Thomas played in 19 games in 2011 and led the club in tackles (123) and was second in handballs received (210), helping to break through the lines and give the side much-needed run. Enjoyed a career-best season in 2010 after an injury-plagued first four years. Had an interrupted pre-season but has maintained his running ability throughout, so should be right for Round 1. Is capable of performing effective run-with roles and is in the prime of his career.
