Needs to work on his fitness, was absolutely knackered part way through the 1st half. Staggering around like a drunk. To be fair, its been a while (bar 10 mins against Hull) since he had a competitive run out.



Eastmond - what impresses me more than his pace and elusiveness is his excellent kicking game, and tonight, his fantastic goalkicking. Turning into a rounded player.

Myler has played a lot more games at scrum half in Super League than Eastmond has.

of what i saw of Salford last year, Ratchford looked the better halfback of the two.

Salford hardly counts as Super league experience

As I said playing for a team will little expectations that are not involved in any big games is not going to prepare you for playing for England or in Saints-Wire derbies.

He isn't doing that bad. There was not this reaction to Eastmond after Long outplayed him in round 1.

He is still learning what big games are all about.



They are quite different half backs its hard to compare the two.

He looks a bit slow for a half back to me. I am not sure where he would fit into any other team. But still, not a bad player.

I agree, he is only a young lad who plays in the most important postions in the team, he needs time.

Kyle and tomkins ain't the same style players as myler, kyle and tomkins like to run with the ball which is easier than being a out and out playmaker like myler will be.

Im sure all 3 will be top class players but kyle has the x factor, he's a match winner just as longy was.
