However, I was not consulted.
Nor me
I thought Thomas was in reasonable form but his kicking let him down. Bolton virtually guaranteed him a game so his selection is not really a surprise.
Charlie Curnow was an emergency last week and didn't play in the NBs. I will be very surprised if he doesn't play two weeks in a row so he'll either be in the 22 or dropped from the squad on Friday.
PS Thomas had 6 tackles against the Swans, equal with Gibbs and behind Ed Curnow with 8. Perhaps Bolts likes that aspect of his game.
