I asked one of our board members outright last night - and was told there is no truth in this story!



I can only say what I was told!

Most wakey fans think we would be crazy to get rid of Brough even with a £100k fee. Whereas the Huddersfield fans seem to think they would be crazy to sign him and do not rate him at all.

Well more than likely they wont say "yes it is true" Would want to keep it quite if it is the case!

I hate it when you do that!

More likely is Jordan Tansey though.

Load of crap!!! Bet they told you they weren't trying to get Korkidas thrown in with the deal either!!!!

This rumour is starting to loose credibility

wish i was joking !!! Bad move all round!!!!

.

Keep hearing the Korki coming back rumour.

I for one hope it's not ture. Would be interesting to see if he did come back what kind of welcome he would get by fans.

Who exactly are the quota players and the non fed players? I was under the impression Trinity were up to the limit.

Drew - quota
Obst - quota
Blanch – non fed
Martin - quota
Demetriou – signed pre ruling
Henderson – signed pre ruling
Winterstien – non fed
Latu - non fed
Peterson - quota
Stosic – non fed

Trinity do not have the room to sign Korkidas.

Doesn't Korki count as Greek, as does JD,and thus not in quota?

Good point. Forgot that the ruling counts all players signed before the ruling came into effect regardless of who they currently play for and subsequently represent.

Letting Brough go, whilst not being happy about it, I can understand, signing Korkidas on the basis that Wakefield were under the 8 I would be OK with. Signing Korkidas whilst Trinity already have 10 over seas players in the squad is something I strongly disagree with (if all this is true).

Korki would count as non federation trained i think as the excemption only lasts for the duration of the time they remain at the club they signed for prior to that rule being introduced.

If for example JD were to move clubs he would be counted as a non federation trained player.

Least that is how i see it.

I’m pretty sure the RFL back tracked again on this matter and amended the regulation to cover all overseas players who were playing their trade at a SL club at the time of the ruling for the entirety of their career, even if they moved to a different club.

Possibly - but I asked and have repeated the answer. They do not usually bull me - but where needs must....?

JK is keen on Korki - that is a fact. The only thing that put us off him was the price.

I have no idea if Brough is seeing eye-to-eye with Kear at this time and therefore if there is a deal done I will accept that it has been done for the right reasons.

jk knows what he's doing, it will all turn out for the better

That shouldn't be an issue though as the salary cap limit is now a fixed limit regardless of your income, and we are nowhere near it I don't think.

Not saying that we don't have books to balance but Salary Cap can't (shouldn't) be the issue.

I heard this on Saturday as well. And it came from someone who is hardly ever wrong when it comes to stuff like this.

Now you mention it, you might be right. There is more to running a club though than putting stars on the field. The club has to got to run as a business, and the squad has got to be happy. I trust those making the decisions, and if Brough goes, it gets a shrug from me, and that's it. When Drew was running the show in the early part of the season, I would have been happy for Brough not to make the starting 17, because we looked pretty potent then, and there was always the worry that his return would spoil it.

you reckon we'd get and nrl player to replace him or a youngster?

fee plus Robinson

i dont rate robinson myself

A very good source told me definalty st helens next year!! fee plus kyle eastmond!!! And yes korki is keen to return

kyle eastmond, cant see that mate

Your source must have been very drunk. Unless the fee is coming from us.
