The St Helens Reporter and Serious About RL are reporting that Tomkins has stated that he is committed to join us for 2022, regardless of us being in the Championship. He said he had an option to stay at Catalan but he is committed to Leigh and was not going to pull out of the contract.
Positive sign for sure.

Not sure when he actually signed for Leigh but he must have known then that you were odds on to go down anyway surely ?

Will be 35 and does 10 games a season, garbage signing

Isnt he playing in GF this evening

He's in the squad

Makes him sound like a quality addition to our squad then, and not one we would expect to sign in his prime

If you think so we will see

few more signings like jt and we can all stay at home

Possibly he knows who he is playing with.

Exactly Atomic , I think Joel is a quality signing , and I also think Derek knows who we have already signed for next season , he has already stated we are staying full time , so I’m expecting some decent signings being announced very soon .

Totally agreed.
Watching him in today’s GF points to a different player than a couple of comments above suggest he is.
Great signing for me and very happy he has committed to us for next season.

VC , I think Joel is a bit of a character, yeah he made a mistake in the Wigan Bar , but that’s gone now , he looks a good player , the type we need , put him in a good pack and he will shine .

Tomkins, Stone, Whitbread, Sidlow and hopefully Ioane will be the cornerstones of a great pack that will see us promoted.

Promoted to what - is it not 2x 10 the season after, ain’t no champ team stepping into that - imagine telling 3 SL teams there coming down, be like turkeys voting for Xmas

Charles, Joel is now a 'Rectum of Leigh'
