Lindsay Thomas

It's all coming to an end for one of the toughest players ever. One of the most reliable shots at goal, both in play and set shot.

Honestly though, is he the worst 200 gamer ever? North should have let him go and kept Boomer or Del Santo for one more year.

LOL agree. I reckon he was OK a few years ago, inconsistent yet would have a decent game now again.

These days he is consistent.

consistently bad :P

He has competition. Fraser comes to mind - and at least Thomas got there from pick 56 - no-one used a number-one draft pick on him.

Also, he's kicked 52 more career goals than Leon Davis in 24 fewer games, so he's not the worst small forward of all time, either.

Comes out in his first game back and elbows someone in the face.

He is mentally gone.

I'll say it again, North should have kept Boomer for one more year and let Thomas go.

Aw geez, Fraser? Josh should have been a 300 gamer and premiership player. :(
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

He will get four, broke the players code. He is one of those players that crosses the white line and goes nuts. Off field he is totally opposite.
