Thompson left the field, clutching his hamstring after a kick, midway through the 30.22 (202) to 10.6 (66) mauling at the Albury Sportsground.
Elliott Powell and Chris Hyde, in his 150th match, ran amok for the Tigers, who kicked 12 goals in a devastating final term.
Former AFL players Josh Mellington (six goals), Setanta O’hAilpin (six) and Dean Polo (five) combined for 17 goals for the two-time reigning premiers.
