| Quote jonh="jonh"The major downside as to why this move could or is being linked to happening though is due to the loss of Smithies.
I’m guessing Thompson will be first choice 13 even if he doesn’t wear the number should Farrell come but either way it will be a downgrade on Smithies and whilst you can’t fault the lad for going it’s frustrating he is leaving.'"
As good as Smithies has been a fully fit Luke Thompson at this moment in time is better.
There seems to be an acceptance on here that he is going to come back a shadow of himself. The foot injury is fully healed now and he has a point to prove. I think we're going to get a peak Thompson who will do well for us.
When his 4 years is up and Smithies has filled his bank balance with aussie dollars he can come back and replace him. |

You'd have thought the RU press would be all over this, a lot of them don't want him in the team anyway and he'd be the perfect scapegoat if England get beat.

Smithies will be a huge loss. For me he's easily the best 13 in the league and seems to get better week on week. He'll be the starting 13 for England and will only continue to kick on from there.
Personally though, I think he's jumping the gun by a couple of years. It's obvious to anyone that there's a good feel around the club. I can't believe a player who's gone through some of the bad days, would leave when things look to be turning. We could be in for a special period here and he'd be right in the middle of it too.

Completely agree with all of this. The guy's a machine and its gutting to lose him irrespective of any other recruitment. |

Wigan tv has an interview with IL. He’s said Fields the best player he’s seen during his time as owner and it’s great we’ve got him at least another couple of years.

Go on... out with it Jukesays... what do we know?
As much as I empathise and share the frustration of fans if Morgan Smithies goes to the NRL. The excitement/fascination of seeing how Owen Farrell would fair in Super League as well as the much much much needed publicity it would bring to us and the game is outweighing that disappointment for me.
God I hope this rumour is true.  |
