personally I think that Huddersfield have cocked up a bit in this deal.



They have obviously been tapping up Brough for next year for when Faiumu / Drew leave. Wakey have found out and spotted an opportunity to get some cash out of them now, rather than report them to the RFL - leaving them free to sign Cooke now and get some cash in the bank for Brough.



I dont believe for a second that they would see the need to sign Brough for this season, considering the players the currently have and their league position to date.

Wakey have found out nothing. There are press reports from early 2009 of talks between the 2 clubs re Drew / Brough. Wakey have also made it clear that the approach was made through the club. This 'conspiracy theory' only has legs with a few slow wakey fans.

Brough would have been a great signing for us, allowing Eastmond to move to full back, or Pryce out wide. Huddersfield will be better for his signing, it'll be interesting to see who loses their place for Brough.

in that case, Huddersfield must be anticipating losing the services of a halfback or hooker at some point in the next few months.

It is possible. However Faiumu has been excellent for us at 13.
