yep its a shame for us, HKR think they are nailed on to get him but i've been told a 4 year deal is waiting for him at Giants when his contract is up with us

Huddersfield have just given Robinson another deal. Both he and Brough are specialist scrum halves so can't see both of them in the same team, I heard Brough had very high demands.
Hull KR are also said to be interested but again they have Dobson who is very much a 7, couldn't see them playing together either.
I've also been told Brough is going to Warrington but after paying £200k for Myler to play 7 I can't see that either!I think it's a case of wild speculation, probably put around by his agent to get him a good deal wherever he goes next, or even to stay at Wakefield. It has to be said that most 'top' teams have a scrum half signed for 2011 and it wouldn't surprise me to see him stay where he is for another year or two.

If KR get Brough, I want Dobson! He always murders us!

Robbo is most effective when playing like a 9. Lacks the skillset for a top 7. So you could have someone - Brough / Finch ?- at 7 and play Robbo as the interchange 9 with Lunt.

If we try to sign Dobson, Wigan will only jump in and get him. Then we will get relegated. Ohno. That already happened!!

As i recall we couldnt sign him because he hadnt played enough senior games in aus, then a few days later the ruling was changed to include his games in france just before wigan signed him. Call me a cynic but i always thought the two may have been linked.

Hudds are in talks with Brough http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_l ... 568233.stm So it looks like they will have at least 2 scrum halfs better than ours next season unless we get someone fast!
