I wouldn't purely on age with Eastwood being 23 while Ryan is 31.

I hope this isn't true.

I'd hope so too, as I reckon he could turn out to be one of our best signings, but if the lad is homesick we' re never going to keep him, so let's hope Garry has a plan!

With Webb, Lauititi and Mclennan at the club we have as good a chance of keeping hold of him as any other club in SL would. I would hope having those kiwi's around the place helps.

Andrew Ryan has been a Canterbury great.

In exchange for Greg Eastwood though, no thanks.

The Aussie media just won't let this Eastwood homesick rumour alone. If it eventually turns out to be true I hope Leeds go with what they've got rather than add anymore antipodeans to the playing rosta.

Greg

Either quit moaning or fook off. Your choice.

Would definately agree with that.

Would definately agree with that as well.

If he doesnt want to be here then he may as well not be. I'm sick of hearing about him being unhappy now.

He could come out and say the rumours are true but he doesnt.

I'd rather have a 31 year old Andrew Ryan who wants to be here than a 23 year old Greg Eastwood who doesnt.

Greg certainly isn’t playing like he doesn’t want to be here. I personally couldn’t care less what happens off the pitch because a lot of sports people live troubled lives off them.

In football Ashley Cole is a fine example of someone who has a bad time (debatable but you get where I’m coming from) off the pitch with the divorce. Yet he performs excellent on it as far as I’m aware.

In Golf (Gents Only Ladies Forbidden) Tiger Woods led a lifestyle that’s frowned upon off the course. But on it he’s an absolute legend.

Looks like this forum is turning into the ‘Hello Magazine Brigade’ been concerned about what players are getting up to off the pitch!

Hope this rumour is not true. No smoke without fire as they say. Greg could stop this episode dead in its tracks by simply saying yes its true or no its not.

Eastwood did an interview refuting the original claims a few weeks back as did GH.
His response to a question about how he had settled in was that he was feeling a little down because he hadn't been here long and was out with a broken wrist to which the paper completely turned it on it's head and declared he was homesick and wanted out.
However if he wants out then there's no point trying to keep an unhappy player although i hope it's bollox.

wasn't it also the telegraph who said Buderus was off home...

I wouldn't be suprised if he goes.

I think it's a load of tosh to be honest! I agree with perp, if you don't wanna be here get yaself off! but that paper prints so much guff.

westerman anyone!
