Gym should have been there waiting if this was in the planning for so long

 

[boggie23]

You would think at the crowne they could let him or book the gym separately everyday for an hour or so with a few other patrons allowed?
Seems like a cracking lad, will fit in well.
Will lead the other boys and show em how its done.
Welcome big fella!

If bupa looked like the sick version of tolman then this guy is bupa platinum. How old is he? 25? looks just as bad as graham who is 10 years older you can tell he has been in a few scrums

If he was going to the roosters that hotel room would be full with hookers and cocaine

If we still had a conditioner like Billy Johnstone, Luke would be riding a pushbike to Sydney.

Billy is one tough human being

I think thats a piss poor effort by the club by not having his room set up already with all the gym equipment..
He's been in there a few days with only a bike,he loves his fitness and he'd be wanting to be ready and raring when he joins the rest of the boys.
Very unprofessional!

I watched the video and I thought exactly the same thing. Hill and Lynne flew to England to sign him then we get him early while the rest of the team is playing shit, the bloke seems to love fitness but what it takes a few days to get him more than an exercise bike ? Very unprofessional

I think it’s out of the crowns control why guests can do. They are guided by strict police orders that their quarantine guests can leave their rooms, only for 20min.

Even more reason whe the equipment should have been in his room.
Something at least if you can't get bigger equipment in

Poor bloke doesn’t even have a decent banana to munch on it looked like it was in the hotel room since before the lockdown.

Exactly. Give crown a call. Let them know the situation. And tell them to accommodate some weights, a skipping rope, a treadmill. And just give them a few $$$ for their help. And next time dogs play in town we will let steve price free on their gaming floor as a thank you.

Im sure there are strict quarantine rules on what can be brought in and out, but this just sounds like another fuck up under this administration to be honest.

Look, at the end of the day the club could have grabbed a few of the players, some equipment out of our own gym and taken it over before he got there. It would have taken a day at most. Fukin amateurs and not the way to welcome a quality player! If we took notice I'm sure other potential players may have.........

The attention to detail is seriously lacking and that's big fuk up IMO.

 

[DinkumDog]

Wow. Any opportunity to sledge the club.
I guess overlooking the fact that Thompson’s release was secured last Thursday, he was on a plane on Saturday and arrived on Monday morning. Not to mention restrictions and realities of what can and can’t be brought in.

Gee, maybe it’s even possible the club asked Thommo what he wanted and felt he needed for this period?

But no - automatic assumption the whole thing was an incompetent cock up.

Some of you would complain the Powerball dirtied your jeans if it fell in your lap .

What the fuk are you talking about?

He constantly mentions in his video about gym equipment for his room but to his credit he doesn't show the disappointment, legend!

The earlier articles say that they will set him up with gear in his room because he's a fitness freak and want's it so he can hit the ground running after the 14 days.

It will be harder to get stuff to him now, being in quarantine but even with the time line you mention how hard would it be for the club to hire a truck, grab 6 players and take some equipment out of Belmore over to his room? Pay for the cleaners to go in after, disinfect the room and done! The club would have had about 3 days to get it done!

Fuk, I'm certain that had this occurred for him that it would have made a huge impression, especially if his team mates were involved.

These are the things that make a difference.

Really mate?

That’s right. They sound like dragons supporters. I know people who were in forced quarantine after returning to Australia and they requested and were denied any exercise equipment. That was in Sydney. Victoria are even stricter. That’s common sense though and doesn’t fit the narrative of the negative Nancy’s

Er, he’s in Melbourne.
Hire a truck and take stuff from Belmore?
Really?
It’s a hotel room. That the government is paying for, so you can be assured it’s not the high rollers suite at Crown.

You think turning it into a Fitness First in a couple of days for a two week period is both feasible and necessary?

So yes mate - really.

What about the narrative of making excuses no matter what? This period of crap has bred a bunch of people who spend their time making and living by excuses instead of calling it how it is.
