It's on the Saints Official website now.

Now the next thing is to get ourselves sorted and move on.

Any realistic chance of us securing the services of his replacement soon and cancelling the remainder of Kyles contract?

No on the replacement and on what grounds could we cancel his contract.We would have to pay him off.

Eastmond is going at the end of the season, and according to him its the challenge he's going for and not the money. may i suggest that if he wanted a challenge in union he should have signed for Leeds union, Sale or Newcastle. now that would have been a challenge.
we all know why he signed for Bath, and it wasn't for the challenge. why doesn't he just admit its the money and nothing else. or does the truth hurt him?

Now perhaps that you lot know where you stand things might improve on the field. He should have come clean ages ago and I thought it showed at Friday nights game that there was "tension" between the players.

I think it is a bad move for him but hey, I am sure we would all show our a55es in B&M for the money he is getting.

Will Simmons do the same as McRae did with Myler and not play him for the rest of the season? By the way, who is Eastmonds agent? Is it a certain numpty who is on Sky Sports News every Sunday at 2130 hours?

This might add a tad of credibility to the rumour that I heard recently that Sean Long is going to return sooner rather than later to Saints.

No it's not Offiah and Longy isn't coming back.
I'd play him into the ground, hospital passes the lot

I still question the "heart" of Kyle?? union may be the softer option we will wait and see but I still say Taxi for Eastmond, let Bath take him now and pay him! also give St Helens a fair fee!

Kyle wanted his 2011 salary paying up. Keep him and rot him in the reserves.

Or hospital pass the b@stard to death..

His contract with Bath only starts in November, why would he go without pay until then? If the club want him out then they'll have to pay up his contract. Just as any employer would.

As long as he gives his all for the rest of the season I have no problem with him staying, just as I didn't when Lyon decided he wasn't stopping, or any of the others who have done the same.

That would depend upon their reasons for disposing of his services. If he was fired for disciplinary reasons, for example, Saints need not pay him a penny. However, unless he goes on a stropfest ala Friday night then I doubt that will happen. Nevertheless, I still think he should be our backline cover for this season in order to give our young guns chance to showcase themselves while the club are deciding who to recruit as a replacement.

as far as i'm concerned let him go. nobody is or will ever be bigger than saints.

But that isn't the case, and it's very unlikely to ever be. And I don't think 'Walking off the pitch without clapping the fans' would be accepted as gross misconduct in the inevitable tribunal...

Well, I was just trying to grasp some straws!
