Backrowers weight with a front rowers brain and front rowers mobility. He is a small forward thats allDo you realise he is only 102kgs? Thats a backrowers weight.
For another teamStimson has a dig. Great depth player
i like him hope now our team has pulled there finger out he can come in and play better with themKeep hoping because he is going nowhere
Well said. We might need him.When Thompson started for us he was good,when Baz became coach the whole team regressed all
Individually and collectively .
But I opened my eyes up when potter coached the team to their strengths ,the players looked happier and each player looks like they have a purpose .
Thompson has a purpose while he is still with us while potter is coach.
Let’s wait and see how he plays before we play Judge Dredd on the hate train.
Its a non-issue with or without Origin.SEN had a little dig at Burton saying he would’ve been suspended of origin wasnt on the line.
I could be wrong (haven’t revisited the footage) but to me both Twals feet left the ground putting him at the mercy of gravity. He grabbed hold of Burton bringing Burton down on top of him and Burton basically just braces himself
What the fuck did I just read? Is this a stitch up? He’s been putrid. For years.Stimson has a dig. Great depth player
I appreciate your friends or something with him so I won’t slander him but surely you would admit his form/pay is massively out of value.Keep hoping because he is going nowhere
Those ***** have no idea lol. If that was the case they would have fined him.SEN had a little dig at Burton saying he would’ve been suspended of origin wasnt on the line.

Exactly. What no one has said so far. Kimmorely is a former 7 and he knows how important it is to pressure Burton. It would have 100% been a directive to take him to the ground on every kick.Its a non-issue with or without Origin.
The grub tried to man handle Burton and dragged him down onto his head.
He tried to hurt him but got hurt himself, fuck him.
True, but better Burto puts him down than the other way Around . . . Great use of the body by Burton in my opinionSad... Twal has a history of concussions. Every player deserves every cent they earn. You can't put a value on head knocks. Hopefully they are on the mend.
Wether we agree if he's overpaid or not, it's not Thompsons fault he was offered the deal and accepted it. Everything that's happened so far is water under the bridge as far as I'm concerned as the team has turned the corner.I appreciate your friends or something with him so I won’t slander him but surely you would admit his form/pay is massively out of value.
Is he carrying any injuries that are effecting? The Baz saga more to it? Missing home? Is there something besides us being Fucking useless all bar 3 games this year (2 he’s missed) to why he has been so underwhelming?
I guess that’s where we see things different.Wether we agree if he's overpaid or not, it's not Thompsons fault he was offered the deal and accepted it. Everything that's happened so far is water under the bridge as far as I'm concerned as the team has turned the corner.
When Thompson returns if his form isnt up to standard and he misses tackles through arm grabbing, then the writing will be on the wall. But I think we all owe him the benefit of the doubt for at least a month upon his return.
Can't wait to see the back of him.. the biggest cat iv'e seen from England yet.Keep hoping because he is going nowhere
Top 5 prop he is not even the best prop in our team. You and your mates are fried bro..Papali'i, NAS, AFB, JFH, Haas Tapine, Paulo, Bromwich, JWH, Cotter, Collins, Stefano,Taukeiaho, Welch....Thommo is nowhere near any of these guys but is paid more.I will Agree with Thompson being paid too much.
But to suggest he isn’t worthy of a starting role in our side is ridiculous. Everyone looked rubbish under Baz. Thompson has showed glimpses of being a world class prop.
i have conversations with mates who aren’t dogs fans and there were stages where we all agreed that if Thompson was in a decent side he would be a top 5 prop.
