In 2019, Danny started the first 2 games but after suffering heavy defeats against New Zealand Warriors and rivals the Parramatta Eels, Danny was demoted to reserve grade by coach Dean Pay.
On 16 September 2019, it was revealed that Danny would be released at the end of the season after not being offered a new contract for the 2020 season.
