Well I saw him in the gym watching the game from the window and it had me wondering if he might be in talks with the club.

Then I realised earlier today, Jay Pitts was making his debut for Leeds' reserves. It probably makes more sense that he was watching him.

It's a long way to travel to watch a reserve game though. I think he still lives in Hull.

Was he trying to make a fire with 2 pieces of flint?

Got to say this is a top signing

If Wigan as a club want to actually progress up the SL table Danny Brough is not the type of player we want.

What happened to these "world class signings" IL promised? Or is that another broken promise? :roll:

He signed Martin Gleeson which is one.

Rumours are we're after another who is a prop forward.

After that Danny Brough would be a very good signing. He's one of superleagues better halfbacks and can organise a side very well.

He would thrive at a big club imo and wouldn't turn out to be Dennis Moran mark II.

I think Brough would be a quality signing... as long as Sam Tomkins and Tommy are not leaving the club.

I think Brough would be an excellent half back partner for Tomkins if he signed.

Why are people assuming if we signed brough we would automatically have to let some one go.

We have just released tim smith.

Brough would mean 5 players for 4 places thus keeping everyone on their toes and adding that bit of depth.

Competition for places is healthy where form is concerned.

4 players fro 4 places would be wrong as complacency could set it or someone could get injured.

Brough would be a straigh swap for smith and i for one think it would be a very good replacement and would make us stronger as a squad.

If it's affordable and comes after us getting at least one forward in thats how I read it and i'm all for it.

What Alex said and also they're not married yet, so your point is rubbish :) I think she went back for a bit a couple of months ago to organise the wedding (because it's in Aus, presumably in the off season).
