Joel Thompson

Just see on FB Telegraph reports Joel had a serious fall. Can't access Telegraph what's the latest.
I liked Joel as a player another we should have retained longer.

Last I heard he has serious concussion but should be fine. He is a great player and a better bloke but I’m glad he’s found a home at Manly.

Yes our lose played the game as one should with no crap in his game.

Also could play centre so you didn’t waste a bench spot on a back who was never used. We need a player like him.

Jackson Ford is that player his emergence will add a lot to us next season.

Amen to that- hard as nails and never let the team down wherever he played- Like FCD, I hoped that Jackson Ford might develop to provide that tough, speedy, utility, backrow/centre option that Joel and Beau Scott before him provided but it hasn't happened so far.

Great back rower , had bad luck with injuries. Very versatile and ran great lines. Good luck to him.

Would love having a fit Joel Thompson in our team right now. Great player at his peak.

I would rather sign JT for 1 year than Mariner for 2 years.

Any other 35 year old 2nd rowers we should be looking at?
