Kyle Eastmond will be 22 in July btw.
He wasn't even taking on the line, never mind organising! Since he could hoof the ball down the pitch, clearly his ankles weren't giving him any problems. So there were no excuses for him to hang back like he did, just passing out (badly) for his team mates to get bashed. He could have kicked some of those lovely chip kicks he used to do when we were pounding away at Wire's line. But he didn't. Lee Gaskell was making far more effort in his third full match at first grade but I bet he isn't paid anywhere near the amount Kyle Eastmond is.

He was prior to his injury last year.

Regarding Eastmond......
He's not going to get much off season is he? Maybe a couple of weeks, but in the event that we were to get to the Grand Final (or even just the the play offs) he'll finish at the beginning of october/end september and only have a few weeks to train/recouperate/etc etc. Seems a bit strange to me, is he going to be nipping down to Bath once a month to train with them? ?!?!

Last year the Ariva Premiership started on 10th September which is right in the middle of our Play Off's.

Obviously the reason Eastmond hasn't gone now is because Bath didn't want to pay the transfer fee so they're "willing" to accept that he won't have much time to prepare.
I expect he'll be making many "unofficial" visits to Bath during this Super League season, familiarizing himself with his new surroundings, teammates and maybe even training with them  .

| I think it's more likely that they accept that he'll be spending most of his time sat in their reserves. He'll also not need to get fit as he'll have had a season with us, what's the need for pre season training?

too true. See him on Raw last night?
Put Cena to shame. Get the feeling there might be some real heat there. If not he is selling it well.

Hope he does and get's injured. The comp Bath would have to pay would dwarf a transfer fee (Ithink)

He'll be fit, no doubt, but he'll have played a whole season of Super League and then be going on to begin a new season of rugby union almost instantly? Surely his body will need a rest, especially given his "biscuit bones" status.

| Quote Billinge_Lump="Billinge_Lump"Let's not forget he wasn't due back from injury yet, a factor to his performances that does not appear to be factored into this 'greed' argument.
How many other 20 year old players play or played with the organising ability that many are expecting from Eastmond, and the name Murphy is banned. Long certainly didn't, Martyn did most of that for him. I think we'll see another player once Pryce is back and he hits fitness. Of course that probably won't be good enough for many who'll try and hound him out of the club before season end, even if it means that the club is poorer for it. Of course he may not bother and put in half hearted performances, in that case the best case is to get rid as soon as possible, but people are condemning him for something that hasn't happened yet. Players play with players going elsewhere every year. It's part of the game and they know it, so if he's not trying 100%, they'll let him know, so I can't see it being a major problem for them.'"
Are you Saddened using another sig?

| He is not a huge loss to you IMO, Leon is what makes you tick when on the island!!
Eastmond is very over rated and I feel sure he will be back to RL very quickly for the simple reason he will fail to find anyone who panders him like saints did..
as a saints fan i would feel very let down by him personally

Tbh, I don't really care what he does when the season has finished and he goes over there.
