Just read on the Wigan fans site that Thompson has signed for them. Apparently a done deal.

To add context to this, the full post from this particular user was:
"Heard it from match commissioner at the wire v Hull FC game where I wus working we got talking about players and he said wigan av signed luke Thompson and then jenna brooks said same things 20 mins after when she wus talking to my boss
And that it will be acounsed at the end of the season."
Hardly sounds credible to me.
NEVER WRITE OFF THE SAINTS
Warrington signed Graham don’t you know. FWIW I have heard Wigan and Leeds are just trying to run up the offer Saints have given - it’s a matter of Aus or Saints rather than anywhere else. I think people forget this is someone who gave his grandmother address so he didn’t play for the Wigan town teams ...
Whether it's true or not, it's the very thing we've probably all dreaded since he (allegedly) acrimoniously departed. You can imagine it happening can't you?
There’s absolutely no way on earth Wigan could get French, Hastings, Field, Hardaker, Burgess, Gildart, Farrell AND Thompson under the cap.

The credibility of that post was lost when they used wus.

If he comes back anywhere it will be to Warrington. They tried to sign him before he went to Australia. They’ll throw money at him.
Can’t see him coming back to us with the way he left.

As I’ve posted before, I can’t see Thompson giving up on the NRL so easily no matter how homesick he may or may not be. It’s just a shame he went to Canterbury, they look shite though a new coach may turn things around.
Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.
I said it in a different thread.
He will go to who offers him the most money.
Mercenary.
I dont want him back.
He wasnt wanting to help the club out when they needed him to. Instead he used it to manufacture an early release.
I have no issue with players wanting to better themselves, but you have to show a bit of respect to the club .
He didnt.
The club has survived without him.
Gold Coast would be the obvious place with Holbrook. Unless he really hates the place "which he might" not everyone takes to Australia. I do then think it will be Leeds if he comes back. Hethrington needs to get Carrick to throw money at something big. I dont think he will ever come back to Saints and not really sure he would fancy Wire, although they could afford him. Wigan need to pay the rent again soon, so need to be careful, that is if Latics new owners want them.
