Good signing and very good news that Nev is signed up permanent. Not sure im happy with Thompson going the other way on loan, i would stick him in the centre with Gardner due to the loss of Toa.

I'm arguing that point on the TIW. Good player that looked accomplished when he played earlier on in the season. I hope this is just on loan. I think he looks like he could yet be a decent player.

Ive heard a few say at 22 he should have made it in the first team as a regular but he's never been given a good run to see what he can do. He's always been a strong lad who can score for fun. Lets hope he's back soon.

I will be majorly peeved if the Blackpool deal turns into a permanent one and ill let the club know my feelings.

I totally agree mate and i made my case on the widnes site.He is a strong,fast,bullish player.Not been given a chance like Grady and Yates.In my opinion is twice the player yates is to be honest.Yates is 22 and they have given him many chances.Hopefully a loan period for Thompson, otherwise i wont be happy.Anyway not seen this Haggerty play to comment.Will he play on sunday?

Thing is VM... we have a bit of a history of writing players off young. Look at Coyle and Kain who we both had in their early twenties and released. These two players are now valued by both their clubs.
I also don't understand the argument that he needs to kick on? He looked really handy when he played and got a few good tries.

here's hoping haggy number 2 performs, thompson more than deserves a chance he was a real asset when he played earlier this year
