Quote: saint billy "I think Pryce should still be in there. OK, his form hasn't been the best but surely he is a much better option than Chris Bridge? If he does hit form, he would really worry the Aussies, i bet there ting themselves at facing Bridge. Even if he didn't get picked, he gives plenty of versatility and if he did hit form, could be devastating.'"
I saw Chris Bridge play centre in 3 games for wire this season and he looked very impressive in all of them (and a [inatural [/icentre to boot). Given the omission of Gleeson, i imagine that's where he's going to be used. The other centres are Shenton, Smith and Sykes. I'd personally go with Bridge and Shenton.
Quote: Blobbynator "Not many great options staring you in the face though is there? I've got a feeling Smith will pick Chris Bridge at Right Centre, but left Centre is up for grabs.'"
I can't see past him picking Shenton for the other spot.
I think Smith has shown some balls in dropping established players.
He still needs to put up a good show in this tournement.
The lee smith pick shows though he hasn't totally gone for a future england strategy.
I think the saints players called up bar wilkin are justified.
I dont really want eastmond to be a standout performer as it will increase his standing when we have yet to seal a new contract.
I suspect he will chime in from the bench in some games.
Its myler and tomkins for 6 and 7 but i think burrow has been a bit hard done by.
Pryce now must see he is at a crossroads for club and country.
He will get a rest and time to think.
Personally I would like potter to give him the 13 shirt and focus on a new 6 and 7 which would be risky but would help the development of the team.
Freed of a sixes responsibility and the responsibility of being the senior half I think we would see Leon back to his best.
We have several options to try next year - wheeler and eastmond, eastmond and moore , wheeler and moore
And if it goes pear shaped Pryce and even wilkin have shown they can do a job in the halves.
Personally I think both wheeler or eastmond would make great sixes its 7 where we may struggle for kicking and organisation. That could bring in a 9 (moore) to take up the slack or we may need to look outside the club in the future.
Sykes inclusion must be a slap in the face for pryce and senior.
Quote: Adrian Monk "To be fair. Hopefully he is taking the place of Rob Burrows. Despite playing in a dominant Leeds team with a great pack, he is no threat at all these days imo. He also gets knocked out more times than MikeTyson in his latter years.
Eastmond and Tomkins would be great addition imo, especially against the kiwis.'"
Burrows gets knocked out .... Well matey, a big man like you could not knock him out OR catch him Not a threat ehh ? well your sad lot could not match his kicking game in the GF (AGAIN ) Still there is always nexy year for you lot ? The only thing is .... you will not be as good in 2010
