Rugby League to lose it's Man of Steel to Union ? Empty Rugby League to lose it's Man of Steel to Union ?

This is not confirmed by any means but i have been told by three different people ( two who work in the game and one who writes for popular RL paper ) that Danny Brough is close to switching codes and joining a as yet unnamed Premiership Rugby Union club .




Given his complete lack of opportunity to play for England at international level in League i personally wouldn't blame him for giving it a go in Union , however i think it would be massive loss to our game if it did happen .

What do you think ?

Agreed, I watched the Wigan v Hudds highlights on the BBC Super League show last week and couldn't help think what could he have done in an England shirt.  With respect to Chase & Widdop who IMO are quality players I would pick Brough ahead of them every day of the week and twice on a Sunday.

I do think Super League is very good at covering these losses inc. Burgess however yes he would be a big loss.

I do not blame any player for moving on as I've said before if someone offered me more money/greater security (particularly for less work!) I would be showing my employer a clean pair of heels.  If he does go all I ask is that it is done so professionally and there are no articles saying how much the game means, in for the long run etc etc................. before leaving 2 weeks later.

While I would be disappointed to lose another quality talent from Super League if this does happen, if it can go ahead before we play them on Friday that would be great Smile
