| 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....

Will he still have the X-factor? Who knows but its still a 'high profile' signing.'"
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.

| Assuming he turns up super fit and strong (I bet he doesn't),how long till he's good enough to start a match for us? 6/7 weeks?

| No player ever comes back from that code as good as when they left. None.

| Eastmond is a gamble like Gale was, but if it works out it’ll be golden.
It’s also about the intent of the club isn’t it? Fringe England players, Prior, Tetevano, Eastmond - we’re starting to bring a couple of names in again. These experienced players are what the young lads need to see. Mik and Tommy having Tetevano has got to bring them on you would think.
Can’t see how Lui gets a new deal for 22 now unless he pulls up trees or Kyle is a flop.
Definitely a risky signing but, in the circumstances, makes lots of sense. Could even pivot us into being contenders this year TBH. Injuries allowing.
