Can't see it happening. That would be a big pay off to get him out of his new 5 year contract!

The rumour has been about on our board for a week or so with Quins and Saracens mentioned.
Looks to me like the Sun journo has been scouting about for stories.

"Tomkins may not be picked in the England squad because of the possibility of a move."
No, he won't be picked because we have better options at centre and second row.

Hope it's rubbish. We need our good English players to stay.
If it is untrue, and I was the England coach, i'd stick him straight in the England squad, and then get him doing press interviews rubbishing the story and promoting the 4N's.

Could be some truth in it seeing as both Tomkins brothers recently signed up with a large firm of sports agents who have a guy on their payroll with a remit for "maintaining the company's presence in rugby league, identifying talent with the ability to switch to Union".

Could be a case of 2+2=5. Lets hope so. |

Big shame if either Tomkins goes. The usual arguements will of course come out. Rugby league in England cannot keep losing it's top young talent.
And That guys job description is ridiculous!

easiest job in the world -all he has to do is phone a few journalists and say "my client is keen to move to union" and wait for the story to build its own momentum.

I've been telling you about this for weeks. I posted on here about how they both spent time with Saracens twice during the season on their days off from Wigan.
Au reviour I say.

If they go, they go. Anyone going has nothing to do with Chase being picked as Schofield's spouting more the 'challenge' (read: money0 and 'opportunity' (read: little chance of bagging a royal in league) and the other guff they say.

If I was Joel Tomkins I would look at what happened when another of Wigans fans favourite left the club, Andy Farrell and switched codes, it rarely works out and in my opinion for Sam going from league to union is a big step backwards.

Ditto
We spent enough years raiding rugby union for talent. Any RL player who wants to switch codes should simply just go and do it. There'll be others to take their place. |

Can Wigan command any sort of transfer fee for him to get out of his contract?

more than likely. RU had to pay a lot for the likes of Harris (£1m) and that |

Why do Union want him, do they not watch him play and SL and see him make numerous mistakes and give away penalties???? When i watch this kid, yeah he is big and strong but i get really frustrated, usually forcing the pass and doesn't seem to have a decent rugby brain between the ears.

We can't lose his brother to RU, whatever it takes.
Joel is very replaceable, Sam is a one off so lets get behind him in the 4N, lets show him how much England needs him.

If you think that would persuade him to refuse any lucrative offer, you're madder than Jack McMad.
Every player's a one-off and none are worth central contracts or any other such nonsense. If they want to go, wish them well, move on and find their replacement. |

| All we can hope is that for the time being only Joel switches codes, quickly realises what a bag of sh*t union is, and convinces his brother not to follow him to the dark side  |
