News Injured Canterbury star Luke Thompson has declared he is not a spent-force in the NRL as he works towards an earlier than expected return

[seven07]

If the club can somehow recruit some "no nonsense" props, this will allow Thompson to go back to an edge where he is better suited.
He has good speed for a big man, he has good hands. Now he has a hooker who can provide good service, he would excel in the new set up.

Mate I said this a while ago he is not a prop. Back row or lock is his position

 

[Total Fool]

If Ciraldo can turn 7ft 110kg HMAS Knockonbur into a half decent 1st grade player (which it’s f’king surprised me) that hits the ball up hard & cuts out the mistakes much like that imbecile Waddell…. Then let’s wait n see what he can do with Thompson in the 2nd half of the season

 

[flamebouyant]

What do you reckon is correct market value? 300-350k?

No starting prop in the NRLolwould be on 300k!

 

[hoody06]

Thommo can move on. We should be going all out for JWH, leader of the pack for 2 years, and the rest will follow!

 

[Robbothedestroyer]

Can’t fault his effort but reality is 3 years of mediocrity and very poor return on investment.

backrow or edge as it is now names, is not his position, he has never played edge ever in first grade. And he is not suited to a edge position.
you say he is not prop but he is a lock, id love to know your reasoning behind this.

 

[Dogmonster]

He is not Cameron Murray, Isahya Yeo or Victor Radley and never will be.

 

[Sword]

Not another fkn declaration. Didn’t TPJ do one of those

 

[sgodllubsti]

thompson is the bulldogs new foran, the sooner hes off the books the better

 

[Nasheed]

The bro been talking about Thommo the edge player for a while now LOL A position he has never played and defensively would be a nightmare

He’s played there yo, he’s played there.

I don’t think Thommo is a starting prop. Whatever Leota or King is on he is worth less

 

[Dawain87]

Would like to see him play on the back of an improved team.

 

[DogsOfWar1704]

Hopefully he comes back early and with a point to prove. He’s a good player just hasn’t been in the best set up just like most of our players.

JWH will want a big pay day...about a mill a year...not signing him for that much

 

[piggy]

Theres no way I’m resigning Thompson

Then who are you signing?????

 

[KLil]

Then who are you signing?????

Do we really need another middle?

King
Sutton
TPJ
RFM
Hughes
Okunbor
Morrin
Patolo
Davey
Pele

Then we have reserve graders after round 11.

If anything we replace TPJ with a top shelf middle the year after.

 

[Nasheed]

He played well in 2021.
Early 2022 Barrett used him as a decoy every play, which did nothing for his rep.

He could be a sleeping X fACTOR

He has never played edge or back row in the uk, but he has played here against the sharks and was one of are best players. The front row need big body’s with a strong core as they have a shorter run up than the edge back rower, that’s why Luke played better at the back as he can pick his lines and has more time wether to run or pass.

According to Actros, Luke played second row alot. I CANT RECALL IF IT WAS FIRST GRADE OR JUNIORS BUT.

And I have figured out who Actros actually is, and yes, he would be aware of Lukes career for a while just as he says. He isnt lying at all.

That pack is so mid. We definitely need shit tons of more good forwards
