Joined Leigh on a one year.

Don’t blame him. With Pratt, Booth and Law in front of him as youngsters on the up he was well down the pecking order. Added to that the other backs such as Hall, Scott and Rourke are all under 25 I can’t see where he’d get a chance tbh. in fact only one of our backs is over thirty, unless I’ve missed one.

Best of luck to the lad.

Been told it was our decision as plenty in front of him.

Another example of why our game is never going to move forward. Nepotism. Nowhere near good enough for this opportunity.

How is it nepotism?
Brough has nothing to do with Leigh.

We saw something in him and gave him a try. Decided it wasn't right but Leigh decided they see something they'd like to develop.

How on earth is that stopping the game moving forward.

I could give you a thousand reasons why our game is moving forward. I can think of some issues too, but a young Wakefield reserves player in the pursuit of professional breakthrough isn't one of them.

I'm thinking that if Will Brough was another Danny Brough in the making I'm sure we wouldn't have let him go.

Seen him play a few times. There's definitely potential there, as Chester has said - I'll take his opinion over a sour-faced comment on this forum any day. Nothing to do with nepotism. Hopefully the lad continues his development at Leigh, and doesn't get put off by trash talking trolls.

Just an opinion on a forum. Many lads with potential.

I assume he’s referring to Brough senior and Chester being mates. Not sure they are other than him playing for Chester at Trinity.

I do think there is an element of truth in what he said. Like it or not his name possibly gives him a very slight advantage, but not enough to get upset about.
