We still have the benefit of Cooke's kicking game which is at least a good substitute, plus we get his long passing game. Cooke should only get better with time with the squad and JK. Sammy has also shown that he can step up to the plate when the onus is on him to do so. Pity that Kirmond is only here for a short time, but at least we've got Korki tied up for another year. The future's still bright :)

Glad the whole matter is sorted in effect we've got korky on our books now with hudds still paying some of his wages, Kirmond ive admired since he was on the wing vs fev and adds abit of size up top.

I do know danny wasn't the most liked person in the dressing room and that we have to move on quickly which is a real possibility with the form of obst and cooke and the targets we have for next year. However the assumption that we will not miss brough is frankly ludicrous imo, as brown himself finding a natural scrum half with pace and the best kicking game in the league is hard to come by, over recent seasons there has been no moaning about kicks on the 5 going into full backs hands. Alot of the time the opposistion have started making progress up the field from there own 20 making it easier for us to defend, his goal line drop outs reach 60metres.

How many try's have we scored from his kicks indeed how many try's has millard alone in 7games scored from his kicks....Gone where the days where when we scored a try on touchline it was more or less guaranteed to be a 4 pointer, with danny 90% of the time it was converted to 6 like it or not that won us games, cooke hasn't kicked for a while obst has done well so far, morrison hasn't kicked for yonks, and jeffries is ok. Anyone remember brough's kick vs bradford at murrayfield that lad has got us outta the brown stuff so many times.

Catnap well done on the motivational speach but he's a loss, I understand we were never likely to keep him and therefore in the long term how can he be construed as a loss, but imo losing the best kicker in SL will affect your team. AND NO ONE'S GONNA CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE.

Best of luck danny, you have significantly helped us in reaching the top part of the league and playoff's semi finals, a player of your ability deserves trophies unfortunately that couldn't be with us. Hope you do well at the giants (kill me now) apart from when you play us.


Agree 100% he is a big loss and I don't buy the counter argument. That said catnaps sentiment is correct, we will recover, rectify and revive quickly and move on from any short term blip - we always do!

Danny Brough does NOT have a conversion rate of 90%. This season's stats show as follows.

Tickle 23/24 95.8%
Witt 19/23 82.6%
Dobson 18/22 81.8%
Eastmond 31/39 79.5%
Brough 18/23 78.3%
Richards 34/48 70.8%

And as for kicking in live play, I would certainly rate Witt, Dobson, Eastmond higher than Brough - and that doesn't even include those that don't regulary kick for goal for their club or those currently injured such as Sinfield who is widely regarded one of the top kickers in the country.

Let's not get over-excited with our praise for the man - he is a fairly good kicker, but he isn't the best and he certainly not the worst. Rooney was a fairly good kicker a lot of the time too when he was here, but he certainly wasn't the best or worst either.


Don't agree, Witt and Dobson are good but no way is Eastmond a better open field kicker than Brough.

neither is dobson imo, probably on a par. not seen witt. eastmond nowhere near on what i've seen. brough is a very good kicker no doubt about it but he's not some kind of kicking god.
sad he's gone but we'll be reet, as has been said, we always are

Given DB was one of the clubs top earners and we are paying Cooke with the Newton money does this mean we have the money to bring in a new player(s)? If so should we pocket it or strengthen the team?

Thoughts?
