Well in S'"
I thought some of the kicks he put in were excellent it's just it wasnt consistent enough and too many times he was in the wrong position on the last which meant he was under too much pressure. Like you say though things like that come with experience, Wigan were in his face all night and he simply wont be used to the game at that kind of speed.

jammers ball playing is very good idea that DA used a few times last year.
As we well know he is our only prop and teams started to single him out for 3 defenders to smash him.
So he draws 3 men in then gives the pass.
I think DA used it to good effect against Leeds in the playoff last year.

Totally agree! Games like last night will make him a better player in the end.

yet he was only player who was going to win that game for us.
At only 20yrs of age I think he is very very important to us.

| Quote: BringBackRugbyLeagueBiff "As a neutral, I will.
His 'momentum' didn't carry him over the line, he was tackled by Prescott (I think) at least a metre before the line and his elbow hit the deck and therefore the tackle was complete.
He then 'shimmied' using his other hand out of Prescott's grasp and went over the line moving after his elbow hit the grass.'"
I thougt the tackle is only complete when forward momentum was halted. Kyle was obviously moving all the way through the slide.
Personnally, I don't see how his 'non ball carrying arm' being involved in pushing himself along is even in the mix.
If he had people hanging off him and used his legs to push himself over the line, no one would say a thing.
Good try. Simple as that.

| So do you really want to see players diving way before the line ala Union style in wet conditions?
10m out in dry conditions and diving does not ensure you hit the line ashmeister.
That is a ridiculous statement you have made.

But it often does when the conditions are wet, as they were last night, and although Kyle did indeed propel himself, it was in one continuous movement which simply fed into the momentum already established by the wet conditions and the impact of the defenders. He wouldn't have scored that try in the dry, at least not without obvious double movement! But it wasn't dry, it was wet. So it was scored and given.

| I think at times especially without the experience of Longy we look rudderless at times and lack a creative spark. Leon is more of an off the cuff rugby player that does drift in and out of the game on occassions.
IMO I would love to Eastmond partnering Longy at Half back with Leon at loose forward. That trio would be mouth watering in the play off series coupled with KC and Roby at hooker.

| Quote: BringBackRugbyLeagueBiff "Ok, maybe the rules need changing?
He made a lot of yards through sliding mind!!'"
How would you like the rules to change? If you slide over the line because its been raining all day, you have to release the ball and do a handstand? If its only been raining for half an hour you get sent off? You play to the conditions, end of.
Eastmond didn't stop because it had been pouring down all day, half of his body ended up over the line. If hes strong enough to drag himself that far with one hand and a prop on his back without stopping, I want to have a bit of whatever he's taking.

| I thought that we lacked creativity and organisation on many occasions, and Eastmond was one of the only players that looked like he could break the line for us, making a half break on a few occasions. We also took an awful lot of wrong options, that needs to be worked on.

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| When is Eastmonds contract up?
We watched the last 20 minutes of the game in the Sports bar at belle view dog track last night.
After the game ended a lady came across to the four of us (3 Wigan fans and 1 Saints fan) to talk to us about Kyle Eastmond.
She was from the Oldham area (her dog had just won one of the races) and had family connections with Kyles junior coach .
She said that Eastmond has had a big offer from Rugby Union and will move next year. I presume that is at the end of the 2010 season, I should have asked.
It will be a sad loss to our game if true.

18821_1298880800.jpg [quote='Fishsta"']I've always thought of McGuire as a good player, and I wouldn't normally wish injury on any player, but there was a certain hint of poetic justice to that.
[/quote]
Another classic:
[quote='Fishsta']You forgot to take off the "Saints Reduction Factor" when calculating the ban.
Standard suspension / Saints Reduction Factor = Actual ban for Saints player.
Therefore (2 / 3) = 0.666
0.666 < 1 therefore actual ban equals "less than 1 match".
Therefore ZERO.[/quote]
