Matt Scott would be a huge loss to the Cowboys, he and Tamou are as good a front row as any in the NRL. Interestingly when you look at this local Townsville Bulletin article all the supporters comments seem very anti JT and would they would prefer to keep Scott over Thurston.

Former Sydney Roosters, Parramatta, Dragons and Newcastle coach Brian Smith has opened up on his suspicions of performance-enhancing drug use in the National Rugby League, casting doubt on one current leading player.
Smith, now a part-time assistant at Super Rugby team the Brumbies, weighed into the scandal surrounding the Australian Crime Commission's findings on sport, explaining his eyes had been opened to the murky world of illegal substances in rugby league more than a decade ago.
The 58-year-old, sacked by the Roosters last September with a year to go on his deal at Moore Park, also revealed suspicions about one of the competition's present elite players.
"A pretty fair player who fitted the 'before' photo in a body-building mag left my club as we did not think he would get 'the rig necessary to cut it in the NRL'. To our surprise, he bobbed up at another club just a couple of seasons later looking like the 'after' photo!" Smith writes in an online column.
"He has absolutely carved it and is now one of the top line in our sport. Did he cheat to get there? I have no proof. Perhaps the latest big investigation will uncover the validity of these types of accusations or innuendos to clear that player or condemn those who have taken the short cut."

A rumour i expect to be shot down with flames.
There is nothing more than just suspisions of drugs fueled by Labor shadow men trying to deflect attention from upcoming election. It certainly keeping it off the front page.
The kid from Norths example of just joke texts sent that have been swooped on by frenzied media.
