Manly Sea Eagles back rower Joel Thompson has received an early release from his contract with the Manly Sea Eagles as he looks to join Super League club St Helens from 2021.
Thompson will be a good replacement for outgoing St Helens forward Luke Thompson who was released with immediate effect by the club to join the Canterbury Bulldogs in the NRL.
Thompsons size and mobility will be a handy addition to the St Helens side. He is a good honest performer who is also engaged in a lot of off field community activities.
I reckon he will end up being a really popular player at St Helens.
