News Luke Thompson reportedly open to joining Roosters on less money as Bulldogs suffer double blow

[Cappuccino]

Oh no

 

[dogzofwar]

Thommos prime was pre NRL. He has come over here and flopped like Sam Tomkins. Not up to NRL standard and I doubt the roosters sign him

They RE signed Napa bro I wouldn’t put it past them

We have the worst front row in the comp next year

Assuming Thompson leaves, We don’t have any props for next year. Besides Sio.

And I mean actual props not “take a second rower or lock and make him play prop”

 

[bowleggedwog]

His willing to take a pay cut, mate I don't think you have a choice where ever you go. Roosters aren't going more than 400k even if they had cap space. We are desperate for props I wouldn't even go that much.

Matt Doorey levels this bloke. Look how Doorey is going at the Eels. Bye bye

 

[Mr Shhh]

Why for less the bloke owes us big time

Won’t be for less. It’s the Roosters!! Half his income will be salary cap money, the other half, brown paper bags, cars and gold bullion.

Ha! No one giving Thommo brown paper bags. Begging through the media to get contract with the roosters and saying he will take less. Fkn desperate ****. Roosters have young fellas on minimum who are ten times better than this idiot

We could legit have the worst front row of the nrl era. I'm struggling to think of worse.

We have the worst front row now. We get dominated and bitch slapped in the middle every game

 

[B-Train]

Who cares? He was disappointing with us, we don't want to keep him and he'll likely be the same player with the Roosters or another club. Good luck to him when he leaves. He doesn't owe us anything and we don't owe him anything. Move on. Why people are upset about this when 99% of people don't want to keep him, even on a cheap deal, is anyone's guess..

I doubt it to, sounds like one of those rumours managers drop when they’re trying to negotiate for more money to frighten a club into paying a bit more …

If the Roosters did happen to sign Thompson after picking up Lenui and Young and not moving anyone on, it shows what a mockery this game really is … and if he signed with them for less it shows what a mug he really is.

 

[Nasheed]

Extend him 800k one year and reassess next yr

No... ask him for $800k back and extend him for another year.

 

[Wahesh]

Yes.

This may be unpopular opinion - but I hope we match the roosters offer on the table and he sticks with us. He owes us. He can be devastating at his best. Remember the sharks game

10:15 for a taste

We are short on props. If he can have some luck with injuries, hes valuable. I think we need him

I always thought you were an idiot. I no longer think it.

 

[maroondog72]

IF the rooster offers this dud a contract it will be for minimum, and I hope they do the sooner he is someone else’s problem the better.

 

[Chris Harding]

He will probably play good footy and not even get injured once.

Like Foran.

Reduced contract with uncle nicks personal delivery in a Uber eats bag every game he plays. See you dickhead.
