| Quote: chris_joynt's_barber "replacements.
danny brough- looks a cert at the moment that he's leaving wakey. a direct replacement that would'nt command HUGE wages like thurston
richie myler- a quality quality young scrum half i.m.o destined to be a great. no disrespect to salford but its only a matter of time before he moves on to bigger and better things
jonathan thurston- probably the worlds best s.h signing him would be up there with anybody saints have ever signed i.m.o but he would want HUGE wages to give up a s.o.o and test shirt to come over to old blighty. i also suspect he or his agent are using our competition to bump up his contract...
then we have baby tyson and wheeler who have been developed by the club and moulded into what they want them to become and by ignoring them for a more established half back(or indeed a aussie superstar) would go against what saints stand for regards young english talent.
my gut feeling is that we will make a move for brough though...'"
I dont see anything in Brough, journeyman pro, not Saints class.
Re Myler, very good young player but only reason is being touted ahead of likes of Eastmond by some is because he is a big fish in a small pond and so stands out in a poor side. Myler IMO is no more talented at this stage than the likes of Tomkins at Wigan or Eastmond and Wheeler at Saints. The difference is that he is starting every game, and playing for the full 80 minutes.
Thurston is world class, and would on paper be an awesome signing, but if he came purely for the money could turn out to be a MAttk King style signing. With high quality juniors coming through i dont think he is a high priority for us. Better to get world class players in the centres were we do have a deficiency. |

Long is in quite a poor position to bargain from. His form has been below his standards, he will be 33 at the end of this season, and we have Eastmond and Smith contracted, so if one doesn't make it we still have a backup. We can also use wilkin and roby at 7 if needed. With pryce and wheeler at 6 our options in the halves are almost limitless. See you at Celtic longy.

I would release Smith and utilise his wage to boost our search for a prop forward and another centre.
I would use Eastmond and Lomax at 7 if Long leaves also. |

We hav'nt seen lomax at all in the first team, so with a season in superleague behind him i'd put smith in first. He'll do well behind a better pack |

Yes we have, and I am not convinced Smith will be a top quality 7 going forward. I would give Eastmond the opportunity first. |

He's supposed to be a standoff, but have heard he could be a full back. Do you think he could possibly switch to 7? |

On limited viewing I think so.
Others who watch the reserves week in week out will be better placed than myself to make a more informed comment. |

| A couple of funny quotes off other boards about them singing long
Warrington
Quote: Dawson "sign him so that he can't score against us'"
Wigan
Quote: Dawson "I cannot beleive this is even being discussed!!!!!!!!!
why not go the whole way and get Tommy Martyn in as a first team coach for Sam??'"
Leeds
Quote: Dawson "Sean Long isn’t a spent force and I hope Leeds nab him.
He’s still the best scrum half in the world when on form as proven with the last win over Australia in Sydney a few years ago. Ok he might not be as consistent in games but I’m sure he gives it his all. As long as he wants to play rugby he’ll want to play it well. You only have to look at our very own Keith Senior whose rugby has gracefully matured with age.
Still I can only dream but I can’t see it happen as we have a brilliant scrum half already whose been in a team that has beaten a team with Sean Long in it. He’ll probably end up at a low club but I’d welcome him to Leeds with open arms!'"
