David Thompson


The best Chester Hill boy since Baa Lamb.  Thommo dances like Michael Jackson after scoring tries, runs the ball up hard and is rated by some of the greats of the club as a genuine top shelf forward in the making.  He's only 20, but so far as stood up to the test against the best packs in the competition.  Because of his head gear people think he's Steve Price - until they get up close.
