Brough is not a patch on Deacon - we must be in a sorry state if we are thinking along these lines
We need a Coaching set up that takes young players through the system & who the players can trust to look after them.

| Why would we want Brough for a stop-gap? Didn't we just sign Rinaldi for a stop-gap?

I did! Pay attention!
What I mean is, we've now GOT Rinaldi (he being the stop gap I was obviously on about) so what do we do with him if we sign Brough? 3rd choice hooker when Wagga's fit?

No, I wouldn't play Brough at hooker.

Er, no. Would anyone?
So Brough at 7
Hooker:
1. Newton
2. Godwin
3/4. Deacon/Rinaldi
maybe?
Or have you a better plan for Rinaldi, other than putting him on the next plane?

| Rinaldi's contract expires in June anyway.
I might be too optimistic, but I thought at the time of his signing that the club may have had other irons in the fire.

Yes, ie "stop-gap" signing.

I think I/we have a bit of confusion here on who is considered a stop gap signing. This thread is discussing the possible signing of a Wakey player. I accept Rinaldi was signed as a stop gap player. The Wakey player rumour I assume would be a long term replacement after the departure of Rinaldi.

I like Rinaldi. Perhaps its the beard.
With him we have a 66% win ratio. Much better than without him.

| I'd definitely take Brough over the others, but why on earth would Wakefeld sell him and why on earth would he want to come here?

| I'm sorry but I don't want us to sign any of them. I'm sick of these bargin basement players we sign every year. Yes we get the occasional diamond in the rough like Jimmy Evans, but for the rest it's poor and inconsistant performances and proping up the table.

| I, personally, think it would be a mistake to sign Brough.
His none playing history would seem to highlight the potential disruption that he could bring to the squad/club. We just don't need that . . . and therefore him.
On the positive side, if the coach driver didn't show up . . . it wouldn't be an issue (allegedly)
