Yeaman won't play for another club, he certainly won't go to the NRL.

And Briscoe and Westerman have a few years to run, so we'd at least get a fee.

Yep...he has been offered an extension but not signed it.

Players rarely do sign their first offer. Glad Danny has come out and made a statement, he won't be going anywhere for at least another season.

Not good enough for the NRL (yet).His distribution needs to improve immensely,before he can expect a good deal from down under,but saying that,both Fitz and Ogre have in the last 18 months,heaped massive praise on him,so perhaps NRL clubs are watching?

Berro did the same and we all thought he was going know where for his final 4th year, but he did!!

Wasn't Berro 'forced' out?

Hardly the same.

Irrelevant of the circumstance, Berro still went on record saying he was staying etc etc...then as we know that changed.

Re: Houghton : Wed Jun 15, 2011 7:16 am  

And at the time Berrigan wanted to stay but the club didn't want him?

Or is that irrelevant?

Thats how i understood it, Hull were prepared to let Berro go, i don`t think the club feel the same way about letting Houghton go

Depends who you hear it from but the board gave Berrigan a nudge.

Completely different. To use that example I could list loads of players who said they are staying and have.

Berrigan was already proven in the NRL so had no shortage of takers, he was also 'going home' and we had a quota spot to utilise with him leaving.

Maybe someone is Danny's family did say something to you but maybe they did not have all the facts? Either way I will be amazed if he is not here in 2012.
