You guys scored a quality bloke aswell as a player. Good signing, he'll be missed.
As a raider supporter as soon as we went all in to re sign Papalii I expected to lose Thompson. We can't afford to have over a million a year in the backrow.
What??
Thompson is a good signing in my opinion (if we get him that is). Lost Scott at the end of last year & almost certainly Cooper at the end of this year. If we are going to sign established players who cares where they come from.
:lol:Lol, thanks scoop.
Oh, and btw, Soward has signed.....with the Panthers.
Don't get serious. This is now officially a piss take thread. There's a real one elsewhere on the board.Not really who we should be spending all our cash on - No half, no 5/8 for 2014
Saw the tweet from him this morning as well. Says it's a 3yr deal and wasn't about money as all offers were very similar. He and his wife believe it is best for their family.
Good signing but were do you think he will line up? We have a stack of backrowers.....
I've seen a few raiders games with him at centre. He is handy there but not really the strike centre we should be chasing. That said he is still better than either centre we have at this point in time.
