Hey! How dare you start a rumour. You're not a Wigan supporter!

| The way I see this after thinking about it IF Kyle is to leave why flog Smith off out on loan again? Surely Kyle is number 1 half-back for the future and if he's to be leaving IMO whats the point in him running the side and everyone getting used to him next season for him to then leave, surely the most logical idea would be to get Smith in now and give him some game-time running the team, instead of changing the half-back yet again at the end of next season?

Kyle is a good player but doesn't appear to be able to take the knocks, think he will end up on the wing ala Jason Robinson

in my very humble opinion, of what i've seen so far, kyle is not going to be a great 7, it would've shown by now. An absolute fabulous winger he may be though, which we desperately need. I'm starting to think the future of 7 at saints is between matty smith and jamie ellis

Kyle will make a top class scrumhalf and I'm pretty sure on that. He's a massive threat with ball in hand.
He's played pretty well at 7 to be honest. The game at home to Wigan, wolves away he showed even at 20 he's doing more than enough at 7.
IMO he's a direct running 7 like longy was when he 1st played for saints. He needs a ball playing 6 playing alongside him.
I don't think pryce and Kyle will work because none of them are proprer ball players which will be a problem.

| I tell you what, he looks sharp in the centre with ball in hand. Don't think he's big enough to stay there or be put on the wing though. A good coach could exploit his size out wide with big second rowers and some bombs.

You can have small wingers. I never did Jason Robinson any harm.

Il be honest I didn't think kyle could handle playing centre but he's done a very good job against some very good centres.
What Kyle offers in the centre is an attacking threat outwide.
For 90% of this year we've had no attack outwide but with Kyle and gidley in centres and meli playing well it looks much better.

That was over ten years ago when coaching tactics only existed at Saints, Bradford and Wigoon. Today he'd be bombed to death and exposed in the same manner in which Kevin Penny was.

I think he'd be wasted on the wing.
He's a scrumhalf and a very good 1 at that, so lets play him there.
He's slotted in to centre very good but I'd like to see potter switch pryce and eastmond for a spell during the game.
I think eastmond being moved to halfback for the last 10 mins of 1st half could pose problems for a tired pack.

| Don't you think Kyle needs to be more involved than just stuck out on the wing?
He's show against Wigan and Warrington he can find gaps and make breaks down the middle against good sides

Just said same thing. He'd be wasted on the wing.
I'd like to see him get more ball than he does at mo.

| He'll have to play 7 as we don't have anyone else apart from Moore who's been converted into a hooker. I think they will start Kyle at 7 and just use him wherever they think he'll do the most damage.
