Luke Thompson consolidated thread

[bradyk]

If I look at Thompson leaving as a transaction whether it is a good or bad thing will depend on who the club acquires with the money saved.

If it was for Brandon Smith sure. Why did we sign TPJ and Vaughan tho if that's the case.

 

[bradyk]

Fotuaika for around 500

haha he wouldn't come for 500k, try 700-800k.

For 5 years we’ve watched this club do this shit and still it continues… what an absolute fucking disgrace we have become

 

[sleepy dog]

What would you guys rather upgrade burton and extend or keep Thompson and risk loosing burton ?

 

[NathDog]

All decent front rowers are signed to contracts for 2022. Who is out there worth signing???

 

[B-Train]

So he can swing his dick around and let everyone know he's the boss.

I think it's more that he might see better value in other players. He could probably sign Tapine and Horse/James or two forwards of that calibre for slightly less than Thompson is on.

In what universe does Fotuaika only cost 500k LOL.

You really think Gus is going to move Thompson on..? You are maaaaaaaad…

LOL.

Every year they tell us shit like this won’t happens and it keeps happening…. The nrl needs a revamp of the salary cap form top to bottom because it’s been fucking us for 5 plus years now

Burton is on half a mill, why the fuck does he need an upgrade when he hasn't even kicked a ball for us

We won’t let him go for nothing in return..

 

[jof]

Relax guys we're just freeing up cash to resign Napa and Katoa

 

[_G-Dog_]

If anything we Need to sign another prop not lose one..

 

[Cappuccino]

Of course, he'd absolutely destroy packs running in that team.

Renouf and Thompson
We'd continue our status as a feeder team to Melb and the Roosters

 

[bradyk]

Burton doesn't need to be extended/potentially upgraded for 23 (if he helps with an extension for 24 onwards) until half way through next year (before November).

In a universe that you think paying over 5-600k for a prop is value for money unless you’re the best prop in the game

 

[Bulldogsteve]

We're going to have to bring in a key player for next season, they can't release him and sign some fucking bit part players. Our frontrow is shit, we sign TPJ and we're likely to park him out on an edge. Like you said Jackson, Elliott, etc should be out the door first but it is what it is..

like i said a thousand times, TPJ is a middle not a edge

I’m fucking over it… theres no point anymore, the same shit happens every year mate, the nrl needs a redo

Did Gus not move on Luke Lewis?
