Quote Diracula="Diracula"The heartening thing for me is that both Eastmond and Tomkins seem to be improving apace - not indicative of one season wonders who then struggle when people are keeping a close eye on them.
They could be a truly scary partnership for England / GB.'"
I've not had much chance to watch Eastmond so far this season but having seen every minute of every game Tomkins has played I can definetly say he's improving his alround game. His kicking game and passing game has come on a bundle and he's playing more as an out and out halfback for the team rather then as an individual talent.
He's still got that magic moment in him though as he proved at Wire when he had possibly his poorest game in a Wigan jersey yet won us the game with a sublime individual piece of skill.
Like you say it's a scary prospect long term how good those 2 lads can become for England.
