I doubt whether we paid Green and Taylor more than you did, given the salary cap I'd have thought they would earn more at Hull KR were there weren't the likes of S.Tomkins, Charnley and O'Loughlin taking up cap space

Would it be a blow if he left? Certainly, but I honestly haven't seen anything in his performances in the first team that leads me to believe he would be our best player in the future.
Yes his time in the first team has been limited, but being amazing in U19s does not always translate to being a star player at Super League level. He may well become a very good player, but he hasn't torn teams apart yet, even when he got a little run in the side mid-season, so I'm not sure how people seem to be praising him as the next big thing?'"
But he's not had a run at 6 which is 'his position'. Until he's had that we can't judge either way

It is double standards because IL is always telling us if we lose a player to the NRL we won't stand in his way. Well if we lose a player to another SL side who has got a better deal in his view what is the difference?
None.
Thornley is out of contract. If IL wanted him to stay he had to outbid HKR. Simple.

| Thornley did right if the deal he got from HKR was a better fit for him and his family. There could be other contributing factors about him wanting to leave Wigan only he and his know that . All this guff about Wigan looking after him after he got injured is nonsense IMO after all he got injured playing for Wigan .

| Thornley did say in the local rag that playing every week was the main appeal.

If he doesn't have the confidence to fight Gelling and Sarge for a spot then good riddance. Look at our 3 wingers. All are getting good game time and I'm sure Thornley would next season. Also, is he guaranteed a start at HKR with Mantellato and Whelham there?
