Hope he stays TBH, would be the likely replacement for Donald although it's wether he want's to wait another year when he could play in the first team at Salford. I hope he doesn't go to Union.

Will be gutting if he does go to union, and has looked like a direct replacement for Donald, fingers crossed that we get him signed up, however, I think he may be on his way out.

What ever happened to him going to Wakefield as part of the Pitts deal?

He's also Kallum Watkin's logical winger - centre partner .... Have you seen the understanding they have when they play togother.

He'll be a top-class winger very soon.

cant we do a Saints and send him out on a year long loan?

I'm told we tried that with ratu after offering him a new deal but he didn't want that and i'm guessing broughton would have the same approach.
The difference with saints was that their players were already on 2yr contracts whereas our players are ooc and will have more options.

Insider knowledge hey, now you know hanging round the showers willl get you into trouble don't you, the players know you are there with a gallon of KY and aren't amused.



They aren't our players, they are the property of the Club, you dont figure in that equation.

They belong to me and frosties [size=200FACT!!![/size

Rafa?

Is that you?

Can fully understand if he is wanting to move on, not given chance under Brian McClennan, plus I'm lead to believe that a few promises made to Broughton were not fulfilled.

Sending him out on loan isn't an option for me.

Look at what happened to Ratu, went on loan to Halifax thought he was bigger / better than the other players. Consequently ended up not playing first team and returned a worse player than did when he went.

If Broughton wants to leave, because he's not happy to be first reserve winger behind Hall and Donald next season, then for me he can do. He's not got long to wait before he can make a shirt his own at Leeds (assuming he is actually good enough) so for me he should back his own talent, wait for a chance and push for a jersey.

i sometimes wonder whether or not these kids that the rhinos loan out to other clubs,actually realise why the club does it in the first place?
am i right here or what?
if jodie,who went out on loan to hull and made a success of it at sl level,then wouldn't that in your mind then alert his parent club to his obvious potential and put him in the pecking order squad wise?
if he is daft enough to go then he is either a fool,or he is chasing the money on offer from a lesser club

Agreed.

He's certainly not shown anywhere near enough yet to merit a jersey ahead of the incumbents.

Will his long term career development be better waiting for his chances here or playing 1st team at Salford?

For every Peter Fox there's a dozen Austin Buchanans.
