Johnathan Thurston

Now personally I hate the man Thurston, but the player Thurston is the best halfback in the game and I think Parramatta really needs him. The more I watch the Eels play and the more I watch the Cowboys play I see what Thurston can bring to our team on the field and that is "Direction".

 

The way he guides his second rate Cowboys around the field is exactly what we need. Thurston controlling our backline along with Hayne stepping in when he wants would be pretty much unstoppable.

 

If we have to bite the bullet and lose a few of our long serving players  to get Thurston, Then I say we should do it.

 

I'm aware Thurston hasn't won the Cowboys a Premiership, But Thurston doesn't have the attacking weapons at Cowboys that he would have at Parra at his disposal.

 

End of the day  Hayne + Thurston = Premiership

  • Yeah Signing the best Halfback in the world is a crazy idea.
    • Yes crazy. While I agree that JT would be an asset to the team, or any team for that matter, where the hell are we going to get 750k from? A little out of our price range.
  • Mate it's never going to happen so keep dreaming.
  • money grows on tress dont it lol
  • Great idea but at those prices we'd get Hayne, Thurston and the Wenty Magpie Under 7s.
  • LOL thats funny Johnny and oh so true !!!!
  • I agree Jamesy if we let go of inu,grothe, mateo and kris keating we would be able to afford him then we will be able to get that premiership we as parra fans have long waited for.
  • Don't need Thurston. We got the players, just need to put Mortimer halfback and Mateo five eighth.
  • Yeah, while we're at it we should try and lure Cameron Smith, Cooper Cronk and Greg Inglis across to Parra.
