Another thing you and I agree on. I'm off to take up drinking again!

Totally agree - Pryce is not now and has never been a standoff

Give over - he's done nothing on the big stage. Needs a rocket big time or should be shifted out of such a key psoition as 6. May be now is time to move him to FB?

It's not a case of 'could' - Pryce has been playing like a loose forward for three years. The similarities between his game and Sculthorpe's are uncanny at times.

I would be tempted to let him leave this winter, let him go back to Bradford and get someone else in....who that is though, I just dont know.

Pryce is a talented runner of the ball in the correct position he can be a massive asset to Saints. I'd like him to be officially played at Loose forward but if he needs to stay in the back then I'd have him in at Centre or even get him to fullback where he can still inject himself into the game. That would leave the 6 spot open for Wheeler to stake a claim

Pryce came to Saints because he was told he would be playing stand-off, now, for what ever reason his form has gone so should his right to choose where he plays. I would play him at centre next year with Wheeler at stand-off, I would also give Tom Armstrong a few games in place of Adie, another who has to be told he is not guaranteed a shirt because of a past reputation.

I've said for few month now that pryce should have been plaing centre with longy and eastmond halfbacks.

Potter has a huge problem next year with the halfback selection. IMO eastmond should be our 7 next year but I don't think he and pryce would work.

I don't think eastmond and wheeler our ready to play together as our halfbacks as it's a big ask for 2 young lads to direct the team.

It's a shame we didn't have the cash to bring a ball playing stand off in to help eastmond out.

IMO pryce would be ideal as our fullback but think wello will have something to say bout that.

Its no good blaming Pyrce, most of the team has been rubbish this season, with possibly Wellens and Graham being the exceptions.

We just have not adjusted to the slow play the balls, Leeds, Huddersfield and Hull KR have adapted well.
We can only manage 2 passes from the ruck area, and as we don,t have a decent kicking game it means our attacking flair has dissapeared, even Gidley has struggled this year. So Pyrce and his loss of form you could say for half the team this season.
If you look at the Grand Final Leeds were getting the ball out wide quicker from 3 passes. We were doing 1 or 2 passes and getting swallowed up every time.
The only positive our defence has been pretty decent for most of the time in the tackling department but defending from kicks we are on dodgy ground.

The key here though is:

Beaten Pack = ineffective half backs.

Fair enough, we were on top against Leeds for the opening 30, but even then with our forwards dominating theirs, the slow PTB and lack of dynamic passing left Longy and Pryce pretty much swamped by the opposition defence.

Even though pryce hasn't played to the level we used to he's still been ok this year.

His defence and work rate IMO has improved but his attack has been poor.

He ain't got the room to play his attacking game. That's down to lack of roll on, slow play the balls or whatever.

I think pryce would be a better playing centre or fullback.

Fancy emailing that to your chairman? He'd walk into our team even in his present form!

2009 = write off ! Non entity for us all season to be fair. Wouldnt get agame for the Lebanon .

Wello wanted to move to 13 for this season but there was nobody to replace him at FB so I suspect the something Wello would have to say would be "Yes please"

If you move Wello to 13 where are Cunningham, Roby and Moore going to play?
