Opinion How much of Thompson’s salary are you willing to pay

[Doggiezbrah]

We hoped he would play better with a better pack but only had one standout game (sharks last year at lock). He has been really poor buy and expected him to hit the heights or Graham and Burgess. If we can offload him at the end of season, the better it would be for our cap.

Said it somewhere else... We should be selling Thommo and keeping Vaughan and and RFM.

I would be offering Vaughan another two years for the same price he is on around $400k a season if he is happy with that.

I love RFM and I am happy to sign him but it cannot be much money. He is too much of an injury risk.

Thommo is on double what he is worth. If he went back home. That would be our best solution to clearing up our cap space.

He's been taking the piss.
Getting paid $800k for piss poor effort.

Considering we also have kids like Topine/Doorey/Morrin who are the next gen of bulldogs backrowers having experienced forwards with character and good work ethic is exactly what we need to help bring these kids through.

Lets hope theclub is looking into it.

If Thompson is on $800K we would be lucky to save any more than $400K by letting him go.
I believe if the coach played him on the edge, he would play a lot better and hence increase his value for a possible suiter.

He should pay us back the money and leave his credit card and head back to UK SL.

Yep he heads back to the U.K and receives a bill in the mail for shithouse performances!!!

With the Tigers having lost Garner, Leilua and Tuilagi surely they are interested in signing Thompson to pair with Papalii?

 

[Blueandwhiteblood1968]

Normally agree with alot you say wendog33 but that is whole lot of excuses. He came over with 'the best prop in the game buzz and he has been a massive disappointment. He has had no impact.

There aren't a lot of top quality players that come from the U.K, a lot of quality players are islanders which is where we should be looking.
