News Thompson happy to take pay cut to play at the roosters

[Nate DAWG]

Doesn't that happen with almost all of our ex-players tho...they play out of their skin against us and show skill and determination we never saw at all from them when playing for us... At least on a regular basis!

I think this is an exaggerated view on the kennel. Any player looks better in a better side.

Yeah may be so....they just look like they enjoy scoring tries against us so much it hurts

Agree, I think we just notice it more. Any try Avo scores next year will have multiple threads about it

Whats the latest on the "best prop in the world"?

Apparently signed with Wigan Warriors 4 year deal.

Perfect. Fuck off from NRL.

Good luck to him back in the UK.. I hope he can stay healthy and find his form again with Wigan.. It didn't work out with us but he's done nothing to deserve hard feelings or over the top comments.

 

[Gene Krupa]

My mate is best mates with Toddy Carney and was saying Tod had new cars all the time when he was at the chooks.

Cause he kept crashing them while drunk.

 

[Dogs79]

Still wish him the best of luck and hope he stays healthy. Didn’t work out for us, it’s a shame, I was hopeful that he’d be a great Dogs player for many years. He’ll do well for Wigan. Wigan has always been my SL team, I remember sitting up late or early hours with my Dad and watching great Wigan sides take on St Helens and Hull to name a few and some Classics against touring Kangaroos teams.

 

[Bad Billy]

That's his point.
The real target was Shaq..
Latrell was just the carrot.

The only person targeting Shaq Mitchell is Colonel Sanders.

Good luck to him no doubt he will kill it back over there. He won lotto thanks to the previous administration.
Largely a failure in nrl through a mixture of a shit run with injuries and carrying the burden of expectation of a highly paid yet untried nrl marquee player. It also didn’t help that he was surrounded by a team of plodders.

And the only one targeting Colonel Sanders, is ME!!

Yeah the truth is if he was signed at 260k a year he would be #1 fan favourite, especially due to his 2021 season.
I wonder what Wigan are offering him?
My boy in Manchester told me 650k a year but think he’s making it up. He also told me he fingered Christina Aguilera at a popeyes

Sorry actually one point of clarification.
He fingered Aguilera at a plane station.
Popeyes was some woman English cricketer I don’t know of.

Possibly but more so because uncle Nick owns large stakes in some car dealerships. It’s not hard for him to get a car for a player and throw a few petrol vouchers in the glove box.

There are stipulations on car ownership in the cap
But,
Let’s just say Brandon Skith wants a new bughatti valued at 80k
He might just find a one time discount if 40% off if he paid it with his own money

very smart actually

That's sad tbh. StHelens homecoming would have been better.

 

[belmore_utd]

I remember saying we should look at James Graham before he was on our radar and I had the same thoughts about Thompson. TBF though Thompson walked into a disaster compared to what Graham had to work with.

 

[Shnissss]

Can you name your source, who within the Roosters inner-circle gave you all this information ?

He’s not far off..
