He's not been great since his return, in a team that he should have allowed him to shine this year, he's looked very average. Seems like a motivatuon thing to me, like 85% effort has been his level.

Mago can go for me, he turned into another Feka after 2 months. Either he shapes up, gets fitter and leaner and stays or he can go.

I have a feeling Cooper was Singletons replacement come early, so maybe if Singo did go we wouldnt replace. I like Singleton though






Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

I take it from that the club have had unofficial discussions about the matter. If his house is up for sale it gives the impression he intends moving house at least. There's a thread on another board saying he's off to Wests and they've agreed a transfer fee of AUD$250k - £140k and Sheens has spoken to the player or his agent.

Still plenty time for this to happen and I suppose more will become clear after the World Cup has finished.

Dan? Is that you?


Only kidding Ted :lol: :D :D

He does want to go, or to put it more accurately, his missus wants to go. I put it on here a couple of months ago that an ex Wigan player told me he wanted to leave and go back over there so with it coming from somebody who will have been told directly and all the rumours i would be stunned if he was here in 23' but he hasn't been playing like a marquee anyway. It suits all parties.

Admittedly this was last season so maybe Thompson has made his peace with Saints because there was certainly no love lost when he left.


It’s well known around St Helens that Thompson has no intention of playing for anyone other than St Helens and has been since he went to Aus. As for when he left, you couldn’t be more wrong. McManus was at the airport to see him off. Don’t believe everything you read on redvee

With regards Bateman. I would be inclined to believe what Wigan say over the Aussie press.

I hope he stays, we need players of his calibre in SL

As well known as Wardle not signing for Wigan? Take that to the bank.

We do because it is a poor competition, the game in the UK is on the slide.

Like Solomona was never going to play for anyone but Wakefield ... until Bradford made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

I don’t believe everything I read on Redvee but I believe a direct phone call I had with a mate of mine who is a decision maker at the club who told me.

It’s well known that all the players took pay cuts during Covid apart from Thompson. That’s why he left mid season and not at the end of the season like the original deal was.
