And how poor was Thurston at the beginning of the season?? Your point is??

Oh geez, these f*cking people on this site...




Jonathan Thurston has been one of the best players in the world for half a decade.

Watmough has played about 10 good games in his entire career!

You stupid idiot!

And thats good enough to make him a Kangaroo,an origin player,and 5th in the Dally Ms,wow!!!

dont buy into this theory of earning 'megabucks' in the ESL any more. the exchange rate at best over last few months has been around the $2 to £1.

So, if say Leeds offered £150k to someone like Watmough, its only worth $300k a year. surely a player of his calibre must be on that already or if he stays in the NRL?

it can not be as attractive financially to move to England any more surely? maybe this is thereason why my team Wigan have yet to recruit from Aus because of the extortiante dollars they player wants with no thought of how much a dollar is worth to the pound
