally think this would be good, we've been crying out for a halfback with a good kicking game for years and Brough has that. Also think our squad is a good group so they'll keep his head screwed on.

Bit weird the timing after signing Reynolds and also renewing Rocky's contract. I would imagine it will now be Rocky/Jowitt fighting for the no1 shirt with Hooley on loan again or a regular in the reserves. Hope it doesn't mean anyone leaving.

Got to trust MC and CC, haven't let us down so far!

Aye and retired, Brough would still be better than Myler!

But Federer doesn't have to make numerous tackles on 17st forwards all season or get tackled himself.
