Neither of these are near Saints quality. Never were, never would be.
A knock to the confidence doesn't finish a quality player. For evidence see Gary Connolly in the '89 CC Final. |

Yup, I'd forgotten he existed to be honest.

You have some great youngsters, Johnny Lomax is quality and will become a great player as will Matty Ashurst, Chris Dean & Jamie Foster...you're all raving about Eastmond but mark my words these lads are as good '''just give them time"

Hmmm, hard to answer such a broad question so I'll stick to the two players referred to.
Hardman offered nothing. No real position to stake a claim for, never made a real impact on a game - it was easy to forget he was on the pitch altogether.
Tyrer was a liability in defence. Looked ok on the ball, but would ship in two tries to every one he assisted with.
Our young lads making a claim for the first team should be stand out players. See Connolly, Cunningham, Briers, Wello, Roby, Graham, Eastmond, etc. |

Poor attempt (especially when you consider both players points per game ratio).
You are Kevin Penny and I claim my £5

| Quote: SaintsFan "I wouldn't. I would have Wheeler at centre, regardless of who was fit. However, Wheeler, Dean and Flannery were all non-starters for Saturday's match and so it was down to our more inexperienced young players. Potter should never have switched Foster to centre as he had only had two first grade games on the wing. He needed more confidence in the wing spot before taking the centre spot. Roby could have competently covered centre spot given that we had no centres left. In fact, Potter should have switched between Foster and Lomax on the wing so as to ease Lomax back after such a long lay off. To bring him back for a full match when he'd been away for 10 weeks was just ridiculous.
Mind you, not that any of the above would have made any difference. Bar James Graham and to a degree Eastmond and Roby as well, they were all rubbish.'"
Agree with you. I rate wheeler highly and think he is the best of this latest young crop of players at the moment. Roby should have gone centre when he took foster off - instead he put leon there (or so it seemed to us) and he was a worse tackler than young foster. |

dont call the young ones they are still learning their trade.what does get on my nerves is the parent of these youngplayers, on fri we had the parents of one of the young ones playing, at the back of us they spoiled the game for us no one couldsay anything about the young ones they wanted to fall out with any one who critised them. some of the comments were not nasty they reacted to anyone opening their mouth. they should watch it on tv if they reatact this way.
