Haven sign Oscar Thomas on permanent deal Oscar Thomas Whitehaven RLFC has signed Oscar Thomas on a permanent deal which will see the versatile Scottish international remain until the end of the season. Thomas initially signed a month’s trial with the club and made his debut coming on for the second half in the Betfred Challenge Cup second round defeat versus Widnes Vikings. Despite only playing 40 minutes against the Vikings, Thomas impressed the coaching staff enough in training to secure this deal for the remainder of the campaign. Speaking after signing the deal, Thomas said: “It’s been a long year of uncertainties since I last played, and so I’m excited to be back out playing the game I love and I’m grateful for Whitehaven for giving me this opportunity.”
