Re: Luke Thompson

Miski cannot be a starting winger on a contending team - no chance. He's a capable rotation player who finishes off moves but he's not big enough nor quick enough & isn't an insane finisher or defender to make up for it. He works as the extra man to a scoring edge but he's limited to exactly tha...

Re: Bevan French - STAYING

For some though family is always more important and can't be underestimated not saying what you say is wrong but we all have differing outlooks and wants out of life. That's why I put back "home." That's the main/only benefit of going to the NRL for him. He's already proven. He's entering...

Re: Bevan French - STAYING

French will not get the space he does in the NRL and would be a much less effective player over there (as he was in his first stint). Horses for courses. He is suited to SL far more. Deep down he will know that. Prior to Magic Weekend, Bevan had scored 35 tries in 47 games for Wigan. He had the EXA...

Re: Bevan French - STAYING

Bloody hell!! 🤨 They didn’t just come for the Hull game!!!! They were here last week for the Magic game also!

Re: Bevan French - STAYING

Any thoughts about his family being in the stadium on Friday? Possibly for the media for his announcement? I don't know how often they travel over here but that felt quite significant & would explain any logistical hold up. It’s the first time they’ve left home. Bevan comments on that in his in...
