That is odd. You’d think we’d need everyone at the moment with plenty more rugby to go this year and Mellor and (possibly) Sutcliffe out long term. Will probably get more injuries too. Shame his Leeds career has petered out this way.

Aye. Bit like Keinhorst did. Solid, workhorse like, rarely did anything wrong, 6/7 out of 10 every week. Gets injured, never seen again.

Not sure about falling out of favour more like he's plays where we have plenty of cover. Agar did say he wanted to keep him but understood why he would want to move. Age 22 you need to be playing each week. We couldn't offer that.

Maybe due to salary cap. We got our fingers burnt last season by not loaning out enough players. Or we have cover he's not art of our future

Tough one.good lad and versatile player but I cant see us winning consistent trophies as a genuinely top class team with him at centre or second row- we should have better options.Having said that, Agar appears to rate him but we dont know the offers on the table.

I might be the first reading between the lines but since he turned down the Leeds deal to sign for Castleford, he’s fallen down the pecking order like the club has said we ain’t going to play you if you aren’t part of the future.

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

This is exactly what has happened, and rightly so. Great lad, but the club should invest in those that are part of our future not our past.

Thats all well & good but when you sign plodders like Thompson he isnt going to want to stay is he?
