Well it would go against the trend of signings they have been making, but you never know what these signings have cost, although if they would not stump up 100 grand a year to keep one of the best 3 or 4 players at the club, that suggests that if they have paid more It's got a lot to do with getting the crowds up ,along with the cheap tickets. So maybe there is some truth in the Korky thing, If he is cheap and to be used in short spells it could work, I just wonder who is doing the recruiting though.

I would imagine Brown is requesting who he'd like from watching games and then Thewlis has to negotiate a deal if he can. A few years ago i wouldn't have minded Korky at all but he seems to have gone off the boil in the last season or two.

Looks like you could be correct then.

if it is true lets give him a chance to shine.

Didnt he have those chances at Trin and at Cas?

The guy is a liability.

Quote :

MICHAEL KORKIDAS has today completed a move to the Giants as the club confirmed the departure of utility back Shane Elford.

The 27-year-old Korkidas has agreed a three-year deal after he negotiated a release from Super League rivals Castleford and is seen as a direct replacement for retiring prop John Skandalis.

The powerful former Wakefield and Salford front-row forward is Huddersfield’s eighth new arrival for Super League XIV, while utility back Elford is the seventh departure from last season’s squad.

Korkidas follows Todd Carney, Simon Finnigan, Brett Hodgson, Scott Moore, Joe Walsh and young hookers Shaun Lunt and Keal Carlile to the Galpharm for 2009.

The Australian, who began his career at top NRL club Sydney City Roosters, will add extra strength to a front row which already includes Eorl Crabtree, Darrell Griffin, Paul Jackson and Keith Mason.

Korki is a Giants

Brilliant

I like how it says direct replacement for Skando.

Still I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

He'd better buck his idea's up of ball handling...

clever dick
sounds like brown knows what he is doing,so let give him the benefit of the doubt

If he can recapture his old form then i'll be happy. If he plays like last year then basically he'll be playing in the reserves.

He reckons Browny can do just that, I await with baited breath....
