England fans are blowing up about the sqaud selected. They think King, Sutton and some others should of been in the squad but i guess they get a full pre season with us. Thompson should definitely sit out, he kinda owes the club for the amount of money we are paying him and time he has missed with us.

Good to see some of the young blokes get some exposure.

If Thommo plays the WC somebody should get sacked.
It's interesting the lack of comments. If that was TPJ the kennel would be in meltdown. IMO, Thommo has been a worse signing than Trex. Huge money, hardly played, no leadership, can't defend, limited footy IQ. After the support he has had from the club through the head injury, him playing in the WC is a huge slap in the face.

to be fair, i do want him actually playing some games heading into next season, he has no match fitness. Was our best player other than Foran in 2020, and when he’s on he does great, just needs to stay on

TK will meltdown when they realise TPJ isn't playing in the WC so he can instead prepare for a fight :tearsofjoy:

I prefer he had a big preseason and completely get over his head knock issues. He gets one head knock and he likley won't play next year. Thommo is heavily over rated on here. IMO, he was not close to out best player in 2020. There are at least 15 or so props better than our highest paid player.

Junior Paulo turned a corner since his boxing bout in the pre season. Since that fight his fitness has been way better

You know TPJ also did boxing last pre season and well, he was probably one of the unfitter players in the NRL easily.

He wasn't alone on that island. Our squad was the unfitest in the comp.im happy for a boxing bout. Very low risk, he will have hand picked guy he can destroy.
