Just pure scum are Wigan. Such a scummy hive of scum.
If Thornley is such a talent and such a strapping lad and is 18, why the feck hasn't he already got a 4 year deal? Why hasn't he played in the first team? If he's genuinely so good why not cut one of the useless NRL players and sign him up?
You are not telling me that Thornley is going to Sale for anything other than money. Hands in pockets FFS, cut the overseas players and the numerous exemptions and act responsibly FFS.
You can't have 7 overseas stars from the NRL on bumper deals and they blame it all on the salary cap either.

Has no-one bothered to read my post? Or are you that arrogant and dense you just choose to ignore it and still spit out this bitter drivel?
Iain Thornley was offered a contract by Wigan. He was offered the chance to turn professional, but he rejected the offer because he wanted to finish off his A-levels. The agreement was he would join the first-team squad once his studies had finished. Sale RU have been chasing Thornley since he was a teenager. They have offered him X amount of money that no right-minded club would offer to an untested 18 year old. Especially since his form and progress has stagnated this season.
