So Gareth Thomas is on CBB.



Some of the players seem to be supporting him on Twitter and it's great exposure for the game.



However, he doesn't seem to be bigging up League much which is pretty sad when he has a job at the RFL.

Nah, it's a blessing. I hope he keeps totally quiet about League, especially if he manages to do and/or say too much that is embarrassing. We want good publicity, not crap publicity!

Any publicity is good publicity though. Especially on a show as big as this

Its a joke of a programme and I hope he does not mention league at all. loose lips sink ships and all that

Hope he does well, can't see him being unliked.

The intro was 30 seconds long, he played Rugby League for 5% of his career. Bloody chill out you lot.

He could be this years Paddy. (not that i watch it)

I see that Natasha Giggs has entered Big Brother; makes a change from Big Brother entering Natasha Giggs

We don't need exposure from this crass, trashy, tin pot programme.



Are we actually that desperate for publicity?

When you posted this, he'd probably been in the house for an hour. Give him a chance.

I simply don’t understand why a respected professional athlete would agree to do such a programme – I know that the BB brand can start a celebrity career but surely Thomas should be looking at something better than this tacky route full of talentless wannabe’s and stinking of desperation



I have a lot of respect for Gareth Thomas but less now than I did before



Just my opinion of course

Natasha and Giggsy have alot more in common than people think.



For a start they are both on channel 5 this year!
