Pryce just doesn't look interested anymore, he seems to have taken a leaf out of his brothers book. Stick him on the wing or in the centres till his contract runs out.

One solution could be to go and watch another team, or maybe just support your team that lost 1 game...

The sad fact of the playoffs is that you can lose 7-10 games a season and still reach the grand final..I bet Brian Mc is cacking his pants after Friday's loss!

Spot on
I agree with all that

Id go for

Wellens
Lomax
Gidley
Wheeler
Meli (if he comes back)
Wilkin
Eastmond
Graham
Cunningham
Puletua
Soliola
Clough
Roby

Moore
Fa'asavalu
Fozzard
Pryce (He needs to be dropped asap)

I also think Cunningham needs take on the line as much as possible before Moore comes on.
Even if it means he does shorter spells

We all know no that this is going to be a long hard season and at some time Potter is going to get the sack!! Lets get behind the boys and not boo them!! group-hug.gif group-hug.gif group-hug.gif group-hug.gif

My team would be

Wellens..Pryce..Gidley..Eastmond..Meli..Wheeler..Wilkin

Fozzard..K.C...Graham..Soliola..Clough..Flannery

Roby..Puletua..Hargreaves..Fa'asavalu

We need creativity at half back and Wheeler and Wilkin have it...let Eastmond create havock down the Centre and we dont half miss Meli when he doesn't play.....for his drives!! Come on boys we have got till September to get it going!!

I dint really see what the fascination is with people wanting roby at 13. He isn't big enough for a running game and doesn't have the natual skills to be a creative 13. Either we go with KC and Roby or KC and Moore. No place for 3 hookers in the squad.

I don't blame roby but he is as effective as wellens at centre and KC in the second row, both will do a job but you aren't playing to their strengths.

Quote: Saint #1 "To the bold bit - what was the alternative?'"

Leon pryce has, at a guess, played a hundred games for Bradford on the wing. He wasn't doing anything at SO so why not put him on the wing and play either Moore or roby at stand off. Both have played there a number of times before. Roby is one player who couldve dragged us back into the game.

Eastmond-Pryce seems on the face of it not to be the ideal halfback combination. After all the fuss about Eastmond playing for England last year, its a bit unfair to criticise him too much, but if he wants to be a scrum half he needs to develop his passing and organising game substantially.

problem is they are both running half backs, you need one running and one passing half back ideally

Quote: Saint Simon "problem is they are both running half backs, you need one running and one passing half back ideally'"


Why can't you do both? Just because you are nippy doesn't mean you can't pass.

I don't get this viewpoint of Eastmond not having a passing game, he does. He's got a better passing game than Long now, he's also got a better kicking game than Long did at his age. What he doesn't have is the experience to make the right choice at the right time. He was always going to be a step down from Long in his first season as first choice seven, anyone who expected different is either naive or a fool. He still needs to learn the game, no matter how talented he is.

He would benefit from having a more experienced organising half back next to him though, just as Long did from Martyn. But that doesn't mean he's only a runner.
