Yeah right.

This is the same bloke that wrote Tedesco Moses and woods to the dogs months before it come out

We later found out had the dogs not rejected Moses this would have happened, what a fine mess their cap would be now, maybe we shouldn't be too quick to dismiss this bloke.

looks like he is spot on again
 
Gaining traction on Facebook. Someone on Twitter (Neil Evans?) believes we’re saving an announcement for the second half of the season. Which would rule out pre June. Holmes is one of the names linked. Taupau is another. Apparently TPA’s worth 400k fell through for 2 Manly players and they are not happy campers.

He is not a fullback!!!!

He is an Australian/Qld Rep and has won a premiership… although he didn’t go gangbusters at fullback he was playing behind a pack that wasn’t doing too well... they also didn’t really give him any time to prove himself.

He is a GUN.

I've heard he could heading north to the Cows .. isn't he from up there ??

He is from up there, and the cows tried to sign when he was last off contract
 
As a fullback, I’d rather Thompson. I’d take him as a winger though. If he’s been constantly overlooked as a fullback, you have to believe there’s something to it.
 
I think that Holmes is a good player. He sees himself as a fullback, but the coach at his current club does not. I am sure we have been down this path before.

Apparently Greg Eastwood and Robbie Farah have also approached the tigers, frustrated that they are not getting opportunities at fullback at their current club.
 
:roll

Agreed. He is a great ball runner and finisher. A talent yes, but he lacks the ball playing nause which is now required to play fullback.
How does he go under the high ball? Because i cannot fault Thompson. He has been great for us. One thing is for certain people, Nofa won’t see out his contract with us.
