I’d like to see Jordan Thompson stay, can only see him being on cheap wages and if we sign some quality players that take up a lot of cap then he would be a versatile cheap player that while never looks amazing, never lets anyone down and can basically play anywhere, other than on the wing in Australia against Wigan lol

He’s garbage, wasn’t good enough in his first spell with us, hence us getting rid and he’s even worse now. Btw he wasn’t with us for the Oz trip.

… he wasn't "garbage" when he played @warrington, but hasn't been picked since.

The term “Garbage” is used far to often on here. Whilst I’m not a fan of Thompson and wasn’t in favour of his re signing I wouldn’t describe him as “garbage” nor Adam Swift even before he’d signed

Okay he’s not good enough for a team that want to be challenging, whether he’s in the 17 or as a squad player.

Thompsons defence is poor. Misses far too many tackles

Re: Recruitment 2020 : Thu Jun 06, 2019 6:48 am  

The thought of keeping Thompson whilst losing either or both of Green and Hadley, is very depressing.

Two mistakes with Thompson were made, one signing him back and giving him a 2 year deal. Very average player, hopefully like before he will be fed up of not playing and ask for a release.

As a club when you have good quality squad players Like Green and Hadley you have to think carefully about who will replace them if you let them go. No squad is made up entirely of star players and these guys do a lot of the hard graft that allows some of the others to shine. I rate both of them and would like to see them stay. They will definitely be snapped up by other Super League clubs if we don't retain them. As for Thompson I just don't see him getting any game time for the first team next season at all.

Green has been playing well since he got fit. An aussie who would offer more would cost a fair chunk extra cap so recruitment needs to be spot on for me

Re: Recruitment 2020 : Thu Jun 06, 2019 3:58 pm  

Anybody have any stats for total amount of games missed by Hadley and Green last few seasons?

Release and out combined wage towards a better quality signing whos not always injured
