When JM was in discussions with O'Meley he was told that DB was signing next year. Does this mean the end for cookey ? can dobson and brough play together ?

I can see that tbh, Brough and Dobson both play the same role so the balance in the halves would not be great.

Oh please God no.. Danny Brough.

Its not that great at the moment

Who told him DB was signing? As coach wouldn't he be the one in the know already???

JM TOLD MO whilst in their discussions, obviously MO asked about other signings

And obviously wasn't too impressed??

obviously not, JM might have used it as a tactic when he asked for 170k p/year and mentioned his knee was knackered

I think the Jamie Rooney signing tipped things in your favour.

Ah right cheers!



Agree with you though, too similar players in same side doesn't work!



Look at Brough & Rooney at Wakefield as prime example!

If true, I'd guess at the following answers:



Cooke - probably would go. Could play 13, with Murrell covering there and hooker, but I doubt it.



Dobson and Brough might work, perhaps as split halves (halfs?). The good thing would be that if either got injured, it wouldn't be season over. We've got players who can cover 6, but not really another 7 - though I guess Cooke did much of the traditional 7 role at Hull.



I wouldn't lose too much sleep over it just yet.

I reckon brough and fisher would split the hooking role and everybody else would be unaffected.
