Brough might be missing out for england this time, but his form this year has shown he is one the best halfbacka the country has to offer so im pretty sure that after hia injury, no matter how long it takes, shoukd he refind his good form he'll be a shoe in for an england spot.

Bill Arthur seemed to think it was quite bad when we spoke to him so hopefully it wont be too bad and do a Mason and be back sooner rather than later !

It looked like he went over on it pretty badly but depending on just how bad it is and how quick a healer he is he might be back in 2-3 weeks. Ankles are tricky ones to predict.

Im sure I read 4 weeks on one match report, from Sporting Life I think

I'll wait for the official statement rather than media speculation ta. Just hope it isnt too bad.

big blow for us and for danny not being able to get his england call up

Feel for him personally given England game.
Feel for me as have him as man of steel at 50s.
Its great he has won over all the whingers that thought he was not good enough for us - we will be a lesser team without him - but we are a team and not just one player. Remember our results before he came to giants last season.
Ankle injuries are odd to repair - could be 4 weeks - could be 4 months. But definitely don't want to rush him back too early.
