Opinion Luke Thompson

[Bazildog]

I agree, need to secure Burton, Ciraldo coming will help that along with some extra cash too, $400k for Luke, yeah if he only plays half a season

The sad part is that under the style of play we carrently are playing I reckon Luke would excell. In SL he scored plenty of tries via support play thru the middle. We are playing a lot of short offloads at the moment and backing up for some great tries.

I did say to luke at the time it’s because your English
You need to remember we use to rule 75% of the world with an iron fist but
These days we couldn’t run a bath

actros brother tell luke most of us fans are keen to see him return and can’t wait for him to rip in under potter. Send our love to him yeah

Thompson frees up $800k. He had his 2 years to even look remotely good in the NRl and the fact is he is a $400k player max in the nrl. Would prefer to cut our losses and use our salary cap to have a shot at a controlling half to compliment Burton.

He frees up 800k if another team agrees to pay him 800k

 

[Omar Hamdan]

According to ZeroTackle, Luke Thompson is on 800k and Corey Allan is on 500k.

That's an easy 1.3 million right there. Sign Payne Haas!

So Thommo's gone down $50k. Always the way. When we sign them they are on a million when we lose them they free up $50k according to the media.

 

[ASSASSIN]

I think he will kill it under potter

I was one of the most excited to sign him. Sure he hasn't lived up to his ESL form but nobody was playing well under Baz the dud.

Plus he was carrying the whole pack on his shoulders.

I still want to see him playing under Potts and with a better performing team. If he hits his ESL form then everyone will be calling for his re-signing.

$15.5k a week according to the guy who knows him.

 

[D- voice]

$20k a week don’t flatter yourself, do you think Luke is interested in how much money he is earning, let me tell you it’s the last thing on his mind !, hopefully he gets signed off this week to play, then he will prove his value

If total wreck Flanagan did improve so much, can you imagine what Thompson would be like in our new game style ?

 

[Disposable Hero]

Its Not Thommos fault the Andeson paid stupid money for him.
Think of the dollars some of the other players who could not get a contract elsewhere were being paid at the time.

Scarily there are far worse cases.

Canberra signing smelliot on stupid money
Knights signing Chloe's Gimp on stupid money

Mbappe makes more than double that an hour...

If Allen is on 500k why isn't he embarassed

Mbappe's return on investment is instrumental both on and on the field LOL .. Thompsons not so much.

Both Elliot and Klemmer have been good investments for their respected teams. Stats alone back that up. Thomspon though .....

How and where has Flannagan improved "so much"? I don't believe he has. Comparing his stats from when he played under Baz to him now playing under Potter doesn't show him "improve so much" as you're saying. He just hasn't cried during an interview under Potter like he did uncer Baz's tenure BUT there's still time LOL

 

[D- voice]

I'll tell you how he's improved...
Doing the simple thing right
Seamlesslly Linking with the other players
Starting to take on the line
His defence has always been sound

 

[Philistine]

If your boss paid you a lot more than you were worth, would you be too embarrassed to take the money?

 

[wendog33]

I’ve no reason too but I hate west tigers, not sure why maybe comments on here have influenced me or possibly because of that soft arse Tamou, crying for a penalty then my lad missing 5 games, shocking decision

Tigers have certainly downgraded Gildart's game!

I'll how he's improved...

His 1 on 1 defence at times has been terrible!
Do you watch games or just spend your days thinking up cryptic clues for the kennel?

 

[Dogsville]

Exactly, who ever signed Allen to that amount should be the one who is embarrassed

Ah ok, my bad, saw you were replying to a Flanagan post...
