It's a big decision, i'd take the bigger contract at celtic, but you never know.

Who says Celtic even want him? He's hardly pulling up trees from the games I've seen him in.

Matty's been one of our best players. He transforms the team when he's in the starting 13, and has by far the best kicking game here.

Deep kicking - absolutely. His range and accuracy are as good any in the league. However, excluding Long, the short stuff isn't so clear cut. TBH, I don't think there's much between Smith and Wilkin.

Where have the rumours of eastmonds attitude come from???

I would hope a players attitude does have a baring on his future at saints to be honest.

Wiganers

Rogue, who knows it FACT

Smith can not answer any of those questions positively can he?

Eastmond has far greater potential and has an x-factor about him. He could win a game on his own with a searing break or touchline conversion. In some ways, he is like a young version of Long as a player. If he does half as well as Longy, I'll be happy

with any luck we'll have a better luck tonight, with kyle and matty playing apposing 7's, although the packs they are playing behind do differ somewhat.

Yes he can,

Full Game at 7. Yes
Run of games at 7. Yes, both with us and Celtic.
Played a top team at 7. I'd say a play-off game aginst Leeds counts. Wouldn't you?
Control a game. Yes.
Injury Free. Debatable.


Part of me would be interested to see Celtic beat us tonight, with Matty on form, playing Kyle off the park. What would people's attitudes be then?

dont get your hopes up.

I hope Matty is playing and I hope he is on form. I'd like to get the chance to see what he can do these days. It's ages since March 2008 when I last saw him play!

I'd like to think people would take that on board. People don't [iwant[/i to see Smith to fail.

I wouldn't necesserily expect a complete u-turn on the basis of one game, however.
