| Quote Saint from Prestwich="Saint from Prestwich"shame some of our other youngsters are not as good.Ashurst,Dixon,Dean,Wheeler -all very average.'"
I think Ashurst, Dixon and Wheeler have great potential, with Wheeler he is more of a creative player, which will make him a good 6, however with him being on the wing yesterday it is more of a finishing position which is like a fish out of water. So I'd say don't judge him yet, wait until he's playing more at 6.
Ashurst and Dixon are still only young and are being moved in and out of the squad on a weekly bases, so when they're playing regular first team then they might start to show their true potential.

I think both Wheeler and Dixon could be regulars in the Saints 17 for years to come. I'm still unconvinced by Ashurst though.
And unfortunately, every quality performance Kyle puts in (which lets be honest, is every week) makes me think he is inching closer and closer to the 15-man code

Eastmond is standing out above Tomkins at the minute because he is standing out for your men, whereas Tomkins is being outshone by a lot of his team-mates (including his brother) who are all in good form, although he's hardly been rubbish. I think that Eastmond is easily the better physical athlete out of the two. You can tell that just by looking at him. But in terms of rugby league skills such as distribution and kicking there really isn't anything between them

So hes the best out the 2 because he helped you scrape a win against the bottom side in the league, Sam got the MOM the other week or has that result been put to the back of your mind already? Sam has in no way been that impressive this year but to declare Eastmond as another class is absolute bollox.

| I have to admit Eastmond is easily the best of the youth coming through super league and has the potential to be world class I really enjoy watching him play and I hope from an English point of view he continues to progress, shame we haven’t got him

| I think Dixon had a decent game yesterday too. I don't see the hype around Wheeler being justified though, he's solid but no more. I don't see anything in Ashurst to explain his presence in the squad. Where was Fozzard again?

How Sam Tomkins got MOM against us is beyond me.
But, they are both class players. The thing that probably gives Eastmond an edge is his electric pace. You can't teach that.

They won and we didn't? I can't think of any other reason.

Tomkins was miles better than Eastmond in the derby game. Tomkins has pulled of quite a few bits of magic this year. Both have been great. Eastmond has made a much bigger improvement on last year than Tomkins though.
