| Reportedly refused to agree to the pay cut all his colleagues had and as such and despite reservations, the Club felt that the best solution was his early release, subject to a transfer fee.

| From the outside looks as though Thompson has refused to take a pay cut to leverage an early move to the NRL, not great from his side.
McManus true to form doesn't come across well either, I think a more sensible press release would have been one along the lines of how they wish him all the best but understand his desire to leave for the NRL early given the current situation etc etc. Instead what he has done is create a divide whereby some supporters are blaming the club and some supporters are blaming the player.
McManus has done great things for Saints over the years, but he doesn't half come across as bitter and twisted sometimes.

| McManus is right for me on this one. It’s a club wide pay cut. Can’t ask minimum wage staff to take a pay cut and not apply it to top earners.
Fair play for me

| I'm surprised he was taken before the "world class" Scarsbrook.

| Keeps adding to the speculation that Ben Currie is going to saints as well. Had another fan mention it to me today in work about him signing at saints.

| No doubt Currie will then come back to haunt us in pre injury form.

Well that would free up a good chunk of Money for us, be a shame to see him go, but if we ARE signing McMeeken that would help fill the gap amd Livett is always an option. I know Livett is hit and miss with fans but for me if he gets game time in one position i think he will find great form. I think he would make a brilliant 13 and would fit very nicely in to the team. Backline of Hughes, McMeeken and Livett, might not make fans go crazy with excitement but you could do much worse then that.
Question, how many of you guys would prefer to keep Currie, or would you rather see him move on?

| From Murdoch-Masila and Currie to Livett and McMeeken - big downgrade for me. Josh Jones would help.

Ah, Mr Fertle, I trust you and yours are well.
I agree. The refound form of BMM in the last 18 months will be a big loss.
Livett, on his day, is superb. However, those days are not seen anywhere near enough. McMeeken, I ve not seen enough of. Could he be another Danny Kirkmonde? Shining, whilst surrounded by inferior players.
Which leaves [ithe elephant in the room[/i.... Currie.
(I imagine) We've invested a lot of cap space on him, whilst he's been injured/rehab. It's clear to see he's not the man he was, so do we sign him up again, or let him go, and pray it doesn't come back to haunt us.
Tough decisions ahead.

| I like McMeeken but he's not the same standard as Currie.
It would be a big loss for us.
I think there have been flashes of his pre injury form and really want him to stay.
