Corey Thompson

[Russell]

I was just thinking that maybe Ivan has realised Corry is a good option as backup fullback
So he gives him a full game at fullback against the sharks to really test him
Corry comes trough with flying colours
No need to sign RTS or Barba now
So now he has 1.4million to by players for other more needed positions
What do you guys think

Regardless of how lolohea or Thompson go in the fullback role.. I'd say the club will still be going all out for rts imo

100% RTS for 2019 and Cleary for 2020.
We struggle to attract top players it needs to change.

Really doubt that RTS will want to leave the Warriors. Especially with their current form.

Why would he if he just signed a 3-4 year contract. Sounds like he is happy to me.

Not when he just re-signed 2 weeks ago.

Ooops, didn't realise how old that comment was.

We must remember that the top line players we seek we have recently lost like JAC and Marty.
But also thankfully some top liners may already be here it just may become more apparent in 6 months or so. :wink:

This thread began right before even a ball was kicked including trials, don’t wanna point you out Nucky but I think the terms called “egg on your face” :laughing:

Well he did get out dinked on the wing for Hoffman to score…If I was an opposition Coach I would be making note and going back to that well...

Thompson is less exposed playing Fullback...

Our defence looks better organised with Thompson at the back as well.

Seems always around for the big play. Scored 2 tries when well marked and really he had no right to score against Easts aroun Toupu.
A winner.

That comment was made about him being good enough for first grade…

And I think he’s proved regardless of his height he’s the first one picked in the side!

This is a great point. Liddle, Marsters and (dare I say it) Brooks could be turning heads come September. I also hold hope for Tui - he could be anything. Twal also.

With the kick parra scored he needed to play at the ball and not go in for the tackle.

He will start being targeted so intersting to see how he handles it he needs help from masters too
