Interesting move but not sure he can stay healthy anymore. He has hardly played for 2 years has he?

It might work out and if it does it will be great but lets see.

Worth the gamble tho.

Yeah great call Seth.
Honestly thought it was wind up!

Spot on with your comments about McLelland not being good enough and that came from the top last season. I am hoping that McLelland gets his finger out and starts to prove some people wrong. If he cannot force his way into the side now he never will, maybe with this opportunity he will grab it with both hands.

Just Hope Eastmond doesn't pick up any injuries, he has spent half of his career out injured, such bad luck with Injuries. Without the injuries he would have been an established Union international, maybe it will work out for us and we get the best out of him.

Minimal risk here. Was a great player. Pretty much salary cap exemption for this year. We get to have a good look at him. Let’s hope he gets back to the player he was.

In answer to some of the queries. No he's not the player that left. Hardly strung 5 gamrs together in last 5 years due to injury.......
High profile signing, but sadly Im not sure how many games he'll play.....
I reckon we'll start at Fullback, would be alot to ask him to go straight back into the halves....

Wow! Didn’t see this one coming; excited to see him play.

Very good signing by us covers our recent injuries positions in the backs ( Fullback, Centre and halves) also he's salary won't all be on cap because he's been out of league for more than 5 years, hope he can regain form when he was at saints and was very good in union at his time at Bath but did pick up some injuries in last couple of years.

No, would only ever post if I'd heard somethings happening.

Good lad. Where dya get your info? Or would you have to kill me if you told me?

Suprising one this , not the quality half back i was looking for and as injury prone as Walker , but if not going to cost much maybe worth the gamble

Harris was one of the best half backs we've seen in the Super League era. 3 years (or thereabouts) in Union had effectively turned him into a donkey. What chance does Eastmond have? Be great to be proved wrong but I really doubt I will be...

Interesting indeed. At Wire, we had the same debate two years ago when we signed Luther Burrell. I watched him in his debut for us and said straight away that he wouldn't make it - he looked frightened to death. Shame, as he is a big unit. But as others have said, you can view these RU signings as a low-risk gamble, and Eastmond obviously has greater RL pedigree than Burrell had. Time will tell, but I look forward to watching him play.

On field performance is not ashtrays what signings are about . Look at your club and Inglis! Keeping fans and sponsor's happy brings in revenue. Tick box with Eastmond, plus the kind if player a neutral would choons into watch.
If we get 10 games out of him in the season, I think we'll have done well....

Donkey..... Ha..... Eeeyaww, Yawnion...!

Hope it is a masterstroke and no doubt fueled by Long.
High profile signing? Not sure he is that now.
Liked him at Saints so let`s hope he stays injury free and delivers on the pitch.
For all we know he might be paid on game by game basis.
Now that would be a masterstroke.
