Danny Brough is a far better scrum half than Deacon, and IMO he will be pushing for the GB No7 spot soon.
I've not seen enough of Brough to really comment, but given the lack of choice for GB, it's not difficult to be in the running for the national squad as scrum-half! Apart from Rob Burrow, Richard Horne and Luke Robinson, there's not a huge amount of choice really.
you are spot on, the best we have at a push is Burrows, not exactly in the worlds top ten halves. Brough, has a fantastic kicking game, is pretty sharp off the mark, has a good step with very sound distribution skills. I think he will be worth watching next season.

I think cas have made a huge mistake in letting brough go to wakey unless they have signed a superstar I cant see why they got rid of brough unless the salary cap stood in there way :doz:

As I understand, the salary the Wakey offered was far above what Cas were prepared to go to.

cas must have there heads screwed on then it isn't worth having brough and a load of cast offs and nobodys.

That is depressing. Of course Wigan aren't exactly helping at the moment with TL and TB in the half back slots!
Of those three Burrow is the best but Andy Gregory he isn't.
